We are once again a twosome, having enjoyed our time close to home to raise a family. Now it's time to explore the world together...or so we thought before COVID! We love to travel to new destinations and come home with memories that sustain us until the next adventure. We absolutely love Scotland and England. This is where both our ancestors are from. We have so many places to see in Great Britain, we would welcome all requests anywhere in these countries once COVID is over. In the meantime, we would love to see Canada, this beautiful country we call home. Come explore Ontario; go to the beach, ski on hills at Blue Mountain, or just relax in our heated, salt-water pool.

Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Do you love beautiful sunsets at the beach? Or sunny days downhill skiing? In Wasaga Beach, you can do either! Our large, 3 bedroom bungalow in Wasaga Beach is perfect in summer or winter. The ski hills of Blue Mountain overlook the beaches of Georgian Bay. Wasaga Beach is home to the world's longest fresh water beach. Visit http://www.ontarioparks.com/park/wasagabeach for more information on this historic provincial park.
If you enjoy hot summer days on the beach, July and August are perfect vacation times for you. The beach is a short 3 minute drive from our home. After a day on the beach, come back to the house for a relaxing hot-tub and campfire in the backyard. Or use the free high speed internet or cable TV on those hot rainy nights.
If you enjoy skiing, we are only 30 minutes away from Blue Mountain Ski Resort, a four season resort for families.
