  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We live in the area called Westerwald, approx. 60 km east of Bonn. The Rhine Valley with the cities of Cologne and Bonn with their entire cultural life are about 1 hour (good train connection) from here. Here you can enjoy the beautiful landscape of the Westerwald and the Sieg-valley, go on excursions, visit old mines.
  We are a family in which music determines a large part of life, especially folk music from all over Europe, historical instruments. We also have a piano for open use.
