    Description

    Hello, we are a family of 5: Jan, Lenka, Linda (11), Matej (7) and Thea (4). Jan is a programmer and Lenka is a teacher. The main reason for doing Workaway is cultural exchange. We are open-minded people and speak both well English. Lenka also speaks French, Spanish and Portuguese and the kids learn English and Linda learns Korean. The main reason for doing Workaway is cultural exchange.

    There is another family in the house and we are a kind of communitye: we help each other with babysitting etc. You would stay in the basement (with windows!), there is a guest room, a kitchen and bathroom… and a sauna :-)

    We have a garden where we grow vegetables and plan to have hens.

    Your work would consist of helping with the garden, manutention around the house, spending some time with the kids, maybe cooking sometimes. 3 hours of work per day, 5 days a week. The hours and days are flexible. We would usuaĺly share one meal per day, the rest of the time, you can be independent and cook for yourself.

    We live in a nice small town located next to Prague. The landscape is very nice : a river where you can swim, hills and forests where you can hike, and a cycling path where you can do in-line skating and cycling. Our town is very small but offers several nice cafés and restaurants. There is a very good, direct connection to Prague - 30 min by train. The train is in a walking distance (10 min).

    Looking forward to know you!
