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.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
Ballard is a vibrant, hip & very popular neighborhood, w/an attractive town center boasting many shops, restaurants & interesting sites. It is a friendly & very walkable part of Seattle w/good access to bike paths & public transportation. Many things to keep children entertained, both in Ballard & throughout the city.
Just down the hill from our house is Golden Gardens Park which has a wonderful beach, open fields &play areas for children. Two blks east of our house is the Nordic Heritage Museum which highlights the Scandinavian heritage of our neighborhood with a small park, swing sets & play area. Also by short walk are the Ballard Locks, with beautiful arboretum, a ship canal & salmon ladder where in summer months you can view salmon by the hundreds as they make their way to fresh water and the spawning grounds nearby. Ballard hosts a large farmers mkt every Sunday in its historic town center. Many other wonderful parks & attractions are very close by.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
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.
