  Description

  Hello, my son Luis, my friend Inma, and I live at home. We live simply in the countryside, growing a small organic vegetable garden. We also have nine chickens and three cats. We live very close to the sea, within walking distance. We're close to another surfing beach. The area is very quiet and used to be part of the old monastery in the area. We'd love to welcome you!

La zona es muy tranquila era parte del antiguo monasterio de la zona. Estaremos encantados de recibiros!!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  The person who comes to the house will be able to practice Spanish on the one hand, they will have the opportunity to learn how to make cider if it is in October, we also have our organic garden and we do not love Asturian gastronomy. The beach next to the house is good for surfing.
  
  La persona que venga a casa podrá practicar el español por un lado, tendrá oportunidad de aprender a mayar sidra si esta en octubre, también tenemos nuestra huerta ecológica y no encanta la gastronomía Asturiana. La playa que tenemos cerca es buena para hacer surf.

  Help

  Mainly, I'm looking for people with a good level of English who are eager to spend time with Luis, who has a calm personality. I'm not looking for someone to sit down and teach classes, but rather someone who can play with him while he learns the language naturally. I'm also looking to help with chores around the house and garden. We only need about 15 hours of help per week. It's important to us that you know we don't use screens at home, or very little. It's important to our way of teaching that we foster play and creativity. We would offer breakfast and lunch in exchange for 15 hours of work.
  
  Principalmente ayudar con el ingles de mi hijo, por eso busco personas que tengan buen nivel de ingles y que tenga ganas de estar con Luis, que es de carácter tranquilo, no busco alguien que se siente a dar clases, sino mas bien jugar con el al mismo tiempo que aprende el idioma de modo natural. También colaborar con las tareas de la casa y huerta. Solo necesitamos unas 15 horas a la semana de ayuda. Para nosotros es importante que sepáis que no utilizamos pantallas en casa o muy poco. Es importante para nuestro modo de educar, que sea desde el juego y la creatividad. Ofreceríamos desayuno y comida a cambio de 15 horas de trabajo.

  What else ...

  We live 20 km from Gijón and 12 km from Villaviciosa. The bus to these two cities is a 3 km walk from our house. We also go into the city from time to time and can share a ride. You can walk to the beach in 20 minutes. If you like the mountains and the sea, Asturias is the perfect place.
  
  Vivimos a 20 km de Gijón y 12 km de Villaviciosa. El autobús para ir a estas dos ciudades esta a 3 km caminando de casa.
