“We stayed in Wiebe and Gerda's apartment, situated in a quiet residential area of Vienna, for 8 days during August 2017 and found it spacious, luxurious and very well equipped with all the facilities needed to make our stay comfortable. The apartment is very centrally located with the underground train station (and well known night market) about 100m away, including the central train station and central Vienna within easy distance. Wiebe and Gerda are wonderful hosts and as courtesy left us some foodstuffs which they did not all want replaced. They also offered us a bottle of wine from their selection! We found our communications per email easy and relaxed. Wiebe and Gerda's hospitality hugely contributed to our experience of Vienna and we can highly recommend an exchange with them.”

As a host (1)More about us
-
My wife Gerda and I are in our late sixties, and Dutch nationals. We resettled some 10 years ago from Washington DC to Vienna when I retired as international civil servant. We love art and music and regularly visit the numerous excellent museums and many musical venues in this historical place where so many famous people have lived. After having lived all over the world, we travel a lot in cultural rich Europe. We have done more than 20 successful home-exchanges since 2009 with Lisbon, Tel Aviv, Thessaloniki, Lazio/Italy, Normandy, Brittany, Rhône-Drôme, Nimes, Cote d'Azur, Ireland, San Francisco, San Diego, Amsterdam, Rome, Barcelona, Athens/Santorini, London & Paris, South Africa.

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
Our apartment is located in a quiet street, close to the famous Naschmarkt and 100m from the metrostation or bus stop. The old city, museums and main shopping areas are within walking distance (10 min.). The 6th district, dominated by classical & Biedermeier style houses, is very lively and popular with the Viennese, having lots of restaurants, cafes & bars. The opera houses and concert halls are nearby and 10 min with the metro to Schonbrunn palace. With proximity to the Vienna Woods one can quickly escape the city buzz and enjoy the quiet hilly countryside. Interesting daytrips can be made to the picturesque Wachau Valley along the Danube, the Viennese beaches at Neusiedlersee, the mountains of Schneeberg and Rax, the vineyards of Burgenland, or the beautiful lakes of Salzkammergut. Salzburg, Prague and Budapest are a few hours away by train. Mercer elected Vienna now for seven years in a row as the best city to live worldwide.
