We have found our exchange for the sumer 2024!
Our house is built 1972 and totally renovated in 2007.
In our garden is an outsite hot tub that we use all year round. We enjoy soaking in the hot tub after dark and watching the stars.
We have two dog and pet care is optional for you but we would still love to take care of your pets.
We recommend having a car visiting Iceland, expecially if you want to see some places outside of the city (Golden circel for example).
