  Description

  I am a single mom of a teenage son. We live in a very little village in the west part of Iceland.
  My job is being a fosterparent so children can come and go quite often so anyone staying at my home has to be able to work with kids of all ages.
  
  I love travelling, meeting new people and get to know other cultures. I speak Icelandic, English and French fluently (more or less) and then I have also studied Italian, Spanish and Danish. I love learning languages, weather it is to learn more about the languages I already have learned or to learn something new.
  
  I have worked a lot in the tourist industry in Iceland so I know my way around the country to give recommendation on where to go and what to see. I have also traveled quite a lot out side of Iceland, especially in Europe.
  
  On top of this I have hosted quite a lot of people at my home, 4 exchange students (3 for 10 months & 1 for 3 months) and then many other people for shorter periods of time. So I am used to having people at my home.

  I have good experience in communicating with foreigners so I have a quite good understanding on what is different
