  Description

  We are a family of 3 living in beautiful Durango, Colorado. We take trips to Italy every year and are motivated to learn the language and teach it to our 4 year old daughter, Emma. I (Tracy) used to guide bicycle tours in Piedmont and Tuscany, so I already have a base for the language but I could still use a lot of help and would love to find someone who can help my daughter and I to practice Italian. We own and operate an Italian restaurant in town and organize community Italian conversation groups, which might be of interest to you. We welcome someone who also has an interest in helping with our home garden and other yard projects. Mostly though, I would like to find someone who is willing to teach my daughter and I Italian and practice with us.
  
  We live right by a trailhead with lots of hiking and biking trails. We are also just a few blocks from the grocery store and the trolley that can transport you downtown. We have an extra bicycle that we can loan to you if biking is your preferred mode of transportation. Durango is very bicycle friendly and it's a small enough town to get around to most places by bike.

Durango really has it's own laid-back, friendly, outdoorsy culture and we would love to introduce someone to it! This can be a great learning opportunity for someone hoping to improve their English as well. We are happy to show you around and introduce you to our friends and favorite places.
