    Description

    We are a family made up of the mother, Luz, the father named Víctor, our child 3-year-old baby Bosco, and 10-month-old Otto, and 3 dogs named Lola and Kuka y Kona.
    We live in an urbanization in the countryside, in a town in the province of Castellón, we are surrounded by mountains, but at the same time we are very well connected, with the highway next to us. We are 20 minutes by car from Castellón and 1 hour from Valencia.
    We live in front of a natural park, where you can enjoy nature, by bike, trekking, or running, whatever you like!
    We also have the sea very close, so you can enjoy a day at the beach any day of the week.

    Somos una familia compuesta por la madre, Luz, el padre que se llama Víctor, nuestro hijo de 3 años Bosco, nuestro bebé de 10 meses y 2 perras llamadas Lola, Kuka y Kona.
    Vivimos en una urbanización en el campo, en un pueblo de la provincia de Castellón, estamos rodeados de montañas, pero a la vez estamos muy bien comunicados, con la autovía al lado. Estamos a 20 minutos en coche de Castellón y 1 hora de Valencia.
    Vivimos enfrente de un parque natural, donde se puede disfrutar de la naturaleza, en bici, haciendo trekking, o corriendo, lo que más te guste!
    También tenemos el mar muy cerca, así que se puede disfrutar de un día de playa cualquier día de la semana.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    In exchange, we offer accommodation and food, and the possibility of traveling with us when we have a competition and discovering different places in Spain. We speak Spanish and Valencian, so you have the opportunity to learn or improve the language. We also travel a lot to the province of Alicante on weekends, so I could get to know the whole area.

    A cambio ofrecemos estancia y comida, y la posibilidad de viajar con nosotros cuando tengamos competición y conocer lugares distintos de España. Nosotros hablamos español y valenciano, así que tienes la posibilidad de aprender o mejorar el idioma. También viajamos mucho a la provincia de Alicante los fines de semana, así que podría conocer toda esa zona.

    Help

    We would like help to care for Bosco and Otto, starting in September, while Luz is working from home. We would need help from 17:15 a.m. to 19:15 p.m. and while dinner is being prepared to take care of Bosco and Otto, and while he sleeps, to do some housework. The morning would be free, and the weekends would also be free, which you can take advantage of to travel or to come with us to practice orienteering, a sport that we have as a hobby, and we travel all over Spain to race.

    Nos gustaría recibir ayuda para cuidar a Bosco y Otto, a partir de septiembre, mientras Luz esté trabajando desde casa. Necesitaríamos la ayuda de 17:15h a 19:15h de cuidado de Bosco y Otto y mientras preparo la cena. Las mañanas serían libres, y los fines de semana también libres, que los puedes aprovechar para viajar o para venir con nosotros a practicar orientación, un deporte que tenemos como afición, y viajamos por toda España para competir.
