Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

WE ARE VERY INTERESTED IN DENMARK, THE NETHERLANDS, FRANCE, SPAIN AND ITALY FOR SUMMER 2019, BUT ARE OPEN TO ALL OFFERS!

We are experienced exchangers, having enjoyed our first exchange in France during the Summer of 2014 and look forward to many more!

Our 1915 Craftsman-style house, very typical of the Northwestern USA, is located in Sunset Hill, within the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, 5 miles northwest from downtown. Our comfortable, light-filled house offers views of Puget Sound, Shilshole Marina and the Olympic Mountains to the west. It is bright and light-filled.

We have incredible neighbors and numerous close friends who live nearby, all of whom would be happy to offer assistance and guidance should it ever be needed.

We have a car that we can swap and bikes for both adults and children.

We have an 11-year old cat named Binx.

Attractions

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

Seattle is a wonderful city and the surrounding mountains and water make access to the incredible outdoors quick and easy. Mount Rainier National Park is 2 hour drive south. The lesser-known, but exceptional North Cascades National Park is a 2 hour drive north. Across Puget Sound and another short drive is Olympic National Park and the grand, old-growth forests of the Pacific Northwest. East of Seattle are the easily accessed Cascade Mountains and just beyond the other-worldly high-desert areas of Central and Eastern Washington State. The state itself is an outdoor lover's dream. Vancouver is 3 hours to our north and can be reached by train or car.
