Description
My family is made up of me Mimma 52 years old, my husband Sergio 58 years old and my son Alessandro 16 years old as well as our dog Dart 9 years old, who is a medium-sized honey-colored mestizo. We live in Palermo not far from the historic center and the fantastic beach of Mondello. Both my husband and I work at a telecommunications company, Our working hours are from 8.30 to 17. My son is a student and needs to practice speaking english. We are not smokers. I would like you to help me around the house, ironing laundry and vacuuming and if necessary, to take the dog for a walk taking care to hold him tightly in case he collides with some other dog.
