Description
Hello, my name is Patricia, I am 45 years old and I am a nurse. My partner David, 50 years old, who is a boat skipper, and Mara and Vega, our 6 and 8 year old daughters, live with us. We live in a house in a small town in Lanzarote by the sea, Playa Honda. We have a spacious house with a garden and nearby services that can be accessed by walking. We have lived in different parts of the world, I have worked with several NGOs in Africa and America and we have done workaway in France and New Zealand. We are a happy and playful family, we like a simple life, with time for family and friends, nature and music. Share moments and at the same time have moments of independence. In our house, as part of the educational project with our daughters, we try to have a healthy diet, respect the environment with a life that is as ecological and sustainable as possible, and use little technology, especially with the little ones.

In short, a cheerful person, with vitality, playful, with initiative, creative, who loves children and speaks English.
