Description
Hi!I’ m Silvia.
WE ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR SOMEONE FROM MAY 13TH TILL THE BEGINNING OF JULY AND THEN WE NEED SOMEONE FROM JULY 20TH ONWARDS. ONLY FLUENT ENGLISH SPEAKER
We are an italian family who consists of 4 people (Me, my partner Angelo and out 8years old little kid Giorgio and Claudio 4 year). We live in Pietrasanta, a beautiful place in Tuscany, a central region of Italy. Our house is 800 metres distant form the sea and 200 metres distant from a pine forest, it has big spaces and a garden where a turtle lives happily:))
It's the perfect place if you want enjoying sea, large beaches, nature and quiet. Pietrasanta is also famous for its culture and marble with lot of art galleries and cultural events during the year and particularly in Summer. We are close (15 minutes by car) to Viareggio that is famous in the world for its Carnival and we are close to Pisa (30 minutes by car) center and its airport, Florence (about 1 hour) and Liguria with its gorgeous 5Terre.
So, there are lot of reasons to come here and not least our beautiful family. Me and Angelo are 39 and 40 years old respectively and we are both psychiatrists who work in the hospital 5 minutes far from our place. We both are sunny, chatty and easygoing who like being around people, meeting new one and make new friends.
We love so much family and stay together, spend time talking and enjoying our free time (that is not so much:)). We are both open minded who appreciate a lot other cultures, other religions, other languages, other foods. We have travelled a lot during our residency in Psychiatry, living for some months in Vancouver and in New York but we travelled in Morocco, Spain, France, UK, Malesia, USA, Canada, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Russia, Israel and so on. In our free time we love being outdoors, trekking, camping and visit new places but also we love spending time with our friends, chatting and having dinner with them. Angelo loves DIY with Giorgio and I love gardening and flowers.
We love spending time with people who are curious, positive, smiling, funny and even a little crazy:)). We love talking and laughing a lot and even making fun of ourselves. For all these reasons we love hosting people, talk with them and share our cultures.
We would love our kids too grow up with lots of different people into the respect for other cultures, other religions, other languages.
If you are ready to smile a lot, have fun, being a kid and you are willing to get mucky with our kids, our family could fit with you and we look forward to host you:))
