  Description

  Hi everyone!
  
  My name is Giulia, and I'm 45 years old. I live with my family in a little town in Northern Italy, 20 kms from Brescia and 10 kms from the lake of Garda.
  
  I have two daughters, a husband and a red cat :)
  
  I speak fluently English, German and Russian, and love foreign languages!
  
  We live in a big house in Montichiari.
  
  From Monday to Saturday we have to get up at 6.30 am, as Sofia has to go to secondary school (she's 12 years old), while Stella attends the primary school (she's 7)
  
  Both the children end school at 1pm, then we have lunch together and they do their homeworks.
  
  The girls also have other activities, Stella swims and plays volleyball, Sofia goes to a dance course and she rides horses.
  
  Usually we have dinner all together (my man comes back from work at 6pm), we watch a movie or we read a book and the girls go to bed at 9.30 pm :)
  
  Our house is rather big. It's on three stocks, on the 1st floor we have a kitchen, the living room and little toilette. On the second floor, we have 3 rooms and a big bathroom. As the girls sleep together, the au pair girl will have her personal room (sharing bathroom with us women, as my man uses the bathroom downstairs).
  
  We also have a big basement with the music room of my man, as he's a musician (he plays the electric guitar
  
  I am a teacher and I teach both in the public school and in a private school, so I have very little free time. In my free time I like reading, watching movies in original language or going out with my friends
  
  Oreste loves music, and in his free time he loves playing his guitars and listening to all kind of music
  
  Sofia loves dancing, she reads a lot, and she also like chatting with friends on the mobile and watching tv. Stella loves playing outside, skating and watching youtube videos :)

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We live in Montichiari, which is 20 kms from Brescia. In our town there are a lot of services: lots of schools, supermarkets, a library, some parks, lots of restaurants, bars and shops. The nearest city is Brescia and it can be reached by bus (30 minutes) or by metro (bus+metro). Brescia is the main city of our district and it's very big (250.000 citizens)
  
  We love Montichiari because it's very close to the Lake of Garda, as well. Desenzano del Garda is only 15 kms far away, and reachable by bus
  
  Italian most beautiful cultural centres (Milan, Venice) are close and reachable by train in a hour!
  
  I myself am a teacher, so I can help with learning Italian :)
  
  Vi aspettiamo!
