Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
We live in a quiet tree-lined mature neighbourhood of quality homes. Our part of the street is a cul-de-sac with friendly neighbours and the entrance to a park just across the road. A stop for the city bus service is a 5 minute walk down the road. The access to the main roads out of Hamilton is very easy from our house and the GPS in our car makes it even easier.

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We have done 9 previous exchanges to Watford, Broadway, Farnham, Chingford and Banbury in the UK and also to Germany, Mexico, California and Brittany. We are open to considering offers from most places and are able to do non-simultaneous which means we can be pretty flexible in arranging exchanges. For a USA exchange we would like to go to somewhere in the eastern states.
