Description
Hello!
Welcome to join our family:
Valentin, my wife Franciella, our daughter Emilia and our son Leonardo.
We live in a house with garden in Villach, in southern Austria. Surrounded by mountains and only 30min to Italy.
We are looking for experienced, pro-active support with cleaning, dishwasher, washing machine, bathroom, windows, fridge, and/or DIY projects like painting walls, digging, organic gardening, etc
We like travelling, cultural exchange, gardening - getting to know new music, movies, exploring new places etc.
We have 1.5 full time jobs and a renovation in parallel. It would be better for us if you rest days somewhen Monday -Friday and we work together on Saturday and Sunday. During weekends we often work in and around the house and garden.
Our house is surrounded by a nice garden with trees and organic vegetables.
In the free time there is a lot to do. Villach is a touristic area known for its lakes, rivers and mountains. E.g. we could go to the lake for swimming, in winter for skating, We can borrow you a bicycle. We like going for a walk with the kids, in winter mostly sledging. We can drop you off in the city centre and pick you up from there. It would be great to learn about your culture and we can share insights into Austrian and Mexican culture.
Keeping the daily routine: During normal workdays we eat breakfast 06:55-7:20. Emi has to arrive at school 07:30-07:45. We want to start the day together and to help each other for breakfast. We would like your contribution with the daily necessities.
In winter mornings we need to clear the snow in front of the garage and the house.
In the evening we usually start the “go to bed routine for the kids” at 5:30pm: lower the blinds, switch on smaller lights, eat dinner, taking a shower, reading a book. Target: to switch of the last light around 8pm. Many times we are so tired that we fall asleep with them.
Garden: planting vegetables, trees, berries, flowers, transplant from pots to open soil, cutting trees, organic measures for better yield
In order to understand you and your interest in our place- I would like to get to know you. Be open about your expectations! Just take some time to explain why you are interested in staying with us. Believe me, there is no wrong reason and there is a match for every intention. Let us check how we both can get the most out of our shared time.
Please write 1 or more of our first names after the „Hi“, „Hey“, „Hello“ or „Hola“ to confirm you read our profile.
