  Description

  *we are currently not looking as have a workaway staying with us*
  
  
  We are a family of 4, our 2 children are both girls and aged 11 and 3. Alonside our kids we also have 2 pets, a cat and a dog called Magic and Elvis (I am a big Elvis fan).
  We moved out of London a few years ago and relocated to a small village South of Bath called Monkton Combe and bought a big house that needed a whole renovation which took us about a year to do and is pretty much done - it is taking a bit of time to finish some final areas though which just need sorting. My husband goes up to London every week for work and I look after the kids and pets when he is away.
  
  The house we live in has a lovely Garden and is nustled away in an area of outstanding beauty where there are beautiful walks and wild swimming spots. It is very close to Bath and takes only 10 minutes to get into the town centre so it doesn't feel so cut off.
  
  We run and managed creative studios in Frome which is a small but very vibrant market town about 20 minutes away. I predominantly run this site and my husband runs the other site in London which is significantly bigger. We are both active people and like to make most out of life, learning and growing. I came from a creative family and like to create, whether it is making a lovely environment to live or sewing/ art projects. I am always working on something!
  
  There is always so much to do and we are looking for someone to share our space with and help with things around the house and with the kids/ pets.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We live in a part of English countryside which benefits from beautiful views and walks, wild swimming and an abundance in flora and fauna - there are a lot of nature trails and outdioor learning in our local village which is on offer. We are a typical English family. We feel like we can offer our host a lot of knowledge and skills, from learning about management or even some arty skills like sewings. As we are surrounded by nature and have a big garden, this position would be ideal for someone who is creative and likes nature/ gardens. I am hopefully starting a course on hortuculture late in the year which I would be happy to pass on my learning,
  We are looking for someone to be part of the family, to live and integrate, to eat meals with and even relax and watch TV :)
