  Description

  Hi! I'm Lia, a voice actor and the owner of a small English library-school in Suncheon, a green and peaceful city in the south of Korea. I live with my 5-year-old son and our dogs. We love books, nature, cooking together, and slow, gentle days.
  
  We're looking for a Workawayer — traveling solo or with her child — who would like to stay with us and help my son and me grow more comfortable speaking English in everyday life.
  
  If you're interested: helping out at our small English library-school (optional)
  
  We're a warm, relaxed family, and we'd love to share our home with someone kind and curious. We'd love to hear from you!

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Staying with us means living like a local Korean family, not a tourist.
  
  Korean home life & food
  Cooking and eating Korean home meals together, like kimchi stew, rice dishes, and seasonal side dishes
  
  Visiting local markets and trying regional food from Jeolla province, known as the food capital of Korea
  
  Learning simple Korean phrases in everyday life (and laughing at our mistakes together!).
  
  Nature & the slow life
  Walks in Suncheon Bay Wetland, famous for its reed fields and migratory birds
  Exploring the national garden, nearby mountains, temples, and the southern coast
  
  Quiet, slow days outdoors with children and dogs
  Voice, stories & books
  
  I'm a voice actor, so we can read stories aloud, play with voices, or even try a little recording for fun
  
  Our small English library-school is full of picture books, and you're welcome to join storytime
  
  Sharing your culture too
  We'd love to learn from you as well: your favorite recipes, songs, games, or stories from home. My son would be thrilled to learn about the world through you.

  Aide

  We're looking for a warm, friendly female traveler (solo or with her child) to help my 5-year-old son and me use English naturally in our daily life.
  
  With my son:
  Reading picture books together in English
  Playing, drawing, and doing simple crafts while chatting in English
  Joining outdoor play, nature walks, and little adventures
  
  With me:
  Relaxed English conversation over meals, tea, and walks
  Helping me practice natural, everyday expressions I can use when teaching children
  
  Optional (only if you enjoy it):
  Helping at my small English library-school with storytime or activities
  
  Cooking together and sharing recipes from your culture
  
  No teaching experience is needed. What matters most is that you're kind, patient, and enjoy being with children.
  We'd ask for about 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, and the rest of your time is free to explore Suncheon and the south coast.

  Cet hôte propose un échange linguistique
  Yes! Language exchange is at the heart of our home. English for us My son and I are the ones who most want to improve. He's 5 and learns best through play, books, and songs, so simply talking and playing with him in English helps a lot. For me, natural daily conversation is the biggest gift: how people really say things, not textbook English. Korean for you In return, I'm happy to teach you Korean, from Hangul (the Korean alphabet, which you can learn to read in a few days!) to useful phrases for traveling, shopping, and ordering food. As a voice actor, I can also help with natural pronunciation and intonation. How it works No formal lessons or pressure. We learn together in everyday moments: at the dinner table, on walks, while cooking, and during storytime. Mistakes are welcome on both sides! If you're traveling with your child, our children can learn each other's languages through play, which is often the fastest way of all.
