We're a couple of Language teachers (Manuel and São) in our early fourties. Our son, Pedro, is 16 years old. Usually we travel with another friend of ours, Isabel, also a Language teacher.
We have made five home exchanges so far with a nice Canadian family, a Spanish, two French and an Italien.
We enjoy to travel and to meet new people.
We speak French, Spanish and English.
