Helsinki, Finland


Member since
2010The member has not specified any exchange dates
Flat in Helsinki or Tuusula, Finland
We are open for any offers.
Non simultaneous offers for Spain and other warm countries are welcome for the winter. We could travel during winter months and you could come to our house in the summer.
For short periods we are happy to exchange cars, but it is ok for us to drive to European countries, for example Denmark, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria or Spain.
We used to live ten kilometers to the north from the center of Helsinki in a row of four apartments. The area is quiet and green. The main entrance faces the street. In the back we have a lovely courtyard and terrace facing south, where you can enjoy the sun from morning to evening. The sun rises very early and sets very late in June and July.
There is a frequent bus service to the center. The nearest bus stop is less than 200 meters from our front door with four to eight buses every hour. There are more bus lines 0,6 km away both to the center and other directions.
The kitchen is large and modern, all the rooms have plenty of light. There are two toilets and one shower. You can use the private sauna whenever you wish.
In the summer 2022 we moved from Helsinki to Tuusula, which is 18 kilometers north of our apartment in Helsinki. We can still use the Helsinki apartment for an exchange, but the Tuusula apartment is available as well. At the moment (the beginning of June) we are still in the process of the removal, so I do not have pictures of our new apartment, but I will update the description of our home as soon as possible.
En francais:
Notre appartement est situé dans l´environnement calme à 10 km (25minutes) de la centre Helsinki. L'arrêt de bus n'est pas loin, à peu prés de 200 m.
Il y a trois chambres et une salle de bain avec douche et sauna privée, et une terrasse au Sud.
Nous sommes une famille de deux personnes: Juha est un professeur de la musique dans le première degree scolaire et Aila est une conseillère d´orientation à une lycée pour adultes. Notres enfants sont adultes et mariés. Nous avons sept petit-enfants.
