Comfortable home close to city centre and woods

Dear Intervac friends,

We are a family of 5. Our two oldest children are twins of 21 years old. They are studying in Groningen and The Hague. The youngest still lives at home, he is 18 years. Nowadays we do a house exchange with the two of us: Alastair (53) and Akke (50). We are open to offers in the Netherlands and abroad. We have a cat to look after. If you are not here for one night, the neighbors can also look after her.

We live in Leeuwarden, a small version of Amsterdam. It is the capital of Friesland. Our semi-detached house is small but comfortable for up to five persons. We have four bedrooms with sleeping capacity for 7 (three double beds and one single bed). There is one bathroom. The living space is about 125 m2 divided over three floors. The house is located in a green and quiet estate bordering the Leeuwarder woods. Sometimes there are even deer in our street. It is only 10 minutes cycling to the city center of Leeuwarden. Various recreational cycling routes pass our house as well. Amsterdam is only one hour and 15 minutes by car, and the Wadden islands are very close. It is possible to visit a Wadden island for one day, for instance Schiermonnikoog or Ameland.

We love exploring new places. We have had very nice house exchanges in Iceland, France (Bretagne, Bordeaux, French Alps), Belgium (Ghent and Antwerp), Northern Germany (Bremen and a small village), Switzerland, Norway (Stavanger), Denmark, Scotland, Spain (Ebro Delta) and in the Netherlands (Brabant and South Holland).
