Large Single Family Home
Overview
Hello ! And welcome to my family here in the DMV area . We currently live in Fairfax County VA near George Mason University, tysons corner and 40 min from Washington DC. We have a lot of experience with international students already and we look forward to sharing our culture, language and beautiful capital area here in the USA with you . We can not wait to meet you! We are a tight knit family of all adults Male and Females were the youngest is 32 years old . We normally work Monday through Friday so we like to do things on sat and we normally do a family dinner or barbecue or something relaxing on Sundays. We try to do 1 group outing one sunday or sat a month. We love going to museums, festivals, concerts, parks , farmers markets, amusement parks ,movies and shopping. We encourage that you come along on our outings so you can practice your English and experience new experiences. We have had multiple students come and they loved it. As mentioned before we have hosted before and we have been international students as well so we understand being a international students is also about the experience of the culture as well as learning the language . We do have 3 medium to big dogs that are professionally trained , 2 cats, a bird and at times we do foster work with puppies that stay in the she shed which is a separate from the main house. You would have to be ok with animals because they won't go in your room or bathroom but they are in the house. We are able to separate them though and keep them to certain parts of the house so you don't have to interact with them a lot unless you want to. The 2 cats roam around outside the house but stay mostly to the laundry section . There are a total of 4 adults in the household and the house is pretty big with 8 bedrooms, 2 living rooms ( one being a game room) , dining room, Kitchen, and 3.5 bathroom . We have maid service that comes every 2 weeks so they would clean your space and the bathroom you use plus the whole house. The house also has a backyard with a large deck ,a vegetable garden , and outdoor barbecue area. We have 3-4 rooms available upstairs with 2 full bathrooms that are shared. The rooms come with a bed ,desk ,closet space and storage , internet and TV . I am a teacher in Fairfax County public schools , Gisella and John works for Verizon corporate and Elissa is a student just to give you some idea of what we do in the house . Vienna metro station is 15 min driving and the bus stop is 10 min walk from the house . We can drop off to Vienna metro for additional fee. We look forward to welcoming you to our home!
