Summer 2012:
I am hoping to go to Found a place in New York.

Winter 2012/13:
New York, Buenos Aires, Berlin or Paris, who knows?

In general I am open to short stays in spring summer and longer ones (several months) in the winter.

Previous swaps:
So far I swapped two times to New York and Barcelona (summer breaks) once for x mass to Paris, once to rural France and twice to San Francisco (longer stays/work). Loving it!

I have a 110 m2 apartment in an historic building in the funkiest part of the Amsterdam canal district. You can't get more central.

The house has a typical Amsterdam layout with a front- and backhouse and a sunny patio in between. It contains a living room, modern spacious kitchen with Smeg appliances, 2 home office work spaces, a master bedroom and a large bathroom.

The house is ideal for a couple (with maybe a kid over the age of 8 or a tiny baby) who wants to have a homey place to stay in the center of Amsterdam.

Ideal for a holiday but also for gettting work done. There are 2 workspaces with computer equipment and fast (1.5 Mbps) wired and wireless ADSL service throughout the house (incl. patio).

I' ll provide you with a list of our favorite places to eat and things to do in the city. You'll find out where we get the freshest veggies, the best Thai and the most delicious organic food.

You will find yourself in the center of the hippest boutique shopping area of Amsterdam. And museums are either around the corner (Anne Frank House) or within easy reach of public transport. If you prefer modern art and design, our neighborhood is filled with shops selling designer furniture and clothing.

Being self-employed and working mainly online, I find my "Amsterdam office" every winter drifting away to warmer places.

So where next? I found out I can do my work from everywhere.

So if you have a relaxed sunny place and a fast Internet connection, what about a swap?

I am an independent web designer, have a website Weekendhotel.nl and write hotel guides.
