    Description

    Hi, I am Margo, my husband Arek, our little boy Alex, and our newborn baby Vicky.

    We could get some help with all kinds of "projects" at home like cooking, tidying up, but mostly playing with our toddler.

    We are multilingual family and we are looking for someone who speaks Mandarin or Spanish. We would love to have an extra "family member" who likes art, dancing and music.

    We also have some old Portuguese furnitures to renovate and give them new life, so if you like this kind of help it's also an option.

    We live by the beach in Lagos. We have moved to Portugal 2 years ago. Our house is 2 minutes walking distance to Meia Praia beach, 10 minutes walk to a forest, and 25 minutes to Lagos Marina. There is a beautiful Ocean view from the terraces. We have self-contained garage space that is converted into two bedroom an apartment. You would occupy one of the rooms where you would have your space and privacy.
