House in Karlstad, Sweden
Welcome to the province of sagas and the long twilight of summer evenings! We can offer you our large and comfortable family home in a quiet neighborhood that is a short distance from anything you can desire. The forests are full of blueberries, the fishing is great and there are miles of car-free, paved bike trails. Downtown is just a few minutes away and is full of shops, restaurants, museums and art galleries, and there is a rich selection of cultural entertainment. We have an IKEA! Public transportation is very good, with air, coach, rail and sea connections to all the other capitals of Scandinavia.
We have a summer cabin in the countryside 5 minutes away from Karlstad where we relax, swim and go canoeing. Our four children are grown and have left home, though one or two might be tempted to join us for the next exchange. They have all been with us on other exchanges and are seasoned Intervac enthusiasts. We have one cat, easily cared for. We look forward to each new season for exchanges and daydream about where our travels might take us this year and anticipate welcoming new families to our home.
