Description
Hi, my future host! 😊

I'm Lili, a Hungarian student who loves discovering new places, meeting people from different cultures, and learning new skills. I love connecting with people! I play the guitar and ukulele and love singing along, so it would be fun to make music together!

What motivates me the most is the opportunity to connect with others, share experiences, and contribute in a meaningful way.

I find happiness in simple things—spending time in nature, having deep conversations, and working on creative or hands-on projects. I surf whenever I can, but since Hungary doesn’t have waves, I practice surfskating at a great level to improve my surf skills. As I mentioned before, I also love making music. I adore animals—I have a dog back home!

I’m very spontaneous and always (I mean always!) open to learning something new. One of my biggest strengths is my smile—I smile a lot and absolutely love laughing! 😊

I speak English fluently, so communication won’t be a problem. I’m currently studying Spanish and can understand at a B1 level, but I’m not very confident in speaking yet—though I really want to improve!

I'm looking forward to new adventures, making great memories, and being part of a wonderful Workaway community!

See you soon! 🌍✨

Left by Workawayer () for host (Join our family and practise ...)

I spent one month with Marc, Gemma (the parents), and with Ginna, Beth, and Estel. I was thinking a lot about how I could write my feedback down, but I don’t think there is a nice way to do it. I talked with them on FaceTime once before I went there, but it was way too short to see anything. (And I had never tried this platform before and I didn’t… read more have any experience.)

They told me they can speak English and Spanish, which is true with the basics. They are a Catalan family. They speak Catalan every day with each other. I told them I wanted to learn Spanish, that’s why I traveled there. In the whole month, they taught me 2 or 3 words in Spanish. (I can say I didn’t improve a lot.)

We talked about my job, which would be speaking with the girls in English and teaching them, but the problem was they didn’t speak English at all. So, the question is: how do you teach little girls English without them knowing anything?

I know the basics of Spanish, but it was clearly not enough. I couldn’t talk with anybody for one month, literally, because of the language barrier. The village is basically a ghost town beside the summer, when there are a lot of tourists. I was very lonely.

The first two weeks were an experience. I went on the first weekend to a little village with them and there was really a good vibe. I couldn’t really speak with anybody, except one or two people who knew English. But then (naturally) I got tired and more tired. The bed for me was way too soft, my back always hurt, so I ended up sleeping on a Pilates mattress with a blanket. They didn’t give me anything to cool me down at night, but they had (the girls and the parents) each something to cool the air down.

The second two weeks for me were survival mode. It happened several times that they went to eat out, but they didn’t tell me, so I had to buy my own food, which would not have been a problem at all if they paid me for my work. But they didn’t. So they really should have paid for my meal. The last weekend, they left me in another town with an empty fridge.

Before I came there, we talked about how Marc (the dad) would pick me up at the airport and then drive me back when I leave. He did come for me when I arrived, but in the last week, he told me he couldn’t bring me to the airport because of his work, because he didn’t really know if his boss would "give him any surprise," so I should book a bus ticket. Which wouldn’t have been a problem at all if they had paid for that. But they didn’t. I had to wait 7 (I repeat, 7) hours at the airport because the bus schedule didn’t match with my airplane departure. (I can say it was long.) They didn’t even wake up when I left; Marc wrote me the night before to leave the keys on the table and not to forget any personal items there.

This was way too comfortable for them because they didn’t have to pay for a babysitter, who would have been really expensive. So if I can give you one piece of advice: don’t babysit for free for three children. If you want to visit Palamós for a week, then that’s a good opportunity.
