We are NEW to home exchange and just joined based on a recent lengthy and enthusiastic discussion we had with another couple who have been members for over 5 years.
We are an active retired couple who enjoy downhill skiing, golf, bicycling and sightseeing/exploring new countries. Sylvie is a retired realtor and nurse who has 2 married daughters (1 in Canberra Aus and 1 in Toronto Can) and 3 grandchildren. Allen is a retired life long military officer who has 1 son and 3 daughters (in Kingston, Toronto and Ottawa Can). Sylvie enjoys pottery and painting when not travelling.
So far, we have traveled to many sunny and cultural destinations.
We are excited to home exchange as a new way of travelling and visiting family in all parts of the world. We are very easy going, very respectful and clean! Thank you for contributing to our newly found way to explore and travel!
