We are sixties but young at heart. We are experienced home exchangers and we are interested in exchanging short (e.g. a weekend) but also longer periods (e.g. a month). Our house is half an hour's drive from the North Sea, Aalter is a nice little town between Genth and Bruges.

Place.
Our house is located in the green part of the city of Aalter, on a fairly large site, with horses in the backyard.
This city is located between Genth and Brussels, in the north of Belgium.
In the photos you can see a small forest (2 hectares) that we created in 1996 in the backyard, it has a BBQ in the middle.
There is plenty of parking in front of our house.
It is a very quiet and green area.
Detail
We need to know if you are bringing an animal before we approve the exchange.
Transport
You can use our car if we exchange yours.
There is a very good and fast connection by train (Ghent/Bruges 12m/Brussels 55m/Airport 1h10m).
The departure from Brussels Airport to our house is less than 1h30, as the direct train leaves from the airport (level -1)
The station is in the center of the village and has a large free parking lot just 4 miles from our house.
