Ida Sofie

Family of seven, Ida and Torjus (1984) Lars and Martine (2011), Josefine (2013) and Samson and Jakob (2015). Ida is an attorney and Torjus is a master-builder. We have three homes to choose (or combine) for exchange. I did a home exchange in 2016 via intervac, and it was a success. However, life happende, covid happende and every year I wanted to try again, But always felt like I couldn’t. But HEY why Not. Our homes Are very normal homes, we have what you would need and the locations aren’t to bad. Our primary exchange Home is a rowhouse in Bergen - less than 10 minutts by bus to the city center. Bergen is a Hanseatic city, and world famous UNESCO heritage Bryggen is only a few minutts away. Bergen is also known as gateway to the fjords, and there Are daily trips to Flåm and Nærøyfjorden and several other beautiful places. For personal guiding in Norwegian, Portogues or English I highly recommend my dear friend Merete - www.saintguideservices.no she is a wonderful and knowlegable High school teacher with a dedication for travel. Our cabin is in Barlindbotn, Eikefjord if you Are more of a nature and solitude searching person. More pictures to come. Please Ask us anything!
