Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We always welcome weekend getaways in the Pacific Northwest. Heidi is also an accomplished pet sitter and is available almost anytime and willing to go almost anywhere.
A cozy and intimate home centrally located on a beautiful tree lined street in the heart of trendy Mt. Pleasant, recently voted one of the coolest neighbourhoods in the world. Numerous cafes, ethnic restaurants, and boutiques are within five minutes walk. There is great walking with many parks nearby, including the famous Queen Elizabeth Park, 15 mins walk to inner harbour, 25 mins walk to centre. We are less than 10 mins walk from the subway station that serves the airport and the city centre. Seattle, USA is 2 hours drive south and world class Whistler, home of the 2010 Winter Olympics, is 1.5 hours north.

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We are most definitely a no smoking house. We believe in common exchange of respect, we will leave your home as we found it and hope you do the same with ours. Heidi's mom, who is a lovely woman, lives in an apartment on the lower floor, she is a very independent and quiet woman, she will not impact your stay at all.
