    Description

    I am working mom, lacking time for social life. I used to travel a lot and still do whenever possible. I have a spacious modern place and a chearful kind preschool age son. I need more exchange with people to be uptodate. I plan a non-profit sustainability project which takes me additional time. All this is leading to a benefitial exchange. My son likes to speak English and can learn you German. I can learn you German culture also. I love international cooking a lot. The room you can stay in, has a balcony and a big new bed sofa. I have further big mattress if needed. The apartment has lots of light due to roof windows which can be opened for fresh air. I have a car and can drop you regularly. A bicycle will be available too. Nearby are lakes for swimming, cycling routes and lots of nature. For urban experience, once a while I can give lifts to Berlin.
