🏳🌈2022, how we long to travel... all purposal are welcome during Belgian school holidays, for 2022 we are looking for a swap 1-3 weeks in July.
We live in East Belgium: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFadcqhEp7s&feature=youtu.be Step out the door and go: hiking, MTB, relaxing by a lake or river, visit Monchau, Malmedy, Liege, Eupen, Maastricht, Aachen, ... in winter when it snows you can langlauf, starting point is 100m from our door,... You're welcome to use our spaceous home with a beautiful view and 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, big garden with firepit, terrases, pond and pushbikes to use. We own an old farmer house that's been extended and renovated with the use of natural and ecological materials. If needed we can exchange our car. You will find all modern comfort: Wifi, digital TV, dishwasher, energy by heat-pomp and solar systems. Because a holiday is a time to do everything but cleaning (dust and crumbles vanish easily, so don't bother about that, all we ask and will do in your house is respect painting, wallpapering, carpenting, furniture,... to us that is more important).
