Hi, I'm Sonia.

I'm looking for a weekend, short or long exchange.
I can travel at any time.
Open for any proposal.
Surprise me.

Herentals has an easy accessible railwaystation.

Airports - Brussels National airport
- Eindhoven airport (mostly cheaper)
- Brussels-Charleroi airport (low budget)

I included Intervac in my style of life in 2006 and since then I have had more than 30 succesfull exchanges. I appreciate the hospitality of people from different countries and I'm already looking forward to welcome the next family.

I live in a very small charming town in the Flamish part of our country. My house is located in a quite area in the center with a lot of green surroundings. I love our Nethe valey, Kempisch Canal and the sanddunes.
But I also like the local markets on Friday and Sunday.
The beguinage is just a few minutes walk from here.
Herentals has a trainstation at walking distance from my house. It gives you the possibility to discover other villages and also big city's (Antwerp, Brussels, Brughes, Ghent,...) by train without traffic jam.
I have 1 bike and 1 e-bike (possible to use more bikes from friends). A very nice area to discover the area by bike.
I have no car, but I'm considering to participate a car-sharing program.
There is so much to do, for every age, in Herentals and the surrounding areas. You will not be bored!
The famous familypark 'Bobbejaanland' is just 8 km from here.
I live in a little, old charming house (renovated). It's a family home with 3 bedrooms.
You can use free and unlimited internet-acces.  
 
Belgium is a very little country with distinct cultures and long fascinating histories. But Belgium charms are also found in many less-spectacular corners. Belgium is more than drinking beer, eating 'stoemp', waffles, chips and chocolates!
Belgium is a country of two distinct halves. Dutch speaking Flanders has a flat landscape but is interspersed with fabulous historic cities. They lies close together and are conveniently interconnect by regular trains, even from Herentals. Antwerp is a portcity whose historical credentials are balanced by its vibrant nightlife, café-culture and cutting-edge designer fashions. Sweet little Lier, known for his béguinage, listed by Unesco. Brughes: one of Europe's most romantic getaways. Ghent is known to be one of the most authentic city's. I can also recommend you Mechelen and Leuven. In French speaking Wallonia most attractions are contrastingly rural: caves, castles, bucolic valleys and outdoor activities. Fascinating Liège, Namur with his mighty fortress and pitoresque old town centre, Bouillon with his 'chateau', Dinant, beautifull nature in Rochehout et La Roche-en-Ardennes. The Eastern cantons is best known for the Hautes Fagnes area of moorlands (largest nationally protected naturereserve) that lies between pleasant towns  Eupen and Malmédy. Here you also find the Spa-Francorchamps Belgium Grand Prix Formula 1 circuit.. And than you have Brussels of course. The Grand Place is one of world's most beautifull squares. Don't mis the unique 1985 Atomium.
Belgium is the capital of Europe. Very good connections by highway's, high-speed trains or low-cost flights to other European cities as Amsterdam , Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, Barcelona, Venice,....
