Spacious Home in America's Heartland
We would love to make our first exchange. We've been on Intervac for years but are now truly diving in. We even had an exchange student from Denmark live with us for a year, they found us on Intervac!
Three bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home located in historic Meridian Kessler neighborhood in Indianapolis, Indiana. On a bustling street filled with kids, dogs, and friendly neighbors.

Our Neighbourhood
Nearest Airport: Indianapolis Airport - 21.9 miles (30 minutes)
We live in historic Meridian Kessler, a neighborhood with families of all ages. It's very quiet, and people are often walking their dogs, exercising, and children are occasionally out riding their bikes. We love our neighborhood because it is close to SO MUCH in our city! Within 30 minutes of us are several award-winning restaurants, beautiful parks, museums, trails, historic neighborhoods, and more. Indianapolis is a great place to raise children. Just north of us is Carmel, a community that is nationally known for being one of the most active family communities in America.

About Our Family
My husband and I were both born in Indiana, both love to travel, spend time with friends, cook for friends and try new restaurants! We have two sons, Theodore and Benjamin. We have two small dogs, but we always kennel them when we go out of town. We have a lot of family in Indianapolis who would be very happy to meet you and share a meal!
Although we have not yet had an Intervac home exchange, we did host an exchange student for 10 months who found us through Intervac, this was one of the best experiences ever! She is in several of the photos. Although they couldn't complete a review on this website because we did not exchange homes, we would be pleased to connect you so that you could talk with them about their daughters experience with us. She has only been gone two months and I (Marian) have already been to visit them in Denmark and she is coming to visit in a few months. We are exited for more possible connections on Intervac.
