    Description

    Hello! There are different ways to travel and one of them (when you don't have enough time) is to host travelers! I live in Megève with my 3 boys, who no longer need a babysitter because they are 16, 23 and 25 years old. I am looking for someone to help us improving our english. So I would like an English speaker or someone who speaks English very fluently and very important thing ; someone who can t speak french .
    As I have a full time job, this personn could help a little with different tasks, mainly cooking (lunch and dinner 5 days a week) and a little bit of cleaning. This will allow me to be more available to discuss and share when I get home from work. In september/october I need someone who can help me pick up potatoes .
    I'm fond of climbing, swimming, gardenning, biking, museum ... These are activities that we can share
    If you like winter sports and are sporty or nature lovers, you will be served in Megève. : sports activities: skiing from the end of december until the end of march; the rest of the year: climbing, swimming, gym, ice rink, mountain walking, mountain biking, ... Not far from Chamonix, Annecy and Geneva come and discover a region full of history and magnificent landscapes!

    Bonjour! Il existe différentes façons de voyager et l’une d’entre elles (quand on n’a pas assez de temps) est d’héberger des voyageurs ! J'habite à Megève avec mes 3 garçons, qui n'ont plus besoin de baby-sitter car ils ont 16, 23 et 25 ans. Je recherche quelqu'un pour nous aider à améliorer notre anglais (de préférence avec un anglophone ou quelqu'un qui parle couramment anglais). Comme j'ai un travail à temps plein, cette personne pourrait m'aider un peu avec différentes tâches, principalement la cuisine et peut-être un peu de ménage. Cela me permettrai d'être plus disponible pour échanger et partager quand je rentre du travail.
    J'aime l'escalade, la natation, le jardinage, le vélo, les musées... Ce sont des activités que nous pouvons partager
    Si vous aimez les sports d'hiver et la nature, vous serez servis à Megève. : activités sportives : ski jusqu'à mi-avril ; le reste de l'année : escalade, natation, salle de sport, patinoire, randonnées en montagne, VTT,... Non loin de Chamonix, Annecy et Genève venez découvrir une région chargée d'histoire et de magnifiques paysages !
