About Our Family
Somos dos personas (matrimonio alemán). Durante los meses de verano, desde abril hasta finales de octubre, trabajamos en turismo y no podemos viajar. Sin embargo, nuestro apartamento en Menorca está libre todo el año para intercambios no simultáneos. Intercambios directos solo los podemos realizar de noviembre a marzo.
Nos gusta conocer grandes ciudades, otras islas o regiones con mucho patrimonio cultural. No nos interesan las urbanizaciones de playa.
We are two persons (german couple). During summer season we work in tourism (from April to the end of October), in these months we are not able to travel. But our apartment in Minorca is free for non simultaneous exchanges all year long. Direct exchanges are only possible from November to March. We like to discover big cities, other islands and regions with a lot of interesting historial sights. We are not interested in beach resorts.
Lifestyle
Estamos jubilados pero todavía trabajamos algunos días (sobre todo durante la temperada turística entre mayo y octubre). Nos encanta vivir en Menorca. Es un lugar muy natural pero lleno de cultura. Al mismo tiempo nos gusta viajar varias veces al año sobre todo a ciudades grandes y medianas (Paris, Roma, Florencia), otras islas (Ibiza, Sicilia, Canarias) y regiones con gran potencial cultural (Côte d'Azur, Toscana). Nos gusta mucho la arquitectura, el arte y la historia. Podemos hacer intercambios directos y non simultáneos.
We are retired but we still work some days (specially during the touristic season between may and october). We love to live in Minorca. It is a very natural place but full of culture. At the same time we like travelling several times each year. We are specially interested in big and middle size cities (Paris, Rom, Florence), other islands (Ibiza, Sicily, Canary Islands) and regions with big cultural values (French Cote d'Azur, Tuscany). We love architecture, art and history. We are able to do direct and non simultanous exchanges.
