We are a family that is strongly tied together. We have experienced that life is not always easy, but in spite of this, our lives can still blossom. We have five children, but only three still live at home. Our oldes son is getting married soon and our oldest daugther has also found her own place. But we still have Ofelia who is 17 yrs at home plus the two "small ones" Zakarias who is 8 and Aya who is 7 yrs of age. I lead an NGO organisation and my wife is a teacher. We have been married for more than 25 years :-). We love seeing new parts of Europe every summer and is trusting that Covid will not get in the way this year.

Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
A beautiful danish designed recent renovated family house only 20 minuts from Copenhagen Downtown. Just go to the small train station two minuts away and you have all of Copenhagen within your reach in a few minuts.
After entering the house you find yourself in the large living room. To your left is the large cozy couch in a nordic designed arrangement and a fireplace. To your right is the dinner table and the open kitchen area.
As you walk down the hallway you pass by two bathrooms and five rooms. The masterbedroom iis at the end of the hallway. It also serves as a small living room for the adults with lounge chairs. A relaxed atmosphere is brought about through a delicate use of danish design items.
In the basement you find a cozy"hang out" room with computer and apple tv.
In the garden there is a covered patio, and from here you can look to the playhouse and the large and safe trampolin.
The area is very friendly and you both have parks and shops in walking distance.

Neighbourhood
Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Skovlunde was a small village dating back to 1249 b.c. Since the train came to the village in 1949 the village have grown into a suburb for Copenhagen, but without loosing its special flavour. Still today when you walk through the old part of Skovlunde, you see houses that tell the story of when this place was a tiny village.
Two large parks give the whole area a touch of nature which is consistent with its name. Skovlunde means "a gathering of trees".
In one of the parks, "Skovlunde naturpark" you can go hiking and find the "Harrestrup Stream". Close to the stream you find a shelter, a nature playground and possibility to light a fire. (Firewood is provided). A golf course is found nearby.
Skovlunde is a friendly and peacful place to live. Here you have both Copenhagen close by, but also nature and the necessary shops for buying food and other neccessities. And with the train or with bikes, you have access to the wide Copenhagen area within minuts.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Skovlunde is a suburb to Copenhagen, but from here you can reach everything in minuts through trains or busses. Or just borrow our bikes and try the bike highway. You can be at the beach on Amagerstrand in 30 minuts, or visit the little Mermaid close to Østerport. Here you also find the national gallery with its unique collections. In 25 minuts you can be at Rosenborg Castle and feel history become alive as you visit the royal chambers. The list goes on, whether you are interested in nordic food restaurants, danish design, cozy and relaxed cafees or trendy Ørestad.
Don't miss the unique amusement park right in Cph downtown, Tivoli. You kids will love it. Or what about visiting "Round Tower" or discover Cph, by boat, sailing in all the small canals going through the city? As you out there, buy you lunch at "Papirøen" which has become famous for its "indoor - outdoor food market".
People who has been to Copenhagen, loves it. It has so much atmosphere, and yet is so easily accessible.
