  Description

  Hallo! We are a very active italian family and we need help with our 11 years old son who is home schooled at the moment.
  During the summer we have our work high season and we need help with Leo to bring him to the beach, teach him some subjects and bring him to different activities.
  He loves trail running, skateboarding, climbing and parkour. He would like to learn how to play the guitar.
  In the free time we do lots of activities and we live in front of the beach in Albenga, Liguria.
  We are in a touristic area where different outdoor sports are possible.
  Please let me know if interested, we are looking preferably for a boy, better if English, Spanish or French speaking in Europe already!
  Skaters superwelcome!!!!!!

  Accommodation

  We live in a small apartment but you can have your own room. I usually cook but you can fix and eat what you like.

  What else ...

  We live in Albenga, a charming place in Liguria. Very busy with tourists in the summer. Shops, bakeries, pizzeria, and train station at a walking distance to go seeing some places. We do not have a fixed schedule. Luca is a gardener and is away working most of the day and I, Margie, organize the activities. If I am not working , Leo can stay with me and the workawayer can be free or stay with us. If I am working (as a guide in some touristic caves, in a diving center and volunteer for a marine biology association) Leo goes to some summer camps or on the beach with the workawayer.
  Lunch is usually at home or at my mom's.
  In the afternoon depending on the day Leo goes trail running training or skateboarding in Nice in France.
  Evenings and weekends are free.
  Friendly and easy-going environment.
  We have been workawayer ourselves in an animal sanctuary and Leo is used to talk to different people in different languages.
  Any time we are with Leo you can stay with us or have some free time!
  We do not watch TV and Leo is not used to use devices, he is a homeschooler and he has been to forest school. We ask the workawayer not to stay on the phone when with Leo and give him some attention, he loves company!
  We need somebody who likes to stay with kids and enjoy playing.
  Please note that if you know you sleep in all the time, get tired easily and just want to have a vacation on the beach our family is NOT for you!
