Quel(le) étudiant(e) souhaite passer trois semaines chez nous, en Suisse ? Nous aimerions faire un échange d'étudiants. En contrepartie, notre fille Lia (18 ans) cherche une place pour trois semaines dans un endroit francophone. Très volontiers avec une connexion familiale. Lia peut volontiers aider au ménage, à la garde des enfants, etc. Nous offrons à notre étudiant d'accueil un contact familial et bien sûr la possibilité de découvrir un peu la Suisse. Notre langue est le suisse-allemand, l'allemand standard - mais nous parlons aussi l'anglais et le français. |

Family home in central Switzerland
We live with our four children in the heart of Switzerland in Wolhusen. This is a small village about 25 kilometers from Lucerne and 70 kilometers from Bern and Zurich. Mountains, lakes and rivers are close by - we love to be out in nature. From our house there are beautiful walks over hills and through fields.
We love to talk to people and get to know new perspectives and places. We have exchanged our house several times and have been to Sweden, Holland, France and Spain.
We live in a double family house with a large garden. There is a fireplace, an octagonal fireplace, ping-pong, a trampoline, a swing and a place to play. We have a cat called Mrs. Meow and we would be happy if you could feed it.
In the house there is also a fireplace and many games plus books, Lego and Playmobil.
Our village is well served by public transportation. There are at least two trains per hour to Lucerne (15 - 25 minutes travel time) and back and one to the capital Bern (70 minutes travel time). We do not have a car and travel by bike and train. There are supermarkets, restaurants, a public swimming pool, playgrounds and more in the village.
