  Description

  Hello !
  
  We look forward to welcoming an english speaking workawayer for a period of about four to five weeks for the summer 2025 from june to july 20th 2025 or in august. We would be happy to show you Quebec city, our culture and our family life!
  
  With a cultural experience we would also like to practice our English and maybe teach some French, if you are interested.
  
  We are a french-speaking family of 4 (2 adults, 2 child - 11 and 14 years old) but we also speak english. Our daughter understands English pretty well and our son still needs to learn.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Quebec City has a lot to offer! It's in Canada, but it has an historic district with a French flair. You could learn about French Canadian culture and if you like music, you could enjoy the summer festival with various shows.
  
  The city also has museums and various historical sites. Nature is not far away and several sites offers hiking and beautiful landscapes.
  
  The St. Lawrence River, about 10 min from our house, also offers beautiful places to walk and relax.

  Help

  The person we are looking for will take care of our 2 children (11-14 years old) about 5 hours during the day (monday to friday) and will be able to take advantage of their evenings and weekends for the discovery and activities of their choice.
  
  We live in our house in the suburbs, on the south shore of Québec city. We are not far from the city (about 15 minutes) and there is a bus service to Quebec city. There is much to discover in the city and around. Downtown Quebec feels like Europe and you could discover the rich history of this region of Canada.
