We are a family of five new to the home sharing scene. We live in a great part of Vancouver and are keen to see some other gems of the world. Please don't be daunted by us having three teens. They are great kids, and will play a role in respecting your home and keeping it clean. We enjoy camping, the theatre, movies, biking, and exploring new areas.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Trout Lake in East Vancouver is family-friendly. There is a farmer's market down the road every Saturday, and we live right across from a large park with biking, a skating rink, community centre, tennis, and several playgrounds. The lake makes for a great environment. We are close to transit (from our door it would take about 15 minutes to get downtown), shopping, and restaurants. We love living here.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our house, it is about a 7 minute walk to the nearest supermarket, and just beyond that is Vancouver's famous Commercial Drive. Coffee shops and restaurants galore. We would be pleased to point out recommendations. Really for us, the park is our greatest source of pleasure. Our deck looks over Trout Lake, and reading/eating, socializing on our deck has brought a lot of satisfaction over the years we have lived here.

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We will leave you a neat and tidy home, and we hope it will be in the same condition upon our return. We promise we will do the same for your home. We have tenants below, so we ask that you respect their privacy and that noise be respectful after dark.
