    Description

    We are a family of 3, some days Aleix and Elna.
    I work at home as a visual artist and also outside giving art classes and with community art projects, I also organize a visual arts festival in the city of Girona. I am a very culturally restless person and I am always visiting festivals and art centers, but it is not necessary that the person who comes likes art, but if they like it they will be able to experience the atmosphere of Girona and its surroundings related to the artistic and cultural world.

    Som una família de 3, alguns dies Aleix i Elna.
    Jo treballo a casa com artista visual i també a fora donant classes d'art i amb projectes artístics comunitaris, també ornganitzo un festival d'arts visuals a la ciutat de Girona. Soc una persona molt inquieta culturalment i estic sempre visitant festivals i centres d'art , però no es necessari que la persona que vingui li agradi l'art, però si l'agrada podrà viure l'ambient de Girona i les seves rodalies relacionat amb el món artístic i cultural.

    Help

    We are not looking for an Au Pair or nanny, We are looking for somebody who is a native English speaker or speaks English very well. We want to practice the language. We ask that this person can give us english classes and help with the house.
    We would like to speak english all the time with the host, as a way to learn the language.

    I'm a painter, and i have the studio in the home, the host can use the studio, and if she/he loves can go with me in my artistic classroom with children or women. Also i organitze artistic festival in the first weekend in june.
    We aren't a hostal or hotel, so we are looking for one person for a minimum stay (minium) more or less 3 or 4 weeks. We would like he/she to take time to integrate into the family and have a real experience of catalan life.
