We are a multilingual, multicultural Brooklyn family. We welcome you in our home and appreciate your hospitality. I was raised in Rio de Janeiro and New Orleans, and I am now raising my children in Brooklyn speaking Portuguese at home. My seven-year-old daughter is also fluent in French. My kids are already experienced world travelers. We have an awesome cat, Alex, who loves new people, but he has been on an extended vacation at my parents' home and will likely be there during your visit.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our home is a floor-thru 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. The apartment was renovated in 2017 and we are the first residents. It is one flight up. One bedroom has a queen bed, and the children's bedroom has two twin beds. We live with our cool cat, Alex, but he has been on an extended vacation at my parents’ home, and will only return to us in 2022. Our neighborhood has some of the most beautiful streets in Brooklyn, and it is one of the most child-friendly areas in New York City. It is also one of the best places to eat in New York. There are many great restaurants within minutes from our home. Carroll Gardens has become a popular neighborhood among French expats. Whole Foods, a major supermarket, is only a few minutes away, and the subway is 1 minute from our apartment.
