Flat in Lappeenranta, Finland
At the moment we are looking for an 1-2 weeks exchange in July 2025. We are open to all offers.
Interested in summer in Finland? Sunset at 11 pm? Sunrise at 3 am? (We do have blinds in bedrooms.)
The best thing about our home is the great lake Saimaa. The shoreline is 30 meters from the house. We have tens of kilometres of forest trails for biking or hiking starting from the doorstep.
It is a 138 m2 flat with a small garden and a big patio. 2 bedrooms, a large guestroom, 2 bathrooms and a sauna. The house is surrounded by a pine forest with wild blueberries, mushrooms and plenty of trails.
We have a double bed, a bunk bed, 3 adult size single beds. We can arrange for a travel cot for a toddler. Also available four adult size bicycles and two bikes for 10-13-year-olds.
SURROUNDINGS
Located by the lake between the cities of Imatra and Lappeenranta. A quiet place in the end of an peninsula, a short drive from town.
In the neighbourhood (1-2 km): a coffeeshop, a minimarket, a spa, an indoors waterpark, beaches, 3 restaurants, Angry Birds Activity Park for children, an outdoors activity park, riding, an 18-hole golf course etc. Forest trails, lakeside trails and good opportunities for outdoor activities. In the past our guests have enjoyed small local events and places "off the beaten track". We are happy to help you with finding good places to go to.
Imatra and Lappeenranta are small towns with many small sights and activities. The area is surrounded by lake Saimaa. You can reach Imatra in 10 minutes and Lappeenranta in 30 minutes by car. Car exchange is necessary.

Texto de presentación de su familia
Hello,
We are a family with two boys, now 10 and 11. Jussi is a math teacher, Anu works with cultural history projects, books and exhibitions. Both boys play football in the local club.
The summer is the best time for us to travel but we are open to other possibilities too. We have a long vacation around Christmas, so if you are interested in an snowy Christmas in candle light, be in touch.
We have had many great exchange experiences so far in Europe and in South America, simultaneous and nonsimultaneous, big cities and small villages. We enjoy outdoors, mountains, good food, coffee, arts, music, architecture and history, so we find things to enjoy almost anywhere.
