My wife Mimi and I moved to Stratford from a farm north of Toronto 10 years ago. She passed away about 2 years ago and I am beginning to travel more. I joined Home Link because I prefer to stay in the comfort of a home and community when I travel - mostly to Australia (where my son lives) and Europe. My newly renovated Ontario Cottage is just a 5 minute walk from downtown, which boasts 3 world-class theatres, wonderful restaurants, and unique shopping.
