Frau Bosscha hatte im Februar 2025 mit uns Kontakt aufgebnommen. Wir haben uns dann auf einen Tausch im Oktober 2025 verständigt. Am Tag der Anreise haben wir Frau Bosscha in Hoorn getroffen und sie hat uns Ihre Wohnung gezeigt. Sie ist dann am nächsten Tag mit einer Freundin zu unserem Haus gefahren. Die Kommunikation war sehr freundlich und angenehm. Die Wohnung war sehr gemütlich eingerichtet. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Von Hoorn aus konnten wir den Norden der Niederlande bereisen. Wir waren unter anderem in Egmond, Bergen, im Zuiderzeemuseum, Volenda und Marken besucht. Es war für uns ein angenehmer Aufenthalt. Wir können die Region und Wil Bosscha als Tauschpartnerin sehr empfehlen.
alles klopte.
