Welcome to Christine
We are an American family from New York and now have moved to London this July 2024. We previously lived in Singapore for 2 years and Hong Kong for 2 years. My husband Brendan (46 years old) and myself Christine (46 years old) along with our three children Beckett (11 years old), Fiona (11 years old) and Wells (4 years old). My husband is a journalist for an international newspaper. I am a housewife; I am very active in my children’s school and activities outside of school.
We enjoy traveling abroad. In New York we always had au pairs for the kids because we enjoy meeting people from other cultures and learning from them. Over the years we had Brazilian, Swiss, Columbian and French au pairs live with us.
My family loves all kinds of activities: running, biking, swimming, football, American football, Aussie Rules football, rugby, softball, chess, basketball, cultural things, trying all different ethnic cuisines, cooking/baking, art/painting/crafts, shopping, hiking, bowling, trampoline parks, Virtual Reality games, going to the beach, reading, movies at the theatre, art museums, video games, watching TV and listening to music. My son Beckett enjoys reading, playing video/board games, playing all kinds sports and listening to music. Fiona loves cheerleading, gymnastics, art projects, she enjoys creative play and doing things with her friends. We have plenty of bikes/scooters to explore the area as well.
We would like to do a cultural exchange and welcome one or two unaccompanied or accompanied children (7-16 years old) and/or families. We hope to meet you soon. Please reach out if you want to learn English and come to the UK.
We have a room on the third floor with a private full bathroom and a Queen bed with private terrace, we can add another twin mattress to accommodate parents and children. We are open to couples, families and children accompanied or not by an adult.
There will not be other guests of the same nationality during your stay.
Every morning we would eat breakfast together and discuss the plans for the day. We are a very social and active family with three kids so there is no shortage of things to do. We can have dinner together or independently. If there is something that you would like to do please mention it and we will try to accommodate.
Notre fille de 15 ans a passé 10 jours, fin octobre, chez Christine et Brendan ! Un séjour pétillant et lumineux !!! Leurs enfants Wells, Fiona et Beckett sont absolument adorables !!! Tous, ensemble, se sont énormément impliqués ! En plus d’être toujours disponible et de donner, très régulièrement, des nouvelles, Christine est excellente cuisinière, et a fait découvrir, à notre fille, de nouvelles saveurs autour des légumes d’automne et de l’esprit Halloween🎃! Bonne humeur et Harmonie ! Ça rayonne de bonheur😊✨chez Christine et Brendan ! Une famille en Or !!! Des souvenirs pour la Vie !!!
Ma fille de presque 16 ans est rentrée hier d’un séjour de 3 semaines chez Christine et Brendan. Elle est enchantée! Une expérience inoubliable dans une famille extraordinaire ! Vie de famille, découverte de Singapour avec Christine , sorties très variées! Je recommande !!!! Il faut ajouter que Singapour est une ville très sûre, ma fille (très timide ) n’a pas hésité à partir à la découverte des centre commerciaux et des musées seule lorsque la Famille bien que super disponible avait des obligations :) et cela est vraiment un super plus très confortable pour des agents qui sont à plus de 10 000 km! J’ajoute à ce rapide résumé de cette incroyable expérience que Christine est très réactive et disponible pour une communication très facile avec les parents! Je ne peux que recommander !!!!
