We are family of four with a sense of adventure! We have travelled extensively throughout Europe as well as countries such as Kenya, Mongolia, Australia, Mexico, Japan, China and more!
We believe that the greatest gift for our children is to experience other cultures and countries. We limit the amount of consumerism in our lives with a desire to get out into nature, visit a museum or see a play.
Our children Gabriel (14) and Annika (11) are well-behaved and considerate children. They are curious and happy to immerse themselves into new experiences. John and I have busy careers and travel gives us a chance to recharge. We volunteer in our communities - school, charities, coaching sports, etc. We are very involved in our children's activities - rowing, soccer, singing, theatre, and gymnastics. We love to entertain whether with another family or 30+ people for a potluck dinner!

Beschreibung unseres Tauschangebotes
Our home is situated in a beautiful residential setting with similar heritage homes. The house is extensively renovated while still preserving the charm of its coved ceilings, oak floors and wood burning fireplace. the family room and kitchen spans the back of the house and is our central gathering place. We enjoy cooking and entertaining hence a 5 burner gas stove and double stove were a must. A Miele dishwasher helps with the clean up! The children can play or watch a movie while meals are prepared. From there you walk out to a cute backyard with a stone patio enveloped by a grape vine xx perfect for al fresco dining. A comfortable seating area is a perfect spot from which to watch your pizza bake in the wood-fired oven or use the BBQ. The white twinkly lights have played host to many late evenings enjoyed with friends and a few bottles of wine.
Time to retreat for a good nights sleep. You will find 3 bedrooms upstairs. Two children’s bedrooms – one for a 14 year old boy and the other an 11 year old girl – both with twin beds. The boy’s room has a trundle bed if required. The master bedroom is very spacious with a 4 poster bed reading chaise and desk
There is a bathroom with a bathtub/shower on the main floor. The upstairs has a powder room and an ensuite to the Master Bedroom with marble shower.
We also have a vacation home on Salt Spring Island. Consult the following link for dates when it is available: https://www.vrbo.com/360988

Beschreibung unserer Nachbarschaft und Gegend
One of the best neighbourhood's in Vancouver - Dunbar! Quiet, family oriented area of the city with mature trees and many parks. Great neighbourhood with many amenities in walking distance. There is a full service grocery store about 5 minutes from the house. Continue walking past a drugstore, coffee shops, sushi restaurants, library, movie theatre and 2 pubs. This family oriented neighbourhood has two wonderful playgrounds set in large parks – one even has a water park! Just a block away is the entrance to Pacific Spirit Park: with over 2000+ acres it has an endless circuit of running, walking and cycling trails. Wanting to spend time on our beaches - you need only drive 5 minutes to access a wonderful shoreline walk. Beachcombing, picnicking, skim boarding, swimming, and kayaking are only some of the different activities on a warm summer day. We are a 15-20 minute drive or 30 minutes bus ride to downtown Vancouver. Similarly, only 20 minutes from the airport.
Welcome to our very vibrant and diverse city! There are many activities, concerts and festivals going on in our city.

Was wir mögen und was nicht… Dies sind unsere Wünsche und Hausregeln.
We have special memories and stories attached to many things in our home. We thrust that you would treat it with care.
We look forward to coming home to a tidy and clean house. We do have the house cleaned every two weeks and this could be arranged for you as well (payment could be made directly). We have garden that would require watering occasionally. Garbage and recycling is strongly encouraged by the municipal government. We will provide details for you to appropriately deal with the garbage, recycling and compost. For international calls, we would have to make arrangements in advance.
Should you be interested in using the outdoor pizza oven, we ask that you make great care in using it as the summer months are very dry and there is always concern about forest fires (there is 2000 acres forest just a block from the house!)
