About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Babysitting ;)

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Lina. Stefan, Leo, Valeska and I live in Leipzig and enjoy going to the zoo, eating pasta with tomato sauce and going places.
We both study and Leo goes to kindergarten. Since we have no grandparents nearby it'll be hard for us to go partying with you, but we enjoy going out on the weekend, good food (if you cook it ;) and games of all sorts.
I studied interpreting (English and Spanish) and i'm learning French. So it would be a special pleasure for me to host non-Germans. I'm also happy to teach a little German and explain the difference between translation and interpretation.
I've you'd like to know more - come visit our couch!

PHILOSOPHY

We only have one world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach handicrafts and am very interested in technical matters (how does my microwave oven work etc).

We can also show you what life is like with two small kids ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

We love sitting around the kitchen table once the children are asleep and talk about all kinds of subjects. Stefan knows a lot about politics (he works with refugees) and I have interpreted for very different clients (from ophthalmologists to sociologists) - and of course we know all the best jokes for children ;9
