  Description

  Hi Guys, We are two parents: Cat & Sergio and two kids: Eliot (7) & Teo (11). We have been hosting online rental guests and Couchsurfers for over 12 years now and are looking for some help with the kids, around the house and for general cultural exchange!
  
  We live less than 5 minutes from the beach and right next to the train station which takes you into Barcelona in less than an hour. We have a yoga space in the attic and I teach English classes to groups from home.
  
  We're a homeschooling, vegetarian, mostly vegan household. We enjoy music, yoga, philosophy, self-development and personal growth, veggie cooking, walks in nature, socializing, dancing, festivals, learning languages, learning in general, board games and travelling. We play a few instruments and love to sing and play music as well.
  
  We're looking for open-minded, flexible, hard-working people to join our family! :)
  
  Right now we're giving priority to language, music exchanges and people who love to hang out with children.
  
  If you fit this bill, get in touch!

  Help

  We are open to all kinds of help, but specifically we´re interested in travellers who can help us with our children´s education, with cooking and light cleaning, DIY projects, language exchange and musical enrichment! Some ideas we have that could be possibilities for this exchange:
  
  -Playing board games in your language with our children so that they (and we) could all learn and practice!
  -Helping out with the organization and cooking of meals.
  -Guitar, Ukelele, Banjo, Percussion, Piano or Flute classes
  -Light cleaning, gardening, housework (we´ve got a big house and yoga studio and could always use a helping hand!)
  -General babysitting, art projects, and trips to the beach with the kids
  -Digital tasks
  -Potential house and cat sitting opportunities if we click!

  Our house is brilliantly located, on the R2 south train line, which takes you into Barcelona in 45 minutes, Tarragona in 30 and Sitges in 12. We are within walking distance from the beach and the mountains, and have a swimming pool and a lovely garden with an olive tree. The house is large and also has a yoga studio on the top floor, which you are free to use for your personal practice anytime!
