Description
Hello! We're a family with two boys of 15 and 13 years old and we leave very close to Iseo lake and Brescia, a lively city close to many famous places (Milan, Verona, Venice, Garda Lake). We're are a friendly and active family (especially in summer when our sons don't go to school) and at the week-end, we usually walk in the mountains close to our village.
We already hosted several times; once for a moth and the other time for two weeks (the kids were use to go to English summer camp).
We've also got a friendly dog (vizsla).

We just need that you teach them English 2/4 hours every day from Monday to Friday.
Saturday and Sunday will be always free. We're really flexiable about the schedule therefore you'll be able to organize your trips.
We ask you to keep clean the place where you'll sleep and a very a little help with housekeeping.
