    Description

    Hi! We are a Basque family of four …plus one; mum, dad, two teenagers (20 and 17 years old) and Mendi, our dog. My husband and I are both teachers (economics and maths). We all like sports and hanging out with our friends. We also like travelling. We would like to improve our english with you!

    We live in Arrigorriaga which is a medium size village near Bilbao. Arrigorriaga is very well conected to Bilbao and you can go by train in 13 minutes. Our town is surrounded by mountains and you can have nice walks around here. We are also very close to the sea, and there are very good places to go surfing around here. In fact we sometimes go to spend the weekend to Mundaka which is a little wonderfull village in the coast of Bizkaia with a famous left wave. You will be welcomed to come with us!
