We had a wonderful time in Rauno's apartment. It was very easy to get into Turku and to explore other parts of Finland. Rauno & Leena were charming and helpful and left our house in immaculate condition.
A Wonderfull neat and clean apartment surrounded by birch trees near a lake and on biking distance from Turku. A very quiet place and country with so much space to move about. We could even use the car! Traveling by bus is also very easy! The hosts are very nice and clear in their communication. Max and Inge

I and my wife are special teachers ( 67-years ). Both of us now retired.
When our children (3) were young, we made many home exchanges by Intervac in Europe. Nice chances all.
Our children are nowadays living on their own. We have four lovely grandchildren.
