  Description

  Authentic Macedonian cultural experience in a beautiful village house. ISO someone with curiosity and engagement to visit us and share experience. Especially interested in a person who can provide vacation help with our 7.5 year old girl while she is out of school. Our 14 year old computer scientist is also keen for adventures.
  
  Our family of four speaks three languages: English, French, and Macedonian. We have lived in Macedonia for 17 years but mom and dad originate from the U.S. and France. So, we know all the little corners of the country to visit. One of us is vegan and the rest of us eat mainly vegetarian meals. We have one car.
  
  Our lagotto romagnolo is called Lucy.
  
  We are committed to living sustainably (even with an OUTDOOR POOL). We're learning survival gardening as a team. and are currently growing vegetables from seed. We love music and dance and movement and yoga. We attend the philharmonic roughly once per month.

  You will have a private space of your own with a twin sized bed. You will have access to a washer for your clothes. There are 2 bathrooms in our home, so we will share these as needed. We eat twice daily together: at noon and between 1700-1800. When it is cold, we sit around an indoor table. In summer, we eat outside as much as possible.
