About Our Family

We are a family of four. We work as a Secretary General at the West Nordic Council in Reykjavik and an Occupational Therapist at VIRK, an Icelandic vocational rehabilitation fund. Our kids, Helga and Kristjan, are 14 and 11 years old.
We lived abroad (in Sweden and Denmark) for nine years and have also lived for a shorter period in Spain, France, and Chile. We moved back to our native Iceland in 2013.
We have been exchanging homes with families for many years and we have been members of Intervac since 2015.
We mostly like to stay in cities, but we might be open to other possibilities.
Unfortunately one member of the family has pet allergies and we can therefore not exchange with homes that have pets.

Lifestyle

Our common interests are culture, travelling, cooking, outdoor activities, and spending time with family and friends. We love to experience new places and learn about their culture, food, history, etc.
