Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We offer:
A 1953 200m2 Cargoship from 40m x 5m completely refurbished into a lovely and spacious houseboat.

In 2012 we bought this working cargoship. A Belgian Spits. In 1,5 years we changed the hull and the outside into a spacious houseboat (200m2) with all modern utilities. The Tommycor is situated on one of the architecturally rich and tranquil Eastern Harbour islands of Amsterdam.

On the boat you will find all modern facilities to have a relaxing holiday with WiFi internet access, dishwasher, microwave, washingmachine, flat screen and DVD-player, HiFi stereo, bath, walk in shower, floorheating and two toilets. When it's really warm you can dive into the water from our bathing jetty and relax afterwards in the hammock and enjoy the little boats sailing by.

From our boat it's only 10 minutes by bike to the centre of town. You can use our bikes if you want to!

We, Georgina 48 and Rombout 52, are both Classical trained musicians (piano and percussion). Oliver is 13 and Rosa is 9.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Although very central, we live in a quiet area of Amsterdam close to all kinds of public transport. By foot it will take you 20 minutes to walk into the heart of Amsterdam. The Eastern Harbour district is famous for its stunning architecture.

At the boat you will find plenty of information about where to go, and what to do in Amsterdam. We also advise you to visit the site iamsterdam.nl to find all the latest news.

It is about half an hour drive to one of the lovely beaches of Holland.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

From the houseboat it's just a short stroll towards cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. You will love to go into town and visit the world renowned Rijksmuseum, van Gogh museum and of course the Hermitage situated on the Amstel. If you love shopping you go to the Jordaan and pop into all the beautiful boutiques in the famous nine streets. You can combine this with a trip to the Anne Frank museum. Amsterdam is famous for its canals. You can take boat trips from many different starting points.

In the evening there is a wealth of entertainment; opera, cabaret, cinema, theatre, concert halls etc.
