Our names are Carina en Ruben en we live with our three young children (5, 3 and 0 years old) in Lent, Nijmegen. We are an active family and like to explore our direct surroundings, most of the time by foot or by bike. We traveled a lot in the times we were with the two of us. And also with our children, we like to explore new places both close to our home but also in and outside our country. Exchanging our home is a new adventure for us and we look really forward to invite you in our home.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our house it's a short walk to the beautiful located restaurants 'Stroom' and 'Zijdewinde', where you can enjoy nice food and drinks. In front of our home the dike gives you direct access to the surrounding nature. Go for a cycling or kickbike (both available for your use) trip or stroll around the banks of the river. 'Landerij de Park' in nearby Elst is a farmhouse with lots of animals and a nice playground for children. In Slijk-Ewijk you find a delightful swimming pond and beach called 'Zanzibar', with an adventure island for children. In the attractive centre of Nijmegen we recommend a city walk throughout the ancient city and a cold drink at the 'Koningsplein'.
