Description
Happy couple, married 45 years. Semi-Retired musician and interior designers. We are caring for our 93-year old parent and have wonderful friends and family. Not looking for a laborer for specific "projects", but someone that will join our family for a period and participate in our life (cooking, cleaning, swimming, etc.). I want to practice and improve my Italian and would like to arrange at least an hour each day to teach our grand kids some Italian. Also (HOPEFULLY) some cooking. Would hope to expect 3-4 hours per day helping us with whatever.
Note: Because of our living situation, we would prefer a female guest at this time. Also, at this time, we can only host a guest for about 1-2 weeks. This might work if you have other destinations planned.

Help
Mostly looking for opportunity to practice and speak Italian and learn Italian culture and cooking. We are a well-traveled couple, caring for our active 90-year old parents. Would like to include guest completely in our extended family of kids and grand kids and friends. Perhaps an hour or two a day specifically teaching Italian to our two, young grand kids. Must meet (online) and speak in advance to assure compatibility all the way around. No smokers, please. Because of our living situation, we would prefer a female guest at this time.
Also, at this time, we can only host a guest for about 1 week. This might work if you have other destinations planned.
