Description
Hi there!
We are Francisco and Agostina, an Argentine couple living in Kumbor, a quiet and charming village just a few minutes from Herceg Novi, on the stunning Bay of Kotor. We share our home with our little daughter Felicitas (2 years old) and our Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Lafinur, and we'd love to welcome you into our little Adriatic life.
Our apartment sits just 50 meters from the sea, with two balconies facing the water — the kind of place where you have your morning coffee listening to the waves. Kumbor is peaceful and local, away from the tourist crowds, but everything is within easy reach.
What we believe in:
We are firm believers in the magic of cultural exchange. We've been workawayers ourselves, and we know firsthand how a few weeks in someone's home can change the way you see the world. We want to offer you exactly that — not just a place to stay, but a genuine connection. We speak Spanish, English and Italian and love exchanging languages naturally, through conversation, cooking, and everyday life. If you speak something else entirely, even better — we'd love to learn a few words from you too.
We love nature deeply. Weekend hikes, swimming in hidden coves, border crossings to Croatia or Bosnia, road trips to medieval villages along the bay — these are just regular weekends for us. You are always warmly invited to join, and we love sharing those moments with the right people. You'll never be obligated, but the invitation is always open.
What we're looking for:
Honestly, what we're looking for is someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with a little one. Our daughter Felicitas loves to play, explore and discover the world around her, and we'd love someone to be part of that — playing together at home, heading to the playground, or strolling along the beach when you feel comfortable with each other. Some days it will be the full 5 hours, other days much less. We want this to feel natural and relaxed, not like a formal arrangement. We dont ask you to clean as part of your workawayer time but a little help could really help us! We are not the most organized and sometimes with the work and Felicitas playing it gets messy so picking up toys in order to protect us from accidental falls is always a family task you are welcome to help with haha!
We ask for availability Monday to Friday, roughly from 2pm to 7pm. All mornings are yours, and weekends are completely free.
What we offer:
A private room and your own private bathroom with shower
All meals included — sometimes we cook, sometimes you cook if you want, and we genuinely treasure recipes from your home country on our table
Our kitchen and fridge are always open, no rules, just good food and good company
Two sea-view balconies and the sound of the Adriatic at night
A family that will treat you like one of their own
Cultural and language exchange as a natural part of everyday life
The chance to explore one of Europe's most underrated corners — and share new experiences together
Come experience the Balkans through the eyes of a family that chose it on purpose, and leave with stories, friendships, and maybe a few words of Spanish. 🌊🏔️

What you'll take home:
More than just a stamp in your passport. Living with a family — sharing meals, conversations, spontaneous road trips and quiet evenings on the balcony — gives you something a hostel never can. You'll pick up words in Spanish (or Italian, or both), share your own language with us in return, and experience the Balkans not as a tourist but as someone who actually belongs here for a while.
On weekends we explore — Herceg Novi, Kotor, Perast, Budva, hidden beaches along the bay, and often across the border into Croatia or Bosnia. . If for any reason we can't make a trip happen, we'll always point you in the right direction and help you get there.
Food is central to who we are. Francisco cooks traditional Argentine, Italian and Spanish meals regularly — expect proper asado, empanadas, and more — and we genuinely love when our guests bring their own recipes to the table. Our kitchen is yours.
We speak Spanish, English and Italian and love exchanging languages naturally through everyday life. Whatever you speak, whatever you know, whatever you're passionate about — yoga, crafts, music, your own culture — bring it. That exchange is exactly what makes this worth it for all of us.
Montenegro is one of Europe's best kept secrets, and you'll leave knowing corners of it that most travellers never find.

Honestly, what we're looking for is someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with a little one. Our daughter Felicitas just turned 2 and she is full of curiosity, energy and personality — we'd love someone to be part of that world with her. Playing together at home, heading to the playground, strolling along the beach when you feel comfortable with each other. Some days it will be the full 5 hours, other days much less.
We want this to feel natural and relaxed, not like a formal arrangement.
We also have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier who is gentle, loving, and always happy to join a beach walk.
If you have any knowledge or passion you'd like to share — yoga, meditation, a craft, your own language, cooking from your home country — we would genuinely love to learn from you. That kind of spontaneous exchange is exactly what we're here for.
We ask for availability Monday to Friday, roughly from 2pm to 7pm. All mornings are yours, and weekends are completely free.
