    Description

    My name is Hugo and I live with my wife Isabel and our daughter Olivia. We are a young couple who, after traveling around the world, decided to settle down in Jerez de la Frontera (where I grew up), in the south of Spain. We live with our 2-year-old daughter and a cat. We are looking for a native English-speaking girl who enjoys spending time with children, as the main task will be helping us care for our little one, going with her to the play to the park and teach her your language. It’s also important that you like animals as the cat is the king in the house :D I am a farmer and work on a farm about 10 km from Jerez, which you are welcome to visit if you’d like to experience life in the countryside.

    On weekends we often go on short trips around the area, and you’ll be more than welcome to join us and discover the beauty and culture of Andalusia together.

    In return, we offer you the chance to become part of our family, share our culture, enjoy good food, the comfort of our home, and an authentic experience in southern Spain.

    We would like a commitment from your side of at least 1 month (ideally more).
    Our main goal is that you become Olivia´s older daughter :)

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We have travelled a lot before becoming parents. We love to talk about other countries, about trips, about foreign cuisine (we love to eat food from everywhere). Jerez is a main spot if you are into flamenco, wine or horses, with big events throughout the year in relation to those subjects. Plus, the beach is 20 minutes away. It's a very well located place to discover Cadiz province and also other cities.

    You will have your own room, with a new bed, a new wardrobe, a new desk. A bathroom in the corridor almost only for yourself.
    We have breakfast, lunch and dinner most of the times at home, so you will be one more in the family. We'll put another plate on the table for you. If you can cook wel'll be more than happy to taste it :) They will have the three meals with us. If not possible due to work/studies/schedules they will have full access to the food in the fridge and in the storage room to cook for themselves.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We live pretty iun the city centre, you can walk or ride anywhere from here. Train station is a 20-minute walk and takes you everywhere, including the beach. And the airport is a 15-min drive.
    We are very calm and quiet and would rather prefer a movie or a book.

    You'll be our older daughter so we are ok if you go out at night sometimes, but if your plan is to party hard every night this is not the place for you.
