House in Borlänge, Dalarna, Sweden
We have found otur exchange for the summer of 2025.
Welcome to our house in Borlänge. We live in a small wooden house with a lot of bedrooms and a beautiful garden with apple treas and a big lawn where its possible to play games in summer and play with snow in winter time. We have 4 bedrooms, three with king size beds and one with a normal sized bed. We also have two extra beds which is easy to use so the house can hold four to eight people. If you are many its also possibly to let someone sleep on the sofa.
We hade two bathrooms one in the basement where there´s a shower, a washing machine and a dryer which you are free to use. On the upper floor there´s a bathroom with a bath tub - its one of the favourite things to do when you come home tired after a stressful day!
The kitchen has a dining room with 6 chairs and 4 more in the basement which is easy to bring to the table if you are more than 6 people.
Upstairs is a living room with sofas, piano, guitar and a TV. A nice place to gather in the evening.
We also have a cat called Malva and she has her own cat door and comes and goes as she likes. You will have to look after her during your stay. Give her food and change her water.
