    *Please contact this host in Spanish*
    Hello. We are a family consisting of two adults (Juan and Lourdes) and three lovely girls aged 7, 9, and 11. We live in a house with a vegetable garden in a village called Axeitos in Ribeira (A Coruña), a beautiful area in Galicia (Spain). We have a loving dog who is always in the garden and a vegetable garden where we spend a lot of free time. We are close to the mountains and, less than 4 km away, is the Corrubedo Dunes Natural Park, with spectacular beaches, ideal for surfers. 7 km away is the center of Ribeira; it is a small coastal town with all the necessary services (shops, doctors, etc.). We like to do things as a family and would like a woman to come to our house so we can teach her about the culture of Galician villages (food, customs, music, etc.).

    Tenemos un cariñoso perro que está siempre en el jardín y una huerta donde pasamos bastantes ratos libres.
    Tenemos cerca la montaña y, a menos de 4 km está el Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corrubedo con unas espectaculares playas, ideales para los amantes del surf.
    A 7 km está el centro de Ribeira, es una pequeña ciudad costera con todos los servicios necesarios (tiendas, médicos,...).
