  Before that we want to improve our english and exchange with other workawayers about their experiences.
  So we decide to host native english or fluent speaker to improve our english, teach some basics to our child, and have good exchange.
  
  We don't have a lot of tasks to do, but we want you can discover our country and spend good time with us.
  We want a person who like spend time with children because our first request is to play and discuss with our daugthers and teach them some basics in english.
