Wir arbeiten beide in Berlin als Lehrer, Susanne ist Grundschullehrerin, Johannes unterrichtet in der Oberschule Musik und ist Chorleiter. 2019/20 waren wir ein Jahr im Sabbatical und auch mit Homelink auf Reisen, was uns sehr gefallen hat. Leider müssen wir noch arbeiten und sind daher auf die Ferienzeiten angewiesen.
We both work as teachers in Berlin, Susanne is a primary school teacher, Johannes teaches music in high school and is a choirmaster. In 2019/20 we took a sabbatical for a year and also traveled with Homelink, which we really liked. Unfortunately we still have to work and are therefore dependent on the holiday periods.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our small but nice apartment is in Berlin-Wilmersorf, near the Kudamm, the zoo and various cinemas and theaters. As always, Berlin is very green, the Tiergarten is only 3 km away. The apartment is on a side street and in the mornings and evenings the birds can be heard singing through the street canyons. The balcony faces south-west and is on the 6th floor above the surrounding roofs. The area is very good for cycling and walking tours. You can reach the west as well as the east city quickly. The subway station Güntzelstraße is almost directly in front of the door (3 minutes walk). Of course, shopping facilities are also nearby. The street in front of the apartment has no parking space management, so you can park for free. During the holidays there are plenty of parking spaces in front of the door and you will always find one sooner or later. Sadly the facade of the house will be renovated in 2023, so the balcony side until summer and after that the kitchen and bedroom side of the house will unfortunately be blocked with scaffolding. But the apartment is like in the pictures.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
The house is a post-war house with a total of seven floors. The apartment is on the sixth floor (we have an elevator). The neighborhood is pleasantly quiet. In the area there is a wine shop, Aldi, Edeka, dm, an ice cream shop, a small shopping center and many other shops. The Bavarian Quarter is nearby. It is characterized by the fact that many beautiful streets with wonderful old Wilhelminian style houses lead to squares that are beautifully designed. City walks are really an asset. There are also many very good restaurants in the area.

You are invited to use everything inside the apartement, but try to return it, where you found it.
Smoking in the flat ist not permitted, but feel free to do so outside on the balcony and use the ashtrays. Please understand that this is our residence and not a holiday home: no parties, no additional guests, no pets.
