    Help

    This year we would love help at home to make the repairs and general maintenance that we never have time to do (DIY, carpentry, painting...), take care of the garden...
    We would love also help as a babysitter. Our daughters are active and creative girls who love painting, writing, inventing choreographies end theater plays. They can play for hours!
    English conversation through common life activities with them would be great as well to help them to improve English.

    If you know about photography and computer, we would be delighted to receive your help, for example, to organize all the family photos and create albums.
    Well... It's about seeing together what helps us as a family and what your expectations are and finding the best solution for everyone!

    We are also travelers of body and soul, so we would be delighted to share our language (mother language Italian and Spanish), the stories, our projects, our passion for childhood and pedagogy and the circles and communities of which we are part

    Este año nos encantaría ayuda en casa para conseguir hacer los arreglos que nunca tenemos tiempo de hacer (DIY carpintería, pintura...), cuidar y mantener el jardin, ayuda como babysitter, mejorar el inglés de nuestras hijas con vuestra conversación en las actividades cotidianas. A nuestras hijas les encanta crear, dibujar, inventar coreografías y obras de teatro, los juegos de mesa... Pueden jugar durante horas , como babysitter solo hay que regalarles presencia!

    Si eres un mago de la fotografía y la informática (o sabes un poco, también vale) estaríamos encantados de recibir tu ayuda por ejemplo para organizar todas las fotos familiares y crear álbumes.
    Y bueno... Se trata de ver juntos que nos ayuda en familia y cuáles son vuestras expectativas y encontrar la mejor solución para todos!

    Viajeros de cuerpo y alma, estamos encantados de compartir nuestra lengua (madre lengua italiano y español), los cuentos, nuestros proyectos, nuestra pasión por la infancia y la pedagogía y los círculos y comunidades de los que somos parte

    Accommodation

    We have a private room and bathroom on the ground floor of our house, with privacy and independence, connected to the garden. We can organize meals as we think is better for everybody when we get to know each other, cooking together, separately, mixing both. We would like you to feel independent and also part of the family life.
