Description
Hello dear workawayers!
We are a little family living in Laax, a nice village and a well-known ski resort in the Swiss Alps.
We're looking for a warm-hearted person giving us hands to help for everyday tasks and bring in their skills and interests to embellish our live.
We, this is me, Linda (41), and my beloved kids Mattiu (7) and Annie (almost 6). I'm a geographer and i've an interesting job in a company, where i work mainly in home-office. I love mountains and my passion is snowboarding. Mattiu likes being creative in handicraft and Lego and Annie is a sporty bundle of energy. We're all outdoor enthusiasts and love being active in our beautiful surrounding nature.
We live in a two families house with a small vegetable garden. A beautiful natural landscape surrounds our home.
Laax offers many possibilities for activities (skiing, biking, hiking, swimming in beautiful lakes, ...) and there are stunning places to visit just nearby. You'll get plenty of ideas by visiting the Laax homepage.Types of help and learning opportunities

I enjoyed a lot travelling around the world in younger years. I always loved to have an insight in peoples everyday lives. I still like cultural exchanges a lot and i feel like hosting workaway people is a great opportunity for it.
Our family loves being outdoors and in the mountain nature. As we live in a ski resort with lots of possibilities we do of course take advantage of it and go skiing, biking, hiking, ... you're welcome to join us on our adventures if you want to.Projects involving children

Help
We need help with our daily household tasks like cleaning, cooking, dishes (no dishwasher ), laundry, .. That's already quite some work that has to be done. Besides, there's enough tasks waiting to be done. You're welcome to bring in on your skills and interests to help us embellish and improve our live. This can involve some small renovation projects in and around the house, gardening, supervising/creative play with the kids, reparation tasks, deep cleaning projects, snow shoveling, ... Childcare would not be your main task, as i'm around when the kids are and i love spending time with them. Note that some days the kids are with the grandmother or their father and i may also not be at home, so you'll be on your own.

You'll be sleeping in the new wooden house (40m2) just a few steps aside our apartment. you have your own bathroom and shower in there and direct access to the terrasse. The view to the mountains directly from your room is gorgeous. The wooden house is also used as my office sometimes during the day but i'll respect your privacy and will take my laptop somewhere else to work if it's not appropriate for you.
The photos from inside show your room, not our family living space, which is older and more chaotic.A little more information
