Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our house, nothing is too far away1 minute by car for beach and shops, and 10 minute walk. We have a regional shopping centre, Southland, which is 10 mins by car. Our local beach is peaceful, uncrowded, natural, with lots of exploring of rockpools to be done. a little further along the same beach is a very safe area for children. Our part of the bay is a marine reserve, so snorkelling and diving is very accessable.
Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
It is important that our house is clean and tidy when we return. I would ask that you respect our neighbours by keeping loud music etc to a minimum. Our garden is precious to us, so please be careful of it.
