    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We will help you to improve your spanish with fluid conversations. Correcting carefully and patiently your mistakes in grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation.

    You will eat typical good and healthy spanish food. If you want, we will teach you how to prepare it.

    You will live in the centre of a nice typical Spanish town, small but alive town (museums, library, shops, restaurants, banks, sports centre, park, health centre, schools, etc…) There are also very cheap spanish lessons (5€/year) once a week (not during the summer) in the town, which can be a great opportunity to improve your spanish.

    The surrounding area is mountainous with lakes and rivers nearby and there are many outdoor sports which are popular; mountain biking, hiking, climbing, canyoning, kayaking.

    We use to travel many weekends to other places (for visiting family, skiing during winter or simply sightseeing). If you want, you will be able to join us to you travel experience.

    THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR ME IS THAT YOU PLAY AND INTERACT WITH MY CHILDREN AND TALK (FRENCH OR ENGLISH) TO THEM. PLEASE, LEAVE YOUR MOBILE PHONE WHILE YOU ARE WITH MY SONS.

    I need people who want to be motivated and active. We really would like to share with the volunteers we have at home and I also expect them to collaborate with me.

    You'll be a member of the family, and we would prefer someone who is interested in discovering how we live, new things, the culture, rather than someone passing all his free time in his bedroom or in internet. Although you can take some private time for yourself of course!

    We will be happy to welcome you and make you feel as a member of our family.

    I am mainly looking for help with the general life in the house, playing, caring for and spending time with the children and helping me to keep the house tidy and clean.

    We will help you to improve your spanish, of course! but we want to improve our english aswell. Please, talk to the kids in english. Interact with the children in english and help them learn and improve.

    Normally, with exceptions, you will only have to work for 5 hours throughout the day, from Monday to Friday. The rest of the day and the weekend will be free for you. If I need you to work for longer one day, I will make sure you´re able to work less on a different day.

    I would like you to really understand that even though you are going to a family house, I´m are very busy looking after my 3 children, and I want to include you in the family as another adult, so I would expect you to be able to take care of yourself. We will of course include you in all our family meals and activites, I´m looking for another adult to share some of my work.

    I´m not expecting you to clean the house, but please keep your own room tidy and ventilated. However if you´d like to cook you´ll be very welcome to show us some food from your home.

    You´ll sleep in my little boy's room. He´ll go to sleep with his brothers at their room. He´ll share his room with you and will respect your space and free time, but he´ll still using it during your stay (for playing during the afternoon, for example).

    You'll have to share the bathroom with us (we have two complete bathrooms).

    You will eat with us as a member of the family.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We dont have internet connection in the house.

    VERY IMPORTANT: Our three sons are very sociable. We want you to take care of them and play with them practising other languages. So please, turn off the TV and use your mobile phone or tablet only in your free time.

    There is a daily bus (only one a day) that conect Ainsa with the main cities (Barbastro, Zaragoza, Huesca, Barcelona…)

    Despite being rural, there is a wide variety of social and cultural life, and you are welcome to come along when we go to social events or to see friends.

    We live in a very beautiful environment, we are not in the high mountains, it is rather pre-Pyrenees. The climate here is very good, in winter although it is cold there are many sunny days. Hot summers during the day.

    We like to have a quiet life, spend time with family and do sports and outdoor activities.

    I don´t smoke and only drink occasionally during meals, so I am looking for workawayers who don´t smoke and who are happy to not drink for the time when they are staying with us in Ainsa.
