Description
We are a small family: I, my husband, our 2 dauthers (3,5 and 7 years old) and 2 parakeets. I´am a researcher and my husband an engineer. We both work (I work part-time), so we need some help with childs but most expectations are for the experience to host a person from another country. We are interested in intercultural exchange, friendship, and linguistic contamination. We´d like to learn English and to teach Italian if you desire.
We live in Trentino in the nord east of Italy, in Calceranica, a touristic village along the riversides of a beautiful lake. Calceranica is 15 minutes far from Trento, the main city of the region, 1 h from Verona, 2.5 h from Venezia, 1 h from Bassano, 4 h from Milano,1 h from Bolzano,... Our village is well connected with the public transport (bus and train).
If you love nature here you can join wonderful mountains, lakes (Caldonazzo Lake, Levico Lake,... ), special place as "Arte sella". We love doing experience in the nature: swimming, cycling, going by boat and kayak, walking, ...
We love cooking, we prepare lots of hand made disches, and we eat gluten free.
We love spending our free time with friends and you will be part of our large family!
