We are a retired couple. Both of us have been in the consulting-business (public sector). We are still busy as a publisher (Willem) and with community organisation and writing (Dorine). We spend a lot of our free time on our beloved culture (classical music, opera, theater, contemperary-, modern- and classical artmuseums but also good movies, literature).
We prefer travelling to (bigger) cities, we love f.i. Rome, Venice, Paris, New York City and Berlin, but also other cities in Italy or somewhere else in Europe are attractive to us.
We have a son and daughter-in-law, they have a family. We are very happy with our two granddaughters (16 and 13 years)! We are experienced home-exchangers, (through Homelink, Home-exchange and others) have done more than 30 swaps during the last 15 years.

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Ref:GOLD
We (very experienced home-swappers, non smokers/no pets/no kids) live in a lovely comfortable, ground floor apartment with garden, 6 rooms: dinner-+, sitting-+, masterbed-room, 1 study, 1 closetroom, guestroom, + kitchen + shower + wifi, completely renovated in 2010. Neighbourhood: safe, pleasant and quiet, elegant 1920 architecture neighbourhood, 10 min walk to citycentre (Van Goghmuseum, Stedelijk Museum, Rijksmuseum, Concertbuilding), many shops and restaurants around the corner. Our street however is very quiet.
N.B. I am allergic for cats.
We prefer longer exchanges (3-4 weeks or more) in Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Roma, Napoli, or other destinations in Europe: big(ger) cities or at sea in Italy, France.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
We are living in the centre of Amsterdam, in an elegant and lively neighbourhood, part of the Museum-district. The buildings are built ca. 1920. Our street is very quiet and safe, around the corner are the shops, cafes, restaurants, museums etc. Also the public transport is very nearby: 4 trams, buslines and a metro line connect our neighbourhood with the rest of the city.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
At home (or on request we send this by mail) we have a list with all the restaurants, shops and other activities in our neighbourhood. Our neighbourhood is very lively, although we are living in a very quiet street. The shops, supermarkets, cafes and restaurants are at walking distance, just around the corner. There is also a 6-days street market, 15 minutes walk from our home.
At a distance of 10 minutes walk we have very high standard cultural institutions: The Concertbuilding, The Rijksmuseum, The Stedelijk Museum (for contemporary and modern art) and the famous Van Gogh Museum.
