We retired several years ago from careers in quality assurance, teaching, and non-profit management. We have used our retirement to pursue travel interests, primarily through HomeLink exchanges. Though we have liked every exchange greatly, we have particularly enjoyed the several hospitality exchanges that have afforded us the opportunity to get to know some wonderful exchange partners. We enjoy a wide variety of interests, with particular emphasis on history and the arts.

Beschreibung unseres Tauschangebotes
Our house is located in a quiet residential neighbourhood located just outside Richmond, Virginia, about a 2-hour drive or train trip from Washington. It was constructed in 2002, is very comfortable, with up-to-date appliances. For a couple, everything needed is on the ground floor. For larger groups, additional sleeping accommodations are located upstairs. There is a large-screen HD television, a good high fidelity sound system, and high speed WiFi. The house is equipped with a backup electrical generator that starts automatically in the event of an electrical power failure. In summer, much of our time (meals, games, socializing) is spent in the gazebo in our woodland garden. At cooler times of the year, the sauna is an attractive feature. Washington, DC, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and Atlantic Ocean beaches are all within a 2-hour drive.

Beschreibung unserer Nachbarschaft und Gegend
Our neighbourhood, Bexley West, is located just a few minutes drive from downtown Richmond, Virginia. It is a hilly, wooded community situated along two small lakes. Properties are large and nicely landscaped. The homes were constructed from the mid-1980's. The streets are ideal for walking, as are the hiking trails in Rockwood Park, just a 5-minute drive away. There is a lovely public golf course just a two-minute drive away. Nearby is Henricus, the second community founded by the British in North America, now a historical park. Downtown Richmond is only a 15-minute drive away, and it has a great many historical sites and cultural attractions (museums, one of America's top ten art galleries, symphony, live theaters, etc.).

Was wir mögen und was nicht… Dies sind unsere Wünsche und Hausregeln.
Our home is not "child-proofed" so we allow only older, responsible children. We request that there be no smoking. Otherwise, we ask only that a fellow exchanger treat our property with the same respect that we will give theirs.
