  Help

  The main reason I am joining the project is that I would like that my teenager twins (17 years old) would practice and learn English.
  My ideal workawayer should speak with my tweens daily , she should like dogs and help me take my golden retriever out for a walk once or twice a day , help me tidying up the kitchen after dinner and help me driving my kids either to a riding school or to the railway station when I can not.
  I would like to cook together and teach you how to cook Italian dishes!
