We are a sociable family. John, Rebecca and Rosa (aged 13) and the details below are a composite of all of our characteristics . We live within walking distance of Shawlands with nice views over the city of Glasgow. We take the environment pretty seriously and like meeting new folks very much. Whilst we can't claim to be fluent in any language John has some Italian, Spanish and French.

We have a comfy sofa and sometimes a basement bedroom to offer.
