Apartment in the heart of Bruges

Apartement 105 m² (first floor - elevator) in centre of medieval Bruges, with unique view on the Groenerei-canal (www.visitbruges.be). Fish market, Burg and Market Square nearby. Livingroom 5mx5m, kitchen with all appliances, bathroom, master bedroom with double bed, second bedroom (bureau) with single bed. Terrace in the back on the south.
Apart from the attractiveness of Bruges itself, visits to the coast (Ostend 25 km), Ghent (50 km, 30 min by train), Antwerp and Brussels (100 km, 1h by train) are obvious. Amsterdam (200 km) and Paris (250 km) are nearby also. Railway station 15 min walk away, with good direct connections to Ghent, Antwerp, Brussels and Ostend, but use of our car is no problem.

Texto de apresentação da família

We are a Intervac-member since 1986, when we did our first exchange with people from Portland, Oregon. Since then we did some 15 swaps.
I'm Rik, retired since 09/01/2016, former journalist/editor-in-chief and director of a museum, still writing columns and books and giving speeches. Hilde, studied tourism, works in a day care center for children and is crazy about cooking and about her hometown Bruges.
We have two daughters, Maud and Andrea, both living in Brussels.
In 2014, we moved to Bruges, where Hilde originates from en where we lived already from 1980 tot 1991.

Nous avons rencontré Hilde et Rik quelques jours avant notre échange car nous étions déjà en Belgique pour un autre échange. Ce fut un moment fort sympathique et plein d'humour, et qui nous a permis d'échanger nos clefs de maisons respectives. Leur bel appartement se situe le long d'un canal dans la partie historique de Bruges, avec une vue exceptionnelle ! Ils ont été très accueillants et serviables, tout comme leur voisine. Bruges ( et ses alentours) est une ville aux ressources très riches (architecture, musées, paysages,...). Merci à Rik et Hilde !

Nous avons rencontré nos partenaires dans les Pyrénées et ce fut un moment convivial.
Arrivés chez eux à Bruges, nous avons eu la confirmation que cet échange serait un succès et il le fut.
Merci à eux pour nous avoir si bien reçus.
