Description
We are a family of 4 with 2 children 11 and 13 years old. We have been traveling with our family around the world living with familes and we would like to give back this wonderful experience and keep meeting people and families from around the globe in our hometown.
We live in a detached house with a small garden in Cardedeu which is a town 30min from Barcelona. It is a very convinient place to explore Barcelona city center (30min by train) or the beaches or mountains around us (30min by car).
We can accomodate couples or families up to 4 people and families with children of similar ages like ours are specially welcome.
Marta and me are teachers of primary and secondary school and we are fluent in Catalan, Spanish, English and can speak a little bit of German and French.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are an easy going family and our visitors will live with a catalan family. We are very interested on getting to know people from abroad and sharing our way of life with them. We love having BBQ's or making paellas in our garden or sharing a cold drink at the end of the day.
Cardedeu is a very convinient location at the foot of the Montseny national park, 30min drive from the beaches and 30min by train from Barcelona.
