Description
We are a typical catalan family. We have got two daughters who are 16 and 17 years old. They love doing sport, singing, travelling, learning...
My wife and I are physical education teachers in a primary school. We live in a small town called Santa Cristina d’Aro (25 minutes by car from Girona).
Our town has the beach at 6 km of distance (the well- known Costa Brava). The house is big and it has got different comforts such as a garden, a fireplace and a swimming pool.
We have a motorhome and we are used to travelling a lot so you will be welcome to join us on our trips!
All of us like walking and doing sport.

Besides that, we would like some help on our vegetable garden and with our chickens.
