Experience international family life in an Uruguayan beach town, La Barra, Maldonado

Infos

• 

  Description

  We are an international family with roots in Moldova and Germany. We have three small kids (4,6,8), living in a calm beach town in Uruguay. We are fluently mixing four languages throughout the day, so you will have the opportunity to learn Spanish with the kids while improving your German, Russian or English simultaneously. We have just started our organic vegetable garden and urban fruit forest project with a focus on native, edible and/or medicinal plants, and are in the progress of learning and moving towards a sustainable lifestyle. Anyone interested in sustainable living, gardening, multicultural living in Uruguay, entertainment with three-lingual kids or just helping around is welcome!

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are multi-lingual family and we can help you improve your Spanish, German, Russian or English. Our kids are just 2 and 4 but they can already teach you Spanish :) As we have just started our small garden project, you can learn and develop your skills together with us. Ralf can also teach you about open software and other computer skills, if you wish to.

  Hébergement

  We have a separate room in our house with a queen-sized bed under a thatched roof, space for meditation and yoga. Hot shower, running water, washing machine and internet access are available. We usually have all the meals together on the family table. Beach is 500m from the house, supermarkets, cafes and restaurants no more than two blocks away. You will hear the ocean at night if the wind direction is just right. In your free-time, you can have a swim in the ocean or the river or go surfing with the ocean waves. Punta del Este is a ten minute drive away, so are other small beach towns and the countryside. We share our garden with two cats, six chicken and a rooster.

  Autres infos...

  We are 500 meters from the beach where the Maldonado river meets the ocean. You can surf in the ocean or go swim in the river (we can arrange a surf board) or just meditate and chill on the beach. Outside of the January/February main season, it is usually pretty calm. Not far from us are several national parks and lagoons, where you might find flamingos and many other of the Uruguayan birds. And if city life attracts you, "famous" Punta del Este is just a short bus ride away.
