  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  lucca is a beautiful town. It offers language courses, music, opera (Puccini was born here), there is a big expat comunity around. It is in a perfect spot to visit the rest of Tuscany. I can happily offer some italian lessons, or italian conversation, and tourist information at any time, and if you are interested in italian cooking, why not, lets give it a try!
  I run a b&b since ten years and I am used to and love to have people around, get to know them, share my life with them. Also my children are used to comunicate and have new people around the whole time: we are all very happy to have you here and help you to have a lovely experience in our small world

  Aide

  I would need help with the children ( age 14, 11, 9 and 4) as taking them on a walk, playing games and speaking some english. Also some house holding would be lovely: tidying up here and there as the children walk creating caos. We have two dogs that need to be walked: one is young and has a lot of energy, so I have to think of taking her on a walk several times a day: would be nice if we could share the task. And some gardening help once in a while would help. All of this in an easy going way, everyday can be different. The important is that, as my husband is often gone, we would love to have someone positive, energetic and sensitive around, especially in the afternoon hours, when children are back from school

  Hébergement

  We have a big guest room for you with private bathroom, that in spring/summer we rent out as b&b. It is very cosy, comfortable and quiet. I am vegetarian, but do cook once in a while meat for the children. We have a large well equipped kitchen, a dining room and living room: there is enough space for all of us also in rainy days. We do have internet wifi that you can use: it works well but can be slow some times, as it goes via radio signal
