    Hello, we are a couple with a 6 year old son who would like to find a (native) English speaking girl for my son to improve his English. At home we speak English as my husband is Scottish and I Catalan. We live in a house 20 km from the capital Barcelona, in a quiet and pleasant place, close to shops.

    Vivim en una casa a 20 km de Barcelona capital, en un lloc tranquil i agradable, a prop de botigues.
