Description
we are a married couple (37 and 40 years old) with five children. we have one cat, Bella. The children are in the age range between 2 and 17 years old. We live in Akranes, Iceland and here we have the beach called langisandur, a popular lighthouse and a hot tub at the beach called Guðlaug (you can find it on facebook)
We need help with all kinds of stuff and are happy to provide more info in messages. we are flexible and try our best to make our workawayers feel welcome. Sylvía is working in a preschool but is also in full time university studying to be a preschool teacher and Stefán works shifts in an aluminium factory.
