Large family home in a green and quiet suburb of Bordeaux
We're looking for a one year exchange with Sweden, please contact us!
Large traditional home of 1900 sqft renewed by us during the last five years with a large garden (13000 Sqft = 1200m2). We have 4 large bedrooms and a fifth that we use to work but can be used as a friend bedroom.
We are very serious people, and you will find our home to be very clean and organized. We will treat your home with respect and we expect you to reciprocate.
We're all musicians in the family so there are many instruments and CD available.
We also have a second home in Arrens Marsous in the Pyrénées that can be part of the exchange depending on the dates.

Our Neighbourhood
Nearest Airport: Bordeaux - 15 min
Our area is very quiet, we're along a public parc and 500m from town center for everyday shopping.
There are pathways for hiking and cycling around the house, along the local little river and among the vineyards.
In Gradignan you can find many public parcs one with animals and an aquarium.
Bordeaux is only a few kms away (15mn by car or public transportation) is a wonderful city, modernized and cleaned, classified by UNESCO. You can enjoy walks near the river, and visit great museum such as "Cap sciences" with great exhibits for kids and the new "Cité du vin".
Arcachon and its "bassin" , and the Atlantic ocean are only 45mn away, you can sail, surf, swim...

About Our Family
We're a family of five, Benoit and I are physics teachers, Laura is 18 years old, Clément is 14 years old and Rémi is 13 years old.
We like nature and hiking in our favorites mountains the Pyrénées, we also like spending time on the atlantic coast, with its large beaches.
During year we're all playing music, benoit is saxophone player, I'm trombonist, Laura is flutist and Clément does sport (Tennis, athletes), Rémi is playing bass guitar! We play Jazz and we also play traditionnal music.
We'd like to exchange with a family with children, so that we can exchange rooms, toys...
We're also looking for a linguistic exchange for our sons 1 or 3 months in another country (they would like to go to school if it's possible!), and of course we'll welcome your child in our house before or after that.
