Description
Hi there,
Thanks for visiting my profile, nice to meet you! I have a space from 10 SEPTEMBER TO 7 OCTOBER. (otherwise we will be lookng at January 2026 but it is too early to think that far ahead)
I’ll tell you a bit about us in a moment but first off in summary we’d love to hear from you if
-you are great with social media, editing reels, or Wordpress (Website editing), that would be amazing!
- you love cooking and are creative (and healthy) in your approach and happy to do housework
So if you think that is you please read on!
Here is some info about us :-)
We are a family of three/4! My daughter (21) and niece (15) live with me and my son (17) lives with me one day a week. My niece is an international student, from England. We are a "rainbow" family so LGBTQIA+ friendly.
I love martial arts, mountain biking /cycling and go to the gym. I also like to learn languages like Italian, French, Spanish and Latin. I often go to the movies and love trips to the theatre.
My daughter is a tech whizz, a talented online designer, and spends a lot of time in VR. She does karate with me. She loves the French films festival
My niece is doing well in school, she loves art and draws/paints really well. She rides an e-bike to school, does karate too and in summer loves sailing. She likes Japanese Anime movies.
My son is very outgoing, loves the gym, dancing, being outdoors and is nailing his final year school. He enjoys the Spanish films festival.
We all love to travel and enjoy hosting Workaways from around the world but ask that you have a good standard of English. We also welcome Aussie travellers and happily host and adapt to deaf/hearing impaired visitors too.
We'd love help with a range of things. Can you help with any of these?
* editing websites
*social media (editing reels and photo posts including from my travels) and doing some social media engagement
*writing blogs
* cooking, and general household and gardening tasks, (we like to eat healthy meals, I eat chicken/beef and am gluten free, my daughter and niece eat gluten but are vegetarian!)
We have ridiculously fast internet speeds (helps with the Virtual Reality!) so if you are a Digital Nomad/ travelling IT expert, you will love it!
Please note we prefer a minimum stay of two weeks, but love it if you can stay longer.
If you have any questions please ask :-)
Thanks
Fiona
Please ------ No smokers - -------thanks ----- seriously, no vapes nor recreational drugs - we are very family and healthy lifestyle focused!!!!
Sorry, but we only have rooms for SINGLE travellers, so can not host a couple i.e. no couples!

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
I have hosted Workaways for many years and some like to just do their own thing and others enjoy accompanying me on outings. My daughter and I are always keen to help you learn English if it isn't your native language, and to learn a little of your language and customs too. Let’s chat and you can let me know what you’d like to get out of your stay and I’ll see what we can do
Aide
Please contact me for details about the sort of work. It will depend on what skills you have. Essentially I am after people who can help me cook and keep house, or wordpress/social media/IT enthusiasts (with Good English) so if you can do one of those then that would be amazing! I use WhatsAp a lot so we can communicate via there once we have made our initial introductions.
