Renewal Date: 19/Aug/2017
John and I are both retired, myself recently. Our four children are in their 20's so we're very interested now in traveling, exploring various parts of the world, and including educational and socially interesting experiences in our travels. John worked in IT and I taught ESL for many years; both of us have also included music, both instrumental and vocal, in our lives and want to continue this in retirement.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Deep Cove has shops, cafes and restaurants in walking distance. There are also many lovely hiking and mountain biking trails. Beyond that, Vancouver - only 20 minutes drive from here - has a wide range of amenities and types of entertainment. In winter, there are 3 local mountains for skiing, snowboarding and hiking (20-30 minutes drive) and Whistler is 1 1/2 hours away.
