    Description

    We're a family with four kids offering you a place to learn about the The Netherlands in a small town near the national forest Veluwe, with large yard with our own chickens, in exchange for helping around the house.

    We live in a lovely town surrounded by forests and close to the Veluwe, one of the most beautiful natural areas in the Netherlands. You will have plenty of opportunities to explore the area by bicycle or on foot, visit nearby towns and experience the relaxed Dutch way of life.

    Our municipality has around 35,000 inhabitants. We have one larger cultural center, library and theater that offers various hands on classes and Dutch lessons if you are interested.
