FR2110560Kees and Ana have provided us with a beautiful house in a very good location. We were then confident after our first exchanges by e-mail. We very much appreciated meeting them at the end of the stay on the way back to our respective homes. I encourage Intervac members who don't know Belgium to swap Kees and Ana.

FR011165Quel échange fabuleux!
Nous nous sommes sentis tout de suite extrêmement bien dans cette superbe maison si bien située pour découvrir Bruges, et très bien décrite sur le site. Des échanges très amicaux qui vont rester. A pied en 10mn en ville et aussi grâce aux vélos à disposition, nous avons pu visiter autour avec plaisir malgré le temps de novembre. Un gâteau nous attendait à la maison...
Que demander de plus. Merci à Kees et Anna et à Intervac.

FR2010444We highly recommend an exchange with Anna and Kees. The location of their home was perfect to explore Brugges by foot or local buses. They have a comfortable, well equipped home with parking and a beautiful garden. Communications with Kees was easy and informative and lots of information on what to do in the area was left for us.
We returned to a very clean house. Thanks for a lovely exchange. We look forward to staying in touch and maybe exchanging again in the near future.
