We are a widely travelled couple (scientist/authors) who neither want to make money with letting our house nor to save money with the swap. We just like to change the scene from time to time, and in the meantime our house and garden can be enjoyed by somebody else :)

Read More...Christiane and Norbert gave us one of the best exchanges we've ever had. We talked and got to know each other a lot both before and after the exchange. They were very generous in leaving us one of their cars to visit the island and it was also a pleasure that they left us in charge of Salina, the beautiful cat that lives with them, with whom we had fun and tender moments. The house, perfectly integrated in the environment, and the immense garden, that with so much affection they take care of, are fantastic. Their situation is privileged. It allows you to get to know most of the hot spots of Lanzarote without driving too many kilometres. The island thrilled us and we liked it very much. Someday we would like to return to Lanzarote and, of course, to Christiane and Norbert's house.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
The island itself is unique amongst the Canarian Islands because of its stunning volcanic landscape in beautiful colours and shapes. There are black shores (breathtaking rocks and stones as well as sandy beaches) and still quiet and lonely beaches.
For example, the National Park of Timanfaya and the Natural Park Los Volcanes, as well as the vineyard of La Geria are outstanding in the world. And of course, don't miss the Fundación César Manrique, the former residence of the artist, built into lava bubbles, as well as his numerous accessible artworks on the island such as Jameos del Agua, Mirador del Rio or El Jardín de Cactus - a ingenious combination of art, architecture and landscape with sustaining tourist attraction.

Lo qué nos gusta y lo qué no... Estas son nuestras preferencias y normas domésticas.
The basic idea of our house and garden is the realization of the combination of traditional rural life in lanzarote with contemporary comforts, asthetics and travel experiences. We love to find our house and garden as clean and tidy as it was when we left. We do the same and we always respect the belongings of others. In case you should accidently break something, please tell us frankly, we hate surprises :) Of course we have to find our cats, Salina & Luisa, alive and in good health and mood as well :) They are very kind with everybody and easy to handle.
It is strictly forbidden (as well as in most places on the island) to throw anything into the toilet (paper, sanitary towels, cigarette stubs...), there is a bin provided.
Smoking is not allowed in the house but feel free to do so on the terrace and in the garden, using the ashtrays provided.
Depending on the length of your stay, we would ask you to gather the windfall or rotten fruits as well in a bucket and throw it into the normal garbage. Depending on season it could be required to apply an ecological plant protection product. The plants, especially those in the pots, need to be watered. There is also an automatic watering which has to be switched to water different parts of the garden.
We kindly ask you to use the paths generally and not to step on the stone gardens. As for the vegetation in Lanzarote normally is very poor due to the water deficiency, the soil is usually covered with black or red granulated lava (so-called picón) to maintain the dew of the night. Thus, there is no lawn to mew, but the leaves should be raked from time to time to keep the seatings inviting.
Please understand that this is our residence and not a holiday home: no parties, no additional guests, no children, no pets.
