    We consider you as a family member. You will be a part of our family and we will have lots of cultural exchange!

    We can do many activities together. Personally, I have a strong passion in asian cuisine and we can exchange our culinary knowledge. And if you want, I can teach you some thai recipes such as red/ green curry, spring rolls, fried rice or stirred fried vegetables.

    Moreover, you can practice speaking French with my husband or Thai with me if you want.

    We would like you to help us with some housework such as cleaning the floor, washing dishes, cooking evening meals, and helping my girls to read and write English or teaching them to speak Chinese.

    We would like to have someone who is responsible, reliable, mature, patient, organized , clean, happy, kind, loving, friendly and also loves playing with children.
