She is bilingual (Polish and Italian) and keen on languages;) She is also learning to play guitar.
We are looking for a girl who, just like Sara, likes the seaside, watching films, going for a walk, talking, listening to music, cooking, having fun... and can also teach her FRENCH and/or SPANISH doing these things together .
We provide food, accomodation and if you want to do some household chores- pocket money as well.
Noto, where we live, has 23 thous. inhabitants and it is a World Heritage Unesco Site. There is a beautiful historical centre which is one of the most famous examples of the late baroque sicilian architecture. The nearest seaside with a sandy beach is just 10/15 minutes away.
The Val di Noto region is full of all sorts of places to visit: archeological sites (Greek and Roman ruins), artistic monuments, beautiful landscapes and natural reserves.
Our 130 mq flat is not far away from the historical centre (some minutes on foot).
