A very successful home exchange that originally began as a house-sitting arrangement but turned into a full home exchange. The rooftop flat is lovely and within walking distance of the U-Bahn, offering a direct connection to the city centre. Communication was smooth throughout, and we had the pleasure of meeting Tamara, Florian, and Isidor before their return. They are truly delightful people — as second-generation home exchangers, they know all the ins and outs of the process.
Jempi und Yolande haben immer sehr schnell geantwortet und sind uns in vielen Punkten sehr entgegen gekommen. Sowohl ihr Hausals auch die Wohnung am Meer.waren super vorbereitet, sodass wir uns gleich wohl gefühlt haben. Auch unsere Wohnung haben sie in einem sehr guten Zustand hinterlassen. Wir haben uns auch sehr gefreut, dass sie sich am Ende des Urlaubs nich einige Stunden Zeit genommen haben,.um uns zu treffen. Wir haben einen wunderbaren Nachmittag miteinander verbracht.
Francine and Andy are very nice people we met at the beginning of our exchange. Their house is in a quiet neighbourhood with friendly neighbours in Oakville, a town on Lake Ontario south of Toronto. A good base for visiting metropolitan Toronto and Niagara Falls. From there, we also took a 5-day trip to Montreal and Ottawa and Algonquin park, among others. A very active holiday. There were also provincial parks in the immediate surroundings, where we took beautiful walks. The house was certainly as described on the website, very stylish, clean and very comfortable. We thank Francine and Andy for the nice welcome and for hosting us and our friends.
We spent a very nice 10 days in Juan Carlos and Maria's holiday flat. The contact was friendly and efficient and the flat was in line with the info on the site and very compliant. The flat is within walking distance of the sea, with a wide range of beach bars. We also made use of the swimming pool. Nearby is a supermarket with a wide selection. Tor del Mar has a nice centre and is at the same time a good base for visiting the main cities in the area, such as Granada, Cordoba, Malaga, Ronda.... We hired a car to cover the distance from the airport and also to explore the surrounding area. It is a non-simultaneous exchange and we hope that our exchange partners will also enjoy their stay in our house.

We are Jempi and and Yolande de Cooman. We live in Sterrebeek, a small village about 10 km from Brussels.
Jempi is retired staff officer at the Royal Flemish Theatre in Brussels.. He is born in 1955. Yolande (°1959) is finance controller in an advertising agency in Brussels.
Together we are Intervac organisers for Belgium. Our experience in home exchanging goes back to 1985.
We are both very interested in culture. We like to read good books and enjoy a good restaurant. We enjoy as well the peace and quiet of nature surroundings as the liveliness of the city.
We have 3 children ( Tone, our son - our daughters Lore and Rein, married to Joost ) and 5 grandchildren ( Alex -Kika- Billie - Finne -Remi )
