Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Bright penthouse apartment with two huge (each 30sqm) rooftop terraces overlooking the city. Enjoy a great unobstructed view from the sea to the mountains, and on the iconic Sagrada Familia.
Our beautiful apartment is filled with light, art, comfort, and love. The front terrace (afternoon sun) full of plants (auto watering system, but some need some additional watering) has plenty of seating and creates an extension to the open kitchen/living space. The back terrace (morning sun) is more open, with room for drying clothes, yoga mats, or kids playing: There's a toy house and we have a little kids pool there in the summer.
Speaking of kids, there's a changer, a separate kids bed (no walls) next to ours in the main bedroom, and plenty of toys around from our 3-year old. the pictures are from before Alia, so there are a lot more toys and books around, if you need them..
The kitchen is open towards the living room, there's a big dining table for 8-10 people and a sofa area, as well as 2.5 bedrooms (two doubles + one baby area) and 2 bathrooms (one with bathtub).
The building has an elevator, and a portera in the morning hours. A cleaner usually comes weekly.
We have 2 bikes you can use, one with a children's seat.
We have lots of plants, and even though there's a watering system for many of them, we ask you to show them some love.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
While we are close to the historic center (10 min) and lively areas (5 min), our neighborhood is very residential: good supermarkets (from cheap to organic), a market, cafes, a playground, great Italian artisanal ice-cream.- it's quiet and with few tourists still.
Within 5 min walking there's 3 supermarkets, 3 24h-stores, 10 restaurants, a train station (Arc de Triompf, many local trains stop here, to take you to a nicer beach), a regional bus station (to get to e.g. Costa Brava spots) 2 subway stops.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
It's close to the center, the old town, and Barcelona is a small city to get around and see the sights.
Interesting day trips
Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We'd like to have a mutual call to go over how the house works, and we'd ask you to please water our plants (many have an automatic system). :)
