    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a bilingual family French/Italian and we have lived in different countries. We like to share experiences and foreign languages. I am an English teacher and we can teach both Italian and French to our workawayer. We like travelling and learning from new cultures. There is a lot to do in the area either if you want to visit museums, cities and culture or if you want to spend time in nature. I am also interested in Qi Gong and yoga and if interested we could share some practices.
