Description
Hi there!
We are an active, outdoorsy family based in Randaberg, on the scenic southwest coast of Norway. We are passionate about nature, sports, movement, and continuous learning.
Right now, our main goal is language immersion—we are specifically looking for native or fluent speakers of Spanish or Chinese (Mandarin) to join us. We want someone who will naturally integrate language practice into our daily routines, conversations, and family activities.
In exchange, we offer a welcoming family environment and an authentic Norwegian coastal experience. If you love spending your weekends outside—hiking, exploring the coastline, enjoying nature, and staying physically active—you will feel right at home with us. We love sharing good conversations, discovering new perspectives, and making our guests feel like part of the household.
If you are energetic, communicative, passionate about the outdoors, and excited to help us level up our Spanish or Chinese, we would love to hear from you! -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Authentic Coastal Life & Outdoor Experience
We view hosting as a genuine two-way cultural exchange. While you help us immerse ourselves in Spanish or Chinese, we offer you an authentic look into active daily life in coastal Norway.
Here is what you can look forward to sharing with us:
The Norwegian "Friluftsliv" culture: We embrace outdoor life in all kinds of weather. You can join us for coastal hikes, cycling trips, and exploring scenic nature trails.
Family & local insights: You will be treated as part of the household, experiencing everyday routines, local culture, and seasonal outdoor habits firsthand.
Knowledge sharing: We are happy to share our experience with healthy living, fitness routines, outdoor exploration, and local traditions, while learning all about your home culture, perspectives, and cuisine.
We love open conversations around the table, learning new ways of seeing the world, and building lasting international friendships! -
Help
Language Practice & Daily Life Sharing
Our primary focus is language practice in Spanish or Chinese (Mandarin). We are looking for around 4–5 hours of engagement per day, 5 days a week, mostly integrated into our daily routine.
Your main tasks will include:
Conversational practice: Speaking Spanish or Chinese with us during meals, walks, and daily household activities to create a natural immersion environment.
Structured practice: Short, casual daily sessions focused on vocabulary, pronunciation, and practical phrasing.
Light daily help: Lending a hand with light household routines, preparing meals together, or keeping shared spaces tidy.
Weekends & Free Time
Weekends are completely your free time, but if you enjoy being active, you are very welcome to join us on outdoor trips—hiking, exploring the coast, cycling, and enjoying the Norwegian landscape. We want this to be an active, mutually enriching exchange! -
