Our daughter Jule is 21 and studying in Leipzig and Ghent (Belgium) and might not be able to join us. Our son Leo is 17. We are both teachers (Maths, Geography/German, English), 51 years old and love to travel. We've had three exchanges with families from Queensland and one with a family from Berlin. We are sorry, but we can only stay at pet free apartments/houses since Marc is allergic to pets.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We live in a rural area. Knittlingen has about 7000 inhabitants. Forest and beautiful vineyards are in walking distance (5 min), Stuttgart (60km), Black Forest, Karlsruhe (30km) and Heidelberg are nearby (60km). Maulbronn monastery (Unesco World Heritage site, 5km) is a highlight. From here you can plan your daytrips to France (Alsace) and Lake Constance. Our house is in a nice dead end street with houses built in 2005. Behind the garden is a small stream. There are three bedrooms and an additional room in the cellar which has lots of windows and is very bright. We love our home and would like to make you feel comfortable, too.
