| Most people in Belgium know English and many understand French wich is spoken mainly in brussels and in the south of belgium, some people also know german. Together with my mothertongue Dutch (as in the Netherlands) which amounts for 60%, those are the three official languages of Belgium.
Neighbours are England (across our ocean), the Netherlands, Germany, France, Luxembourg, they are all close by as belgium is very small. London is by train 2-3 hours, Paris too, Amsterdam 2 hours etc.
This is a great opportunity, this region is very central, high living standards and rich cultural offering.
Some photos of local cities : I can send some links to give you and idea.
I hope I'll find the right, nice, kind, responsible and motivated girl. For such a girl there are a lot of chances and there will be assistance by me in everything I can do. Anything is discussable in compatibility with the tasks of being my aupair.
Staying with the family is possible for a very long period but small periods are also possible.
Many possibilities are available to learn about the country and to grow intellectually. The house is cetrally located in the village in a nice and green environment, lux and comfty big house with many facilities, pc with 24 hours broadband internet available and digital TV (cable + satellite, foreign channels) and cinema (4 meter screen). Swimmingpool and several sportcenters just behind the corner. Nature preserve at 500m. Good public transport by bus and train minutes away by foot.
Twentyfive minutes by train to the center of Antwerp, one hour to Brussels, a very enjoyable international city (second harbor of europe) with many facitilities and recreational or cultural possiblities. Not far from here there are very nice art cities such as Brugge and Gent, the coast, Paris, Amsterdam, London etc.
