Meet your host family: Christine in United Kingdom

Welcome to Christine

*We are currently only accepting bed and breakfast stays at the moment. Sorry for any inconvenience. We are an American family from New York and now have moved to London this July 2024. We previously lived in Singapore for 2 years and Hong Kong for 2 years. My husband Brendan (46 years old) and myself Christine (46 years old) along with our three children Beckett (11 years old), Fiona ( 11 years old) and Wells (4 years old). My husband is a journalist for an international newspaper. I am a housewife; I am very active in my children’s school and activities outside of school.
We enjoy traveling abroad. In New York we always had au pairs for the kids because we enjoy meeting people from other cultures and learning from them. Over the years we had Brazilian, Swiss, Columbian and French au pairs live with us.
My family loves all kinds of activities: running, biking, swimming, football, American football, Aussie Rules football, rugby, softball, chess, basketball, cultural things, trying all different ethnic cuisines, cooking/baking, art/painting/crafts, shopping, hiking, bowling, trampoline parks, Virtual Reality games, going to the beach, reading, movies at the theatre, art museums, video games, watching TV and listening to music. My son Beckett enjoys reading, playing video/ board games, playing all kinds sports and listening to music. Fiona loves cheerleading, gymnastics, art projects, she enjoys creative play and doing things with her friends. We have plenty of bikes/scooters to explore the area as well.

We would like to do a cultural exchange and welcome one or two unaccompanied or accompanied children (7-16 years old) and/or families. We hope to meet you soon. Please reach out if you want to learn English and come to the UK.

A typical day with us

Every morning we would eat breakfast together and discuss the plans for the day. We are a very social and active family with three kids so there is no shortage of things to do.

Paid options organized by the family

We don't own a car. The pick up and drop off options are as follows. The pricing above includes both ways for pick up and drop off. I would take the train to pick you up, wait for you at the airport and then we would take a taxi back to my house with you and your luggage. Depending on traffic it can be 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours from the Heathrow airport to my house. For St Pancras International, I would take the train to pick you up and then we would take a taxi back to my house and same on the way back to St Pancras when you leave. Gatwick airport with driving is over 2 hours, so I would pick up via train only and take the train back with your luggage and the same thing going back the Gatwick airport.

I can inquire about English learning centers and/or tutors in the area and give you pricing.

Nous avons passé un séjour d'une semaine chez Christine à Londres avec nos deux enfants. Ce fut un séjour merveilleux ! Que dire à part que tout était parfait. C'était une première pour nous et ce qui est sûr c'est que c'était réussi. Christine se montre très disponible et réactive. Un mari très gentil et des enfants adorables ! Un énorme merci pour ce séjour !

Un enchantement !

Notre fille de 15 ans a passé 10 jours, fin octobre, chez Christine et Brendan ! Un séjour pétillant et lumineux !!! Leurs enfants Wells, Fiona et Beckett sont absolument adorables !!! Tous, ensemble, se sont énormément impliqués ! En plus d’être toujours disponible et de donner, très régulièrement, des nouvelles, Christine est excellente cuisinière, et a fait découvrir, à notre fille, de nouvelles saveurs autour des légumes d’automne et de l’esprit Halloween🎃! Bonne humeur et Harmonie ! Ça rayonne de bonheur😊✨chez Christine et Brendan ! Une famille en Or !!! Des souvenirs pour la Vie !!!

Séjour incroyable !

Ma fille de presque 16 ans est rentrée hier d’un séjour de 3 semaines chez Christine et Brendan. Elle est enchantée! Une expérience inoubliable dans une famille extraordinaire ! Vie de famille, découverte de Singapour avec Christine , sorties très variées! Je recommande !!!! Il faut ajouter que Singapour est une ville très sûre, ma fille (très timide ) n’a pas hésité à partir à la découverte des centre commerciaux et des musées seule lorsque la Famille bien que super disponible avait des obligations :) et cela est vraiment un super plus très confortable pour des agents qui sont à plus de 10 000 km! J’ajoute à ce rapide résumé de cette incroyable expérience que Christine est très réactive et disponible pour une communication très facile avec les parents! Je ne peux que recommander !!!!
