We are hoping to stay at your place between December 17 and January 15, taking intermittent short overnight trips out. We are open to discuss the dates, however.

You are welcome to arrive to our home earlier or leave later; we will help you get situated here.

What we looking for:
We are looking for a warm, centrally located place, near major city
attractions or within easy reach of them, with kitchen and refrigerator, microwave or stove, and shower.
We will be sightseeing most of the day, and really only need the place to sleep, eat breakfast, have tea, and take showers. We don't plan on cooking, but occasionally we like to store and re-heat take-out food.
