We are a hospitable family, both just retired: Wilma (62), former financial administrator and Jan (67), former tourist guide and environmental project manager, with our lovely and responsible 26 year old daughter Tessa, who now lives and works in nearby Uithoorn. Together with her boyfriend Robin Tessa nowadays almost always travels independently from us. Next to mountainous areas and nature we appreciate to visit historic, cultural cities and occasionally to wind down on tropical beaches also. Real music and wine lovers, who love to dine out, but also cook all kinds of (ethnic) food. Seasoned travelers who go on holidays as often as we can; flexible and ingenious in solving schedule and travel problems. As for now 'pensionados' ... and school holidays do no longer limit our desire to explore new horizons throughout the world. Meanwhile we have offered hospitality (with pleasure !) to dozens of couples (± 60 in the meantime) and done more than 160 successful exchanges, the majority of them being through the HomeExchange site; the most spectacular ones and absolute highlights: in 2015 a 3 month round trip in Australia (16 consecutive exchanges), 8 in New Zealand (2016), 7 in Brasil (2017, 1½ month) & 7 in the U.S.A.-Far West (2012, 1½ month also), 13 in Spain (2 months this autumn 2022). Looking forward to welcome you, Jan & Wilma!

Beschreibung unserer Nachbarschaft und Gegend
We live just a 350m west of the historic "Jordaan"-quarter with innumerable cafés, restaurants and boutique-shops etc. All other kinds of shops and supermarkets, as well as public transport are within easy walking distance. All major cultural and tourist attractions can be easily reached by either walking, bike or by public transport. In our direct neighborhood are a small park with benches and a playground as well as a public swimming pool (5 min. walk). Amsterdam is a beautiful, historic place with all you expect in a big city, while retaining a village-like atmosphere. Flat and compact with bikes as basic means of transport, also excellent for trips into the beautiful Dutch polder-landscape or the "Zaanse Schans" windmills. North Sea all-sandy beaches and dunes to be reached within ½-¾hour by car or public transport, lots of picturesque towns & villages like Haarlem / Alkmaar / Hoorn / Volendam / Marken. Great train connections:Leiden-Utrecht-The Hague-Delft-Rotterdam-Amersfoort-Alkmaar-Enkhuizen all within 1hr!
