Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our family house has the best of both worlds: city and countryside. The house is spacious and cosy. It has a superb view in front (meadows+ wood) & a garden in the back. It is newly renovated (240 sq. meters).
We are located in Ghent, a 'pocket sized metropolis' known for its music, festivals and historic centre. The city centre is 10 minutes on bike form our doorstep. Brussels, Lille and Ostend are half an hour away by train.
