Hi everyone!
I'm Tina, mother of two children (girl 2010 and boy 2013). I'm living in a house with them and my boyfriend Mauro (and a cat).
We are a nice, simple and open minded family.
We prefer to be in calm and peacefull places. Sometimes silence can be very precious!

PLEASE READ:
In summer, during school holydays, we have more pleasure (and time!) to host someone. During the rest of time kids go to school and me and Mauro are working a lot.
Our family is our pryorithy.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Our family comes first, it's not always easy sharing time together.
If you are indipendent you're welcome!

Our home hasnt any doors. Kids are bigger now and the room we had for people is no more avaliable.

Grandparents are living in the same house, separate appartements, so maybe you can meet them. They are very nice people!
Remember, it's not a hotel, it's a cohousing situation for a short time :)

If you like, in summer, you can put a tend near the house in a piece of forest with nice wiew of the lake of lugano (unfortunately up there there is no electricity and no water).

In Melide there is a train station and in 10 minutes you are in Lugano (biggest city of ticino, the italian speaking parth of switzerland), there are many busses, boats or you can rent a bycycle. We don't have a place to park your car but you can find a pubblic parking.

Our house has the lake in front and mountain with forest on the back, a little garden. In the lake you can swimm! :)

Ask if you have questions, you're welcome.
