  Description

  We are a family of 5, twins of 2 years old and a 4 year old. We live close to the sea in one of Europe's prettiest Islands. If you want to learn Spanish and or improve your English we use both languages in the house. The house is usually busy but fun, and we are often dancing in the front room or hunting for beetles in the garden.

  Accommodation

  Large Room in a house that looks out to mountains. A fairly large garden and a rooftop that has sea and mountain views. The beach is a 10 minute walk away and there is easy access to some countryside walking. The house is busy with kids most days but quiet in the evenings and when they are having siesta! We would provide food, though we eat mostly fruit and vegetables with some fish occasionally.

  What else ...

  There a some amazing beaches a walk or bike ride away (you can borrow one of ours), plus a really impressive network of walking trails that go for hours.
  We live a relatively easy life,. At the moment me (the Dad) stays at home and runs the house and kids, then Mum is away a few days a week flying as cabin crew. Our days are spent either playing at home in the garden, on the beach or in the local square, plus we will be off most weekends for a day trip to another part of the Island.
  We hope that someone can slot into the homelife here and find there own rythym, we try not to be too prescriptive about chores etc, its mostly a case of mucking in with what needs to be done.
