    Description

    We are an Italian family : I’m Serena , 49 years old, Alice of 15 y.o. and Lorenzo of 18 years old. I work for PosteItaliane, I’m the director of a big office . I like my work but I prefer spend my time with my family!! I work from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. from Monday to Saturday. During the afternoon I stay at home with my children, I go to the gym and to the swim. All of us love music and my 2 children study piano and cello at the Conservatory of Lucca. In summer we are free from musical appointment so we decided how to spend our time ( going to the beach or in the mountains) .We have a garden and in summer we use to stay for play or to relax. Alice sing in the Puccini ‘s choir at Puccini festival during the summer. In our familiy the music never stop !!! The study English from they were little but I like they speak fluently. We live very close to the old center of Lucca , we can move by bicycle or by walk . Lucca is a small city In Toscany and from here you can visit Florence, Pisa, Siena . We have a black cat called Dasy, but she is very shiny and in summer she lives outside. Our great love is Greta , our little dog . She is so lovely and friendly with everyone. I like visiting museum , cities and going at every cultural event, so during the afternoon I and my children will be happy to go with you in every place!! I need of someone who speaks in English in the morning with my children and me . They aren't little so what I need is someone who stay with them speaking English but the don't need to take care.And don’t worry: I won’t ask you to clean up the house 😃 (I have a very good lady that comes one day every week to clean)
