Description
We are a Polish family with 3 kids (9, 11 and 13 years old) and a little but loud dog. We live in Krakow, Poland. We travel a lot and raise our kids to be citizens of the world - they understand English, German and obviously Polish. Our kids were homeschooled for some time, now they attend a reglar school. We are looking for helpers to help us with cooking, cleaning, taking care of kids, like playing with them, teaching anything you know starting from arts, sports through language ,maths or science. I believe in enriching interactions and I am sure you also have something worth sharing!
Please, note, that we have a dog. It usually barks a lot on the first and second day, after a few days you will be the best friends :)

Help
Do you want to stay in Krakow, Poland, explore the city and learn how a untraditional Polish family lives? I invite you to stay with us while helping out with our kids or house chores.
We have 3 kids, who understand English, German and speak Polish. They are very energetic and open, easy to entertain but loads of work :)
We need helpers who will stay with us for about 2-3 weeks and help out with some house tasks and teach kids anything you know, ranging from arts and sports to maths, language or science. Sometimes we need help with other tasks, just write us :)
We offer a separate room in our house plus food (just grab anything we have in our fridge or storage, or go shopping, we give you money). We also offer our company, if you're willing to talk to us :)
MAIN TASKS Monday-Friday, 4h/day max:
- cook one meal a day for all of us (1h)
- do some cleaning work (1h - pick up what is needed, contribute!)
- teach kids something you know (1-2 hours)
Weekends are free, unless both parties agree otherwise.

A little more information
Internet access
Limited internet access
We have pets
We are smokers
Can host families
Can host digital nomads
We both work remotly. We are surely willing to host digital nomads.
Space for parking camper vans
if you travel in a van, you could park in front of our house and use our facilities.
Can possibly accept pets
We have a small and nervous dog, which is afraid of big dogs, so I don't think we can host you if you have a big dog. Small dogs are ok. I have no idea about the cats, we can try it :)

The bus takes only 20 minutes to the city center and the working hours were really flexible so I had a lot of time… read more
I would happily do another work away with them if the opportunity came up :)
