Host Family

I'm staying with a Czech family in Kolin, which is about an hour from Prague. The mother works as a primary school teacher and the father teaches for different schools and leads exchange programs for teachers from Turkey and other eastern European countries. They host international students and there are currently two Turkish students staying with them. The couple has 5 children- one is adopted. The father, Jiri, is well travelled and quite interesting to listen to when he speaks of the old Czech. I'm working for them as a sort of live in nanny/ housekeeper in exchange for accomodation.
