    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We both participate in a Brazilian percussion group (batucada) based on the island and play a lot during the summer. Anyone who comes to our house can come and see our shows and come and play with us when we're rehearsing.

    We really enjoy cooking and sharing recipes from all over the world. We can organize lunches and dinners and exchange recipes.

    Silvia is from Mallorca and speaks Catalan; it's a great opportunity to learn a new language.

    Pepe is from Italy and speaks Italian.

    Berta is of mixed heritage, but we'd like her to speak Italian. We're looking for someone to speak to her in Italian.

    Nos gusta mucho la naturaleza y la vida cultural de Formentera. Quien vendrá a casa tendrá la oportunidad de vivir la Formentera real, no solo la parte turistica,
    Los dos participamos en un grupo de percusión brasileña (batucada) afincada en la isla y tocamos mucho durante el verano. Quien vendrá a casa potrá venire a vedere i nostri spettacoli e venire a suonare con noi quando facciamo le prove.
    Nos gusta mucho cocinar y compartir recetas de todo el mundo. Podemos organizar comida y cena e intercambiar recetas.
    Silvia es de Mallorca, y habla catalan, es una buena oportunidad para aprender una nueva lengua.
    Pepe es de Italia, y hablo italiano
    Berta es una mezcla pero nos gustaría que hablara italiano. Estamos buscando alguien que le hable en italiano.
