Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Spain in Austria. You can immerse in the Spanish culture while you are in Austria, speaking both languages, or English too.

We have live in Spain, Germany and South East Asia and love travelling and living abroad.

Our kids attend an alternative school, we follow since they are very young a quite alternative path in raising them, trusting on their capacity to find their own way to learn and just be theirselves, that means for example that they have no homework. If you are interested on unschooling and alternative ways of raising kids, we will be glad to talk about this exciting topic.

Help
If you enjoy talking and playing with kids of different ages, you are welcome!!

We mainly need help with our kids, a very easy one: just play and talk. If you are English native speaker would be great to talk to them in English -if you are not native speaker it can work too :-)
They can speak back in Spanish or German and you can learn it too, if you want.
They love table games and playing outside.

Otherwise we aren’t very skilled with gardening and our garden needs a couple of lovely hands. If you enjoy it, it would be a perfect help for us. But if not, it is also ok.

Helping with cooking will be also great!!

This host offers a language exchange
My husband and me are translators, we love languages! Would love to speak English with native or not native speakers - if you don't speak enough Spanish or German. Spanish is our mother tongue. Adrian is bilingual in German and Spanish. Our 3 kids and me, Isabel, speak both languages too.
Accommodation
You will have an own room. Bathroom will be shared. We would also like to share meals with you, a great opportunity to talk and be all together, and it would be great if you help cooking them some times :-)

We eat everything, trying to be healthy and avoiding white sugar as much as possible.
What else ...
We live 50 min away from Vienna by car, 15 min away from Krems and der Donau and 15 min to Sankt Pölten. It is a nice and quiet area, plenty of bike trails along the Danube and Traisen rivers. We can lend you a bike and you can use train or bus to move around, train station is quite close to us and it takes around 1,5 hours to arrive in Vienna, 30 min in Sankt Pölten.
There are also a lot of hiking trails in the wine yards hills. You find a lake 30 min walking from us, a wunderschön place to relax and take a bath from May onwards…
