My husband (46) is an art teacher at a local college and I (46) am a primary school teacher.
We both love sports, nature, culture (especially art museums) and travelling.
We have two wonderful children: Our daughter (11) and our son (9) love to play outside, do sports, meet friends, cook/bake and play cello/horn.
We all enjoy having friends around us and we love to travel.
We had a successful exchange with a dutch family this summer and are looking forward to our next one:-)
