Charmig gammal bondgård mitt i levande landsbygd
Huset är från 1800-talet och vårat fritidsboende vår, sommar och höst. Det finns badrum med toalett och dusch och förutom att vi eldar i öppna spisen och kaminen i köket så finns det element för kyliga dagar. Det tar tio minuter med bil till närmaste mataffär och knappt 20 minuter till Dalälven där vi badar. Det finns även en skogssjö tio minuter bort med bryggor, eldstad och omklädningsrum.
Området är en levande landsbygd med jordbruk och det finns gott om bär och svamp i skogarna. För oss är det här ett underbart ställe att varva ner på och bara vara! Det tar 1 timme med bil till Arlanda och 1,5 timme till Stockholm. Det går även att ta sig med kollektivtrafik men det bästa är att ha bil när man är här så att man kan åka till mataffären, loppisar och bad etc.

About Our Family
Hello Intervac-friends!
We are a Swedish family living in the capital of Sweden - Stockholm.
We are two adults, both journalists with a great interest in travel, food and lifestyle but also history, languages and art. The three daughters (15, 18 and 20 years old) are also interested in traveling and likes trying new foods and languages.
We live in an apartment with 6 rooms (4 bedrooms, livingroom + a room with a fireplace) and the apartment is within walking distance from the city centre of Stockholm. It's on the 5th floor and pretty charming, situated in an area with lots of shops, restaurants and cultural activities. Nearby you also find buses leading out of the city centre if you prefer going to the forest or the Stockholmian archipelago - wonderful all year round.
We also have a secondary home that is less then 2 hours north of Stockholm (by car) which you are free to visit if you like. It's not modern but rather renovated and charming.
We speak Swedish (!), English and French (in a rather touristy way) and are interested in planning for house swaps both in the long term and the short term. Feel free to give us proposals.
We will also help you finding out the best places so that your stay in Stockholm will be the best for you and your family and if you are interested in food and restaurants we will be able to give you really good suggestions - we love that kind of stuff! And if you are interested in craft beer - we will fill up the fridge with local goodies - we love craft beer culture!
Feel free to ask anything - we are ready to answer!
And yes, we will take very good care of your home - that's for sure!
From Joel, Marlene, Elvira, Sibylla and Dagmar!
Lifestyle
We are a pretty normal family, working hard and doing lots of familial activities; we all love to go the cinemas, have dinner in restaurants and travelling to new places. And soccer! We also love reading and writing which is good since both parents are journalists.....
