    Description

    Our home is a multigenerational household consisting of myself, my husband, our 3 kids, my mom, and my dad. We also have an au pair who is from Colombia who helps me care for our 3 young kids. We have 5 dogs and 15 chickens and a small garden. It’s my first year with a garden and chickens and would love any advice.
    We have a great yard with a pool that can be used by our guests. I also cook amazing food and would love to trade recipes.

    This would be our first experience with someone coming to help us. there are bus services to get from our town to the bigger cities. Once you get into a town more there are also trains. Our neighborhood is quiet so after the sun goes down we like to respect our neighbors and keep it quiet.
