We are a family of four, Eirik is Norwegian, Nicky is from Malta and we have two little vikings - Sebastian (5) and Jacob (2). We met on our Masters course in the UK in 2004 and lived and worked in London after that until 2013, when we decided to try out life in the North of Europe. We have set up a lovely home just a short distance from Norway's capital, Oslo.

We are passionate about interiors, art, food and travel. We have travelled extensively both as a couple and as a family. We love to take our little ones on adventures and we have made travel a big part of our family life. Our last big adventure was spending 2 months in Australia in 2016/17. Staying in homes when we travel is special, we think, as you get an insight into what life can really be like in that place and get a more local experience. We have also realised that its a lot more comfortable and convenient with 2 young children!

We usually rent via airbnb or other channels but we have now decided to give house swapping a try as we would also love to share our home and all that beautiful Oslo and Norway have to offer.

With our house, comes also the possibility to use a cabin near the mountains 3.5 hours from Oslo.
