Became a member in: 2017
Renewal Date: 01/Jun/2024
We are a family of 5, who love travelling and discovering new things, big and small. Our 3 kids are getting older, and the 2 of them left home already, but they might or might not join us for our summer holiday. Our daughter is 21 and still lives at home. We have enjoyed camping since 2002 and have made many lovely memories over the years, visiting mountainous areas, big cities and the south of Europe, generally.
Our Easter holiday for 2024 has been planed for a long time and now we are seeking an exchange for the summer or fall of 2024.
Tanja works as a teacher in public school and Bent is in IT-management. When we are not working we enjoy reading, playing games (board and computer), karate, wine, going to concerts and the theatre, spending time with our kids and each other, and generally enjoying life to the fullest.
As a note, Tanjas parents live in the house facing the road (see pictures) and they don't travel. If there is anything you need, they can help out.

Read More...We had an amazing week in Tanja & Bent's home in Denmark. The house was beautifully clean, well-furnished, a very well stocked fridge & a huge TV! It is very well placed for visiting Legoland and the Lego House, as well as the beaches to the west. It is only a 30minute drive from Billund Airport and it is very quiet. Tanja's parents (who live on-site) made us most welcome and were very helpful.

Read More...Beautiful holiday and perfect hospitality !! Our trip to Denmark was very nice. The house of Tanja and Bent is welcoming, bright, spacious and with everything you need. We felt immediately at home, thanks to the presence of the parents of Tanja who have pampered us with the vegetables of the magnificent garden and recommended on places to visit. Denmark is a very beautiful land: cities, Viking places, enchanting beaches ... We did not get bored, we rested and enjoyed the exceptional weather. Thanks again to Tanja and Bent for the perfect hospitality ... be the first of many exchanges with Homelink:)))

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
After some passive years, we are now ready to pick up homelinking. In the near future we will update our home with new pictures as we have been doing some rearranging and updating as well indoors as outdoors. We hope to find an exchange in July 2024.
Our home is a spacious countryside house with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, approx. 10.000 m2 garden with big lawns, trampoline and a big vegetable garden. It used to be a horse stable but has been rebuilt completely. Close to a nearby stream for canoeing, hiking, or just enjoying the silence. We offer WIFI with high-speed internet, HBOMax, Disney+ and Netflix available as well. If you fly in we can arrange the use of a car for your stay.
The closest town Vejen is just 10 mins away. Here you will find several supermarkets, shops, and a few restaurants and cafés. Ribe just a 25 min. drive away is the oldest city in Denmark and is famous for its Viking Heritage Museum, Cathedral, Museum for Witchcraft and the old town centre.
Close to Ribe, Legoland, The Wadden Sea
The Motorway E20 is 10 minutes away and gives easy access to Kolding (30 km), Esbjerg (50 km), Odense (100 km), Århus (125 km), Copenhagen (250 km) and Hamburg (250km).
