  Description

  Hello, we are Cristiana and Aldo, parents of 2 nice boy of 12 years old ane almost 8 yo.
  And we would like to welcome a workawayer who would be a joyful big brother or sister (yes, we'd rather welcome someone who is not afraid of doing lots of physical activities and sports ). We are looking for a positive and creative presence of someone who is comfortable in themselves and well balanced.
  
  We live in Paris southern suburbs called Verrières le Buisson, in an apartment for the moment , in a quiet street, just next to a forest (where it is possible to walk or to cycle), and next to a Steiner School (you might be aware of this pedagogy), where my kids are going. The forest is a nice place, when you want to jog, or to cycle, or just to breath nature, for a break.
  
  We are a family of 4, but we love to meet new people, and we have a very nice relationship with our neighbors, and other parents of the school, whom we Know for several years. We often have friends for dinner, or tea time.
  
  Paris and all its museums and its events is reachable by bus and train 45 Mn to Chatelet les Halles (I can lend a bike to reach easily the train station – or your can take a bus to Robinson and then the famous RER B). And Versailles is also reachable by train, same travel time. It is also possible to reach Paris by bike (14 km) on a green road only for bikes.
  
  I will do my best for you to have a fullfilling cultural experience.
  
  We have been welcoming, one girl who was a student in Paris - Theatre - time ago
  
  What you have to know about help and rules :
  
  -We will be working during the day (from home and also away for the day), so during the week I am not available at all , as I need to concentrate on my work, so I am looking for workawayers who are autonomous (people who don't mind spending a few hours a day on their own, with their own project, with their own freedom and...i cannot guarantee nice weather all the time, it means that it is nice to want to go and visit Paris, but it is also important that you have your own projets indoor – working on your french learning, your thesis, your pictures, creative projects, book, etc).
  
  •⁠ ⁠At the same time, I will include you in our friendship network, and I will try and do my best so that you can also meet our way of life and our activities.
  
  •⁠ ⁠We will have some regular moments of sharing, and I will do my best to help you feel home, debriefing and adjusting regularly so that all our little village does feel good.
  
  •⁠ ⁠It could be great if you have a drivers license for MANUAL cars (my car is not automatic), and of course that you are trained for manual cars. (It is so easy to forget when you don't practice).
  
  •⁠ ⁠I am willing to cook more and more fresh vegetables (raw and cooked) , (we eat meet and fish sometime) I will need some help for cooking in the evening, as I am lacking some inspiration. You will have to cook in the evening during week time (and like and want to cook with vegetables)
  
  NO MOBILE PHONE OR COMPUTER IN THE COMMON ROOMS, the kitchen or living room, It is so much nicer when we are all together, and I don't want to expose my kids to the screens, that is really important for me. LOW TECH IS REQUIRED.
  
  -Ricky is playing the basketball and Hari swims. Ricky does theatre classes too.
  •⁠ ⁠It is a great experience for us to meet new workawayers.
