Description
Hi, I'm Luisa, I'm 55 years old, I have two sons and I live alone in a town near Turin. I am a literature and history teacher, I love animals and travel. I am currently studying English and would like to receive guests to increase my study of English. My house is located near a forest park, 40 km from Turin and 14 from Alba, a town in the Langhe. It is an ideal starting point for both cultural and naturalistic excursions. Then, I am available to help guests interested in learning the Italian language.

The town where I live is halfway between Turin and the Langhe. Therefore museum and naturalistic culture. I would recommend coming here to anyone interested in learning more about Italian culture through help in learning the language, as I am an Italian teacher. It is a pleasant place, surrounded by woods, quiet, but with the possibility of reaching the city of Turin in 40 minutes by bus. There are no trendy clubs, the town has only 2500 inhabitants, so not recommended for those looking for a more frenetic place.
Help
I would like to have the opportunity to improve my oral English by making conversation. I have a garden that needs maintenance and I would appreciate some help. I like cooking and I am available to teach Italian cuisine recipes, except meat ones because I am vegetarian.

I make the upper floor of my house available, where there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The use of the kitchen downstairs will be shared with me. I don't have a television, but an internet connection.
What else ...
For free time there is the possibility of reaching Turin, Milan and Alba by bus. I am available to accompany you by car on explorations of the Langhe or in the mountains, when I am not working. Furthermore, for those who love trekking, there is a well-developed trail network that starts right under my house.

Luisa, thank you for everything.
Best wishes, 🍀
She is good with children and animals because she is also very empathetic and always has a good word at the right time. Deniz is also a formidable chess player. I'm grateful I meet her.
