Francesca, an Italian au pair in Sweden
Francesca was an au pair in Sweden, where she found a lovely family that shared a common passion for gymnastics with her. Sweden is not a very well-known destination for au pairs, but Francesca focused on the families rather than the destination in making her selection. She actually recorded a video in Italian with her experience too. Curious to watch her answers to the 7 questions in English? Play the video!
