    Description

    We are Eszter & Stefano, an Italian-Hungarian family who moved from Italian Switzerland to German Switzerland two years ago and we manage an alpine Guesthouse with a hotel & a restaurant.
    So we need some help for our two daughters to learn the German and English languages, check their homework, and keep in touch with their teachers at school. If you want, sometimes you can go with the girls on trips to the mountains. In this case, we offer you a free ticket for the Rigi trains.
    The girls are 12 & 14 years old, and they have already some basis in the German language.

    In the family, we speak Italian & Hungarian, we are 4 people and 2 cats and also our Cook lives with us in the house.
    We need your help for 4-5 months, starting from January 2023.

    We are looking for seeing you soon,
    Best regards from Rigi-Burggeist
    Eszter, Stefano, Zoe & Camilla

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We offer you a truly unique experience: living in an alpine refuge in one of the most characteristic mountains in Switzerland (Rigi). You will be able to see how to live in one of the most traditional places in this land. Your jobs will not be difficult and will take only some hours a day and the rest of the day you can spend exploring these magnificent mountains or taking the cable car, you can reach the country where you can reach the city of Lucerne or Zurich in thirty minutes by train.
    We are looking for a person who is independent and will help us with the work requested above.

    We are a family of 4: Stefano, Eszter and our two daughters aged 14 and 12.
    We moved from Lugano (a city in the Canton of Ticino) to live in an alpine refuge in the Canton of Schwyz.
    We live and work in this refuge all year round and to reach the nearest village we have to take the cable car: our two daughters take it every day to go to school!
    It's certainly not a common thing, but it's a lot of fun: we don't get bored!
    We are looking for a person, who will help us teach our daughters the German language and also with some help around the house.
