Dinner, Drinks, Cinema, Event let us know we will be there..
We spent 1 week in Giulia, Nicola & Timo's house. We had a wonderful time visiting Bologna. We both agree that it is such an underrated city. We had AMAZING food as well.
The apartment itself is nice. It's easy to go to the city just taking the bus and the area is perfect if you just want to go for a run.
We are looking forward to welcoming them in our home in Lyon !
Wow what a brilliant location you live in with the bus right round the corner and Alizee really enjoyed the pleasant conversations: open minded people who are interested in travel. Nicolas made a great effort speaking English and also speaks a little French so communicating wasn’t so hard. And then there was Timo the super well-behaved dog who came to snuggle at night. Thank you Giulia and Nicolas and we hope to see you somewhere in the world so we can welcome you into our home!
Staying in Giulia's home was an excellent experience. The home has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and Giulia was kind enough to provide us with wine and even a frozen lasagna. Definitely above and beyond!
The apartment is in a nice residential neighborhood about 20-30 minutes walking from the city center. We didn't have any trouble finding parking around the apartment, but it is paid.
Bologna itself is a charming city and a great central location for exploring Florence, Tuscan countryside, Venice, the Apennine Mountains, and of course, Bologna. You could even make it to Cinque Terre in a day trip if you were very ambitious.
Bologna itself was one of our unexpected favorites even though it's not often thought of as a top destination in Italy. We especially enjoyed the food, the architecture, and the local charm.
Giulia, Nicola & Timo were not able to come visit us after all due too a car issue. Hope we can welcome them very soon !
Guilia came in July to kindly pet-sit our cat Pierre. She was a perfect guest, everything went smoothly, and Pierre seemed quite content when we got home. Communication was perfect before and during the exchange, and everything was exactly as we left it when we got back! Thanks Guilia for being our guest. We would highly recommend Guilia for other exchangers.
Giulia and her partner were exemplary guests. They left everything clean and tidy. They took good care of our cat as well and he seemed very content upon our return, like he didn't even miss us! Giulia was communicative throughout and we had no trouble coordinating arrivals etc. Wonderful guests and people!
Unfortunately, it was not possible for us to leave for Lyon for personal reasons. Maha and her girlfriend were lovely and told us they would be happy to host us at another time
Maha and her fiancée were two perfect hosts. The house was left perfectly tidy and they were very kind both in communication with us and with the friend who took care of the delivery of the keys.
Hanna and Cèdric's house is really beautiful and cozy, situated in a great location.
It was a pleasure to take care of Pierre who is a very nice cat. Communication was great and when I needed help they were always ready. A wonderful experience!
Alizee is great. Having her here was really really fun. A girl so smart and so polite. She will be welcome any time.
Such kind words , thank you Giulia!
Meg's house is really beautiful, with everything you need, with a wonderful terrace and a really nice and cuddly cat.
The metro is 10 minutes away but if you want to move on foot it is still convenient to get to the center in about thirty minutes.
The neighborhood is very quiet, we really enjoyed it.
Meg and her partner were kind and thoughtful in giving us all the relevant information. it was really a wonderful holiday.
