    Description

    Looking for someone to start ASAP (and also open to hearing from people with a later starting date).
    Please only write if you can stay 5+ months.

    We are a family of 5 with three young kids aged 5, 3 and 2. We love swimming in the local beaches, rivers, waterfalls and spend lots of time in our pool. We love our family dinners and sharing our daily highlights. We love sitting on our balcony and watching the wild sunset bird shows. We love going kayaking, canoeing and surfing. We love going hiking, camping and listening to live music. We love spending time at home doing arts and crafts, reading books and drinking hot chocolates. We love yoga, meditation, healthy + delicious food, exercising and enjoying a glass of wine every now and then :)

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Spending time with kids is an amazing way to learn English! Our kids are really interested in different languages, other cultures and new music. Hanging out with them and practicing your English through play and the non judgement of kids, makes learning fun and easeful.
    You are also welcome to join our family life in any way that you like. You are always invited and we also totally respect you living your own life and doing your own thing. We are grateful for your help and here to support you.
