  Description

  This is Francesco, I live in Romagna (Italy) and I travel a lot to the US for medical reasons. I have two kids and I would like them to have the chance to improve their English language interacting with a mother tongue. I joined this community because I am looking for a Workawayers who is willing to come to my place and live with us for a few weeks a year in order to have an exchange of experiences and to get my kids a mother tongue to talk with. I have a dog and I would love if my guest would be available to take him for a walk or spend some time with him. He is a Golden Retriever very nice with everyone, he only wants to play everytime!!
  I can offer a single room with private bathroom to my guests, I have had several guests from different organizations at my place and I took them around to see many different Italian places… I am available to take them around to visit because I like to travel. :-)
