We are a serious and reliable couple, and we always take good care of houses and belongings for our exchangefriends.
We have been married for more than 30 years, and raised 3 children who now are finishing their studies. We found this lovely place and build our house 20 years ago. The whole family have made over 10 home exchanges in Europe.
All of us like travelling and making new friends from other countries and cultures.
Our jobs make it possible for us to have vacation and days off at different times of the year.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We live in a beautiful, high standard and modern home, near the Drammensfjord and Drammen city, half an hour south of Oslo, the capital of Norway. Our home is cozy and you will enjoy yourself here. Our large family kitchen opens through french doors to a large terrace with panoramic view, a lot of sun and a glass house. We have many beautiful sandy beaches nearby, and skiing facilities in wintertime. The town centre is only 10 minutes away by car or bus, and 35 mins directly to Oslo by train or highway. Easy connection to Bergen by train from Drammen.
Our 3 children lives and studies in other cities, and are only occationally joining our exchange. We pride ourselves in taking care of other people`s homes and belongings. We have a nice cat that requires just a little caretaking from you, and can stay alone for some days. Our exchangefriends have always been very positive about our home and area. Please contact us for more details! We also have easy access to both Oslo Gardermoen Airport and Oslo Torp Airport (We recommend Norwegian or Ryanair).
