About Our Family
We are a midleaged couple loving to travel abroad.
All our exchanges (in Sweden, Netherland, France, US, India, Marrakesh or Hanoi were great experiences with the chance to meet nice people. We always try to make our guests feel at home as good embassadors of our country.

Somos una pareja siempre dispuestos a viajar y deseosos de aprender las costumbres locales. Hemos hecho ya muchos intercambios con intervac y siempre han sido estupendos. Nos gusta que nuestros huéspedes se sientan en casa.
Lifestyle
Nuestra casa permite unas vacaciones de descanso, disfrutando del ocio en la piscina durante los meses veraniegos y con noches de terraza, pero también es un destino cultural inmejorable en otoño e invierno con visitas artisticas a las joyas del plateresco que la ciudad alberga. Es también un buen lugar para aquellos que disfruten del senderismo y la vida natural en rutas en los Arribes o la sierra de Francia. Y por supuesto hay muchos platos que probar en la tradicional gastronomia castellana. Los aficionados a la ornitologia tendrán en invierno una visita inolvidable en Las lagunas de Villafafila a poco más de una hora de la casa o aun mas cerca en el Azud de Riolobos. Nuestra casa está en una zona inmejorable para planear una escapada a Portugal.
Vous pourrez vivre chez nous des inoubliables journées de soleil et repos au jardin, a la piscine et la nuit, à la terrasse. Mais il faut faire aussi la visite culturelle car la ville est pleine de tresors, a l´Université, les eglises et la Grand place. Si vous aimez les randonnées, la Sierra de Francia y los Arribes del Duero vont vous permettre des beau promenades. Et biensur, il ne faut pas oublier de gouter la cuisine castellane dans des petits resto au plein air ou las tapas dans les gastrobars. L'hiver offre une randonnée inoubliable por les passionnés de l'ornithologue a las Lagunas de Villafafila et el Azud de Riolobo.
