    Description

    Hello future workawayer!

    We are the Soyamar family, a lively and busy household consisting of six members. I am the mother of five wonderful children. Our home is filled with energy, love, and plenty of adventure!

    Our days are packed with activities. There's always something to do, and we often involve each other in our daily tasks and fun moments.

    We have a special wish: my oldest two children and I want to learn Spanish! We are looking for someone who speaks Spanish and would enjoy living with us for a short time. Not only to help us with the language but also to share an amazing experience with our family.

    We seek someone who is enthusiastic, and isn’t afraid to adapt to our busy life. In return, we offer a warm home, lots of laughter, and the chance to be part of our family. We want you to feel truly at home here and enjoy learning the language and our culture.

    If this sounds like the perfect experience for you, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We can’t wait to meet you and create unforgettable memories together!
