November, december or january is unfortunately not possible, because of our work. We prefer at least week and prefer longer swaps because we like to explore the place. 2-4 weeks would be great! |

Cosy Appartment with balcony and two bedrooms in Rovaniemi Lapland
Small but comfy familyhome with two bedrooms, sauna and balcony in third floor (with elevator). Very peaceful environment. You do not need car to be here, but we have a car for swap if you like to move around in Lapland.
Rovaniemi is the biggest city in Lapland full of things to do and places to explore.

Our Neighbourhood
Nearest Airport: Rovaniemi - 20km
Rovaniemi is Santa Claus and the capital of Finnish Lapland. We have lots of winter and summer activities. Ounasvaara to ski, Ounasjoki to swim and SUP, climbing both in and out, hiking in forest and in hills, restaurants, amusementspark for kids, mountainbiking (we have mountainbikes), shopping, reindeers, huskies and all that. You will love it here. Still the city is safe and peaceful, people are friendly and englishspeaking (tourism is very important here).
From our flat you can walk to city center or go by bike almost everywhere. With mountainbike its nice even in the winter with the snow. We have snow untill end of april and after spring the midnight sun shines all day. In the autumn nature has spectacular colors of red, yellow and orange.

About Our Family
We are family of four living in Rovaniemi. Jonna, Marko and Jonnas two sons Salomon 15 and Iisak 13. We love to travel and
I, Jonna, work as a manager in development in middle sized media corporation. I can work anywhere and like to also travel alone so even small apartments can suit us.
We have also a cat. Our friendly cat Jouko will not travel but will stay to the house if you can give him food and water and let him in or out if he wants to. Jouko survive perfectly few days on his own too, if you do longer trips. If you dont want to take care of the cat, its not a problem. Cat can also stay elsewhere.
Lifestyle
We love to travel and to have new experiences and learn from other cultures and places. For us is important to teach our children to be open to the world, new places and experiences. Our home is comfy, neat and in nice location in Rovaniemi. We are neat and will take good care about your home. :)
