Deinze, Bélgica

Hi, we're Dirk (65y-retired) and Jenny (61y-supplier quality engineer micro-electronics, but also recently retired).
We already made 40 succesfull exchanges in the past years (1995-2007 and 2014-2023) and are open for any nice proposal to exchange homes.

We live in a large modern villa with all comfort and a nice garden of 1200m2 that is located in the East-Flanders/Lys region.
Our house has 3 double bedrooms and a single bedroom, so place for 7 persons.
WiFi is free, and we have a Chromecast connected at our TV.
We can also exchange our car Opel Zafira Tourer and have 4 nice bikes (2 normal bikes + 2 electric ones).
You can smoke outside our house but not inside.
In our region there are many hiking/biking and boating possibilities.

First of all have a look at this very nice website about what you can see in the Belgium-Flanders region :
