    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.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    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.

    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.
