Meet your host family: Non in France

In Normandy near PARIS

We live in Normandy, in Elbeuf, which is located 30 minutes from the city of Rouen. Normandy is a beautiful region offering lush landscapes as well as a rich cultural and artistic heritage. We are 1.5 hours from Paris, which allows us to take excursions to this city easily.

My family consists of myself, my partner (who is away all week), and my two children: Céleste, 15 years old, who is enrolled in a private school, and Virgile, 16 years old, who is homeschooled.

We live in a beautiful house that is very pleasant to live in and well-kept. It has a great location that allows us to be 5 minutes from a bakery, 5 minutes from the forest and nature, and close to schools. We have a lovely yard where we can sunbathe in the summer and have a small rabbit farm and two beehives.

We have 4 bedrooms. Our guest will have a spacious room (20m2) equipped with a comfortable double bed, a desk, and a reading nook (a single bed). Siblings or best friends are welcome, as we can accommodate 3 people in the room.

Our diet is balanced, of good quality, and many products are organic. I cook a lot: cakes, biscuits, and sometimes even bread are homemade, orange juice is often made from fresh fruit, and the pizzas are entirely homemade. I would be happy to share this passion for cooking with our guest if they wish. I am lactose intolerant, so I am used to adapting to specific dietary needs if necessary.

With an engineering background, I taught for 15 years. I offer, at no extra charge, French lessons (Montessori-inspired) as well as math tutoring (a universal language). I have also been a firefighter for several years. Therefore, I am attentive to the safety of my home and the people in it. I am trained in first aid.

I welcome children and teenagers of all nationalities; they will be treated as a family member and participate in our family life and its organization. We attend Catholic mass every week (no obligation). Near our home, there is a Protestant and evangelical church.

I offer long, fully immersive stays with schooling, and I invite you to contact me if you are interested in this type of stay. I also offer stays of 1 to 4 weeks, with a customized program. I propose 5 types of activities for which we will establish the schedule together before the stay, including: French/math lessons, culinary workshops, sightseeing tours, leisure activities, and tennis camps. Prices will vary depending on the activities and the stay you choose. The base price includes many activities (lessons, local visits, Eiffel Tower, etc.). If you have other needs (sports/leisure/health…), do not hesitate to contact me so that I can adapt to your needs.

Your French immersion experience :
A typical day with us

For school stays. In the morning, breakfast follows the school schedule, the table is set. Then it's off to school for Céleste and back to his room for schoolwork for Virgile. At noon, Virgile and I have a meal that I have cooked. Céleste eats in the cafeteria.

When school is over, it’s snack time (homemade cake or fresh bread) and homework time. In the evening, we prepare the meal together and then eat around the table. Some evenings, everyone's activities overlap with our organization. On Wednesday afternoons, it’s sports for everyone; we will offer a membership to a sports club of choice (there are many). Saturdays and Sundays are more relaxing days where we enjoy going for walks or going to Paris.

For short stays: Mornings are suitable for French classes and/or sports workshops, in the afternoons we carry out (included in the price) cultural or leisure activities: culinary workshops, sailing outings, sports outings, a day in Paris, a visit to the city of Rouen, a movie night.
