  Beschreibung

  Hi! We are a Chinese family of three living in Osaka, Japan. My husband and I both work in education, and we have a 10-year-old son who is cheerful, curious and loves drawing, crafts, football and making things.
  
  We are a multilingual family. At home, we speak Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese and Teochew (Chaoshan dialect), while our son also speaks Japanese at school. So language and cultural exchange are already a natural part of our everyday life.
  
  We would love to welcome someone from another country into our home for a cultural and language exchange. We hope you can spend some time chatting, playing games or doing activities with our son in English, while also sharing your culture and everyday life with our family. In return, we would be happy to share our languages, Chinese culture and our experience of everyday life in Japan with you.
  
  We live in a quiet residential area of Osaka with convenient public transportation. Tennoji is only three subway stops away, and Umeda is about ten stops away. Kyoto and Nara are also easy to visit from here.
  
  You will have your own room, and we also have a bicycle that you can use to explore Osaka during your free time.
  
  We hope this will be more than just a place to stay. We would love it to be a relaxed cultural exchange where we can learn from each other, share our languages and cultures, and enjoy everyday life together.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  At home, we speak Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese and Teochew, and our son also speaks Japanese. If you are interested, we would be happy to share our languages, Chinese culture, food and everyday family life with you.
  
  We also hope to introduce you to everyday life in Osaka beyond the usual tourist experience. You can explore our local neighbourhood, parks, shops, markets and community life, and experience what it is like to live in a quiet residential area of Osaka.
  
  My husband and I both work in education, so we also enjoy exchanging ideas about education, children and life in different countries.
  
  Most importantly, we hope to learn from each other. We would love to hear about your country, culture, language, food and way of life, and for our son to grow up meeting people from different parts of the world.

  Arbeit

  We are mainly looking for someone who enjoys spending time with children and is happy to communicate with our 10-year-old son in English.
  
  There is no formal teaching required. We would love for English to become a natural part of his everyday life through conversations, playing games, drawing, crafts, cooking, outdoor activities, or simply spending time together.
  
  You are also welcome to share your own culture, hobbies, food, music or anything you enjoy with us. If you are interested in Chinese language or culture, we would be very happy to share that with you too.
  
  We hope the exchange feels relaxed and natural rather than like a job. The most important thing for us is genuine communication, cultural exchange and enjoying time together.
  
  Maximum 2-3 hours a day, 5 days a week
