Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

SEEKING simultaneous exchanges: France, Scandinavia, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy , Croatia and Germany
I have an exchange in London for March and April 2025 and so I and looking for the continent after that. In 2024 I can consider anytime between March and the end of October for Europe.

Ideally, a stay of one to three weeks or even longer can be considered at each location. If you are planning to travel around as I am you may be keen on a shorter stay.
I answer all emails. And I am open to other suggestions of where I should visit.
Every corner brings a new adventure. I am also prepared to consider hospitality exchanges.

I know some people say they want to visit Australia for our summer as winter is too cold. Melbourne's winters are NOT like the cold in northern Europe. It is closer to a Mediterranean climate.

I have had replies saying they won't come to Australia because of the poisonous snakes and spiders. Apparently an average of two people die from snake bites each year while there have been no deaths from spiders since 1979. In comparison 1, 123 people died in road accidents in 2021!!!!!!!!!

For those who love good wines, fine foods, cultural and sporting events and magnificent scenery, or just a good relaxing place to visit then beautiful, cosmopolitan Melbourne is a hidden jewel - a must.
Close too to freeways leading to scenic places such as the Great Ocean Road, penguins at Phillip Island, wineries in the Yarra Valley, Wilson's Promontory, the historic goldfields, etc.

I am now an 'experienced' exchanger with about 40 exchanges completed.

Comfortable, well presented first floor (Ground then First floor) apartment in a very quiet but centrally located area. Re-carpeted in 2021 and new double recliner leather lounge
Very good access to public transport being 20 minutes to the city. Less than a five minute walk to tram and bus.
In the city centre, museums, galleries, theatres, tourist, cultural and sporting attractions and shopping facilities.
Modern bathroom and kitchen.
Car exchange available- 2016 automatic Toyota Corolla. 24 hour Broadband internet access. Washer/Dryer in the bathroom.
Currently the second bedroom is set up as the study.
A comfortable sofa bed (lounge with fold-out bed) is also provided in the study for a third person.
The 'central heating' is a reverse cycle heater/air conditioner.
The bathroom now has a walk-in shower, renovated in December 2018
