Koti oli esittelyä upeampi ja hyvin persoonallinen.

Ihana perhe ja upea kohde. Kohteeseen ei ollut House Manualia, mutta viestintä toimi hyvin, joten kaikki asiat selvisivät.

We are an urban, creative family of one adult and three kids. We also have two Italian waterdogs 'lagotto romagnolo' Kiara (6) and Armi (2), but they do not leave hair and are hypo-allergic dogs. The dogs will not travel with us, nor be at ours' during the exchange.

We all love citylife but also cottage life, DIY, interior design, visual designing, antiques, flea markets and handiworks. At our leisure time we spend time at home by watching movies or doing some creative leisure projects. We also wander around these lovely surroundings in parks, cafeterias or at friends'.

We love to get to know better the everyday life of other European big cities. France is our preference number one: Paris, Marseille, Normandy, Bretagne - you name it...
