House in 13235, Sweden
We are going to move and will shortly post some pictures of our new home. However, this summer we have decided to make an exchange with a spanish family.
We live in a duplex apartment with a small garden near the City Center. From the apartment it´s just a short walk to the metro and buses that´ll take you pretty much everywhere in Stockholm. In the garden you have the possibility to have a nice barbeque, relax in the sun or play with your children. The apartment and patio have a fantastic panorama view over Stockholm. It´s a nice quiet area and with 2 minutes walk you´ll reach a 90 store shopping mall, newly opened.
The apartment (115 sqm) have 1 master bedroom and 1 bedroom with a comfortable sofa bed for 2 persons. The 3rd bedroom is the childrens bedroom with a child bed and a possibility to use a baby cot. The kitchen is well equipted with a dishwasher and all the accessories you usally find in a kitchen. In the living room you´ll find the TV and a playstation (computer games) also useable as a DVD. We have a laptop with wireless Internet access for use. Of course you can connect your own laptop if you prefer that. There are two bathrooms, one with a bathtub, the other with washing machine and dryer. As a neighbour to our apartment, you´ll find a relax room with a sauna, jacuzzi and showers - free of charge.

Stockholm is a beautiful city! Our home is just outside the city centre. By bus or car you'll reach the inner city within 20 minutes.

About Our Family
This is our family: Martin, Jenny, Sigge, 8 years old, and Bill, 4 years old.
This far we have made five exchanges, three with spanish families, once with a family from Denmark and once with a french family.
We've lived in our house since 2014 and enjoy it a lot. It's well situated, close to nature and just a short bus ride to the city centre.
You are very welcome to contact us if you have any questions.
