Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Victoria/Vancouver Island is a sought after travel destination. Spacious, modern townhouse with ocean glimpses is located in a pretty, treed neighborhood a 15 minute drive from downtown Victoria and the Inner Harbor. Vancouver BC, the Gulf Islands, Port Angeles and Seattle Washington are easily reached by ferries. Summers in Victoria, the garden city, are delightful!

Neighbourhood
Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Victoria has a wonderful array of cultural and outdoor attractions. Aldersmith is only 15 minutes from downtown Victoria and less than that from lakeside hiking trails. Five minute walk for groceries, bank, liquor store and more. A bike path is a 3 minute ride away. Friendly neighbours and peaceful, treed surroundings. Music lovers do well here--Victoria Symphony, live opera in the winter, a jazz club and lots of "one offs". And 3 regularly producing theatre companies. Good places to eat but none walkable distance.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
I often travel with my friend, Loretta Foley, also a Homelink member. We can offer a choice of her downtown condo or my suburban townhouse. Check both listings and decide which suits you best. If your travel time does not coincide with ours, we are happy to offer non simultaneous exchanges.
