Description
Hello everybody!
We are Mercè, Abril and Nil.
I work as an administrative in the economic services department of a town hall.
We are a nice family and there is always a very good atmosphere at home.
I am looking for an English native person for English practice during the summer months (July and some part of August).
I want our family to learn English in a funny and natural way. We are very cheerful, friendly and affectionate.
I have 5 years of experience hosting workawayers. We discovered this web and this philosophy that amazed our family, and we all have had a great time together. For that reason, a close family of good friends are experiencing this fantastic experience as hosts, too. Here's their profile . We live in the same town, and because we're neighbours with a great relationship, we can offer joint plans. Therefore, we welcome friends (one in each house).
We consider ourselves to be a dynamic and funny family in which you will never get bored.
I offer you a life experience where you can meet new people, possibly learn a new language (if you want) and discover a new way of life.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will experience the Catalan & Spanish cultures and you will discover a new area. Our village is located near Tarragona, that has an amazing World Heritage in Roman Culture and it's surrounded by the sea and beautiful landscapes.
We like Mediterranean cuisine and eat healthy. In our house you can share and live with us the traditions and customs of our land.
Help
We host workawayers mainly during July and August.
Your experience with us will consist in English practice, always speaking ONLY in English. I also expect a cheerful active person, with initiative.
I am looking for a girl or boy whose mother tongue is English as we want to become completely bi-lingual in the future.
I would love it if you ate with us and spent time with us as we want you to become and feel comfortable with us, but, of course this isn't compulsory! Please, feel free to do what you want!

What else ...
La Pobla de Mafumet, our village, is very close to the wonderful city of Tarragona, the Costa Daurada and the Delta de l'Ebre. In our area there are many beautiful places you can visit (we will love to show them to you, or we can help you plan your trips and visits, too).
La Pobla de Mafumet it's a little village of 4.000 inhabitants with a lot of services... (bars and cafe's, post office, school, supermarkets, hospital, library, gym, swimming pool, parks...) and you can go everywhere by foot!
If you want to visit Barcelona, it is only an hour away from Tarragona by train or bus.
The Reus Airport is less than 15 minutes away, too.
