  Description

  Hi my name is Joanna and I live in Stargard, Poland with my husband Zbyszek (Zibi), two daughters - Zuzia (Susie) and Zosia (Sophie) and a son - Jasiu (Johnny). The latter is special needs with Lamb-Shaffer Syndrome. We also live with my parents. I used to travel a lot (with my parents around Europe and then with AIESEC (Prague for 3 months) and alone (US for 7 months) but can't anymore because I have a family now, and we haven't left Poland for 17 years now (not counting visits to my family in Hamburg, Germany or Sweden). So I would like to experience the cultural exchange this way. Could use some help around the house maybe too. The main idea is to interact with my kids - mainly the girls to teach them about your country and English,maybe Spanish.

  Help

  Looking for help with language practise (with my teenaged girls), a little babysitting (for my youngest one) and help around the house. When hosting you I will be responsible for cooking which I normally don't do (usually my mum does it), so I will need a little hand with that. We have two houses so maybe a little gardening could be involved... I will be with you most of the time. Maybe we can manage to do some renovating...
