Help
Dear workawayers,
We are looking preferably for a NATIVE FRENCH SPEAKING Workawayer although English native also accepted, to help our 16 years old daughter reading music lessons also singing would be desirable but not a must.
We are looking for an enthusiastic person who is talkative, open-minded, smily, responsible, honest, independent and not lazy!
We speak Català, Spanish, English and French.
She is very busy so you would have most of the day free.
We all love cycling, walking and going to the beach. The girls practice swimming and artistic gymnastics and they do competitions.
In return we OFFER:
your own room,
bed&breakfast per working day,
clean sheets, towels
free wi-fi connection if you bring your own lap top
Spanish speaking practice with us, parents, we will love to exchange your mother tongue with us too, (always french with the girls), use of shared swimming pool.
WORKING HOURS may vary but you will have mornings free.
We will need you more on Saturdays and Sundays . Hours can vary and we may do excurssions together, visiting museums, cycling, etc...
We live in a nice city with all amenities, in the outskirts of Barcelona and very well connected to the city by unexpensive public transport. (About 25' to Barcelona by train or coach).
P.D.: if you have any health problems or you are taken any medication, please let us know. It's not a problem but we like to know that in advance. We recommend you to bring a private medical insurance or a European health card.
We need proof of your travel to make a commitment with you, so we'll like to see a scan of your flight,train tickets in advance. Never buy tickets without confirming the dates with us first!! Always double check with us our availability before buying your tickets. And only buy your tickets after having had a skype conversation with us, have made all the questions you need and have made the decision that this is the placement you want.
We are very anti smoking and regret that we DO NOT offer places to smokers. Can't stand the smell !
Two of us are vegetarian so if you follow a vegetarian diet is not a problem at all.
We will try to make the most fun and enjoyable exchange for our workawayers who come with lots of enthusiasm towards a cultural exchange and who respect our house and the roules.
Please bear in mind that daily routines in Spain may have different times from your home country.
Looking forward to hear from you soon!
