Modern flat for 2-3 people in popular district of Hamburg (Altona) plus flat by the North Sea
Ours is a flat on two levels with the advantages of a big city and a quiet position at the same time. The train station is just around the corner and the trains carry you to the airport in abt. 35 min. and to the downtown centre with the Alster lake in abt. 15 min. Shopping, incl. open air markets, are at walking distance, just as international restaurants, but there are lots of bus stops around the corner which can carry you to other interesting parts of town. The Elbe, our main river, is abt. 5 min. walking away. You can hike to the interesting spots, have a drink there or take a trip by boat. Bikes available.
At the same time we offer a small holiday flat by the North Sea in St Peter Ording, for 2 people, with a balcony, at walking distance to the sea.

About Our Family
We are a couple with grown-up children who do not live with us anymore. Gerrit, the husband, is still working. Sabine has been retired for two years now and is busy with different kinds of volunteer work with immigrants and with theater playing. Whenever we can (abt. every second weekend) we go to our holiday flat by the North Sea, where we go to the sauna, take long walks, relax and visit our mother of 88 who lives nearby.
Our hobbies are travelling, hiking, reading, politics, history, theatre and concerts. The part of town we live in is ideal for all of this, because the river Elbe plus the harbour are just around the corner, on the other hand the area is very urban, ideal for walking, cinemas etc. The centre is reached by public transport in abt. 20 min.

DE0048Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswerte Tauschpartner. Die schriftliche Kommunikation verlief sehr angenehm. Die Wohnung war toll, gepflegt und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Für Hamburger Verhältnisse ein sehr großer Balkon. Das Haus liegt verkehrsgünstig, dennoch sehr ruhig.
