    Description

    We are a friendly bilingual family of 4 people: my husband Pablo, me, Aurélie, and our two girls, Violeta with 11 years old and Emma with 8 years old. I´m a french teacher in Sevilla, and Pablo works as a philosophy teacher and also loves gardening.
    We would love to welcome you into our home, since the experience of receiving people from abroad has always been very enriching for us ( we used to have volunteers), and could provide us with invaluable help in our busy lives. Your presence and participation in our family life would allow our girls to learn your language and have a great time!

We love the intercultural exchange, we really enjoy learning from others people.That's why talkative travelers, keen on sharing ideas and experiences, with a good faculty to adapt and some independence, would be welcomed!
    We live close to Seville, in a very pleasant town, so you would have the possibility of enjoying the big city while being able to take refuge in the countryside after your visits and walks through the capital of Seville.

    We live in the countryside, in a nice and peaceful place but, with the girls and the work, we never stop..As this year Pablo will travel to another city for his work, I´ll be alone all the week with the girl, and I would need a little help, basically to take care of them on the afternoon after school, take them by car to some extracurricular activities, help them with their schoolwork, practice English, do crafts) and, at home, with small household tasks (folding clothes, helping to cook, picking up the table, tidy up the girls' rooms...). If you like gardening o manual labors (painting furnitures..), your help will also be welcome!
    On some occasions, you would stay with them in the afternoon/evening so that I could go out with my friends ;)

    As for the hours, it would be mainly in the afternoon, but we are also flexible, and this schedule also could change a bit, depending on the plans of both.

    Accommodation

    You will have a nice mobile home separate from the main house, but next to it, in order to have more personal space and privacy. From May to October you could also enjoy refreshing swims in our swimming pool.

    Regarding meals, we usually share the midday meal and for greater freedom for all, at night, as you´ll have a kitchen in the mobile home, you´ll have the possibility of cooking with the products that we will provide you. We usually eat a lot of vegetarian products.

    We are in a country setting, with beautiful views of the Andalusian countryside, inside the village at the same time, as in 10 minutes by foot we can reach the center of the village. Sevilla is also quite close by bus.

    If you are looking for a peaceful place to recharge your batteries, this is your place!
