I am a single woman but I often travel with my adult daughter/s or 1 or 2 friends. I have recently reached retirement age. One of my daughters lives in Bath UK with her family so I am keen to spend time there on a regular basis. I am also open to any other interesting suggestions. At times I meet up with my English daughter's family in a different location such as Italy.

Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
My home is a comfortable villa on the scenic Central Coast of NSW. The home has 2 double bedrooms and another bed in an office room (this room doesn't have private access). There is a pleasant garden where you can enjoy a BBQ in the great outdoors.
I would like to spend some time in the UK or anywhere in Europe especially during July and Aug holidays as my daughter's family live in Bath.It is also my dream holiday to meet my daughter and maybe other members of her family (she has a teenage daughter and son) somewhere between Australia and the UK,

Neighbourhood
Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
The Central Coast of NSW is a very popular area for beach holidays and restful weekends. It's beside the Pacific Ocean, lakes, beautiful National Parks and day trips to Sydney and the Hunter Valley. It is about 1 1/2 hours drive or train trip north of Sydney. It is a very picturesque area with many activities from swimming, surfing, scuba diving, boating, bush walking and fishing to relaxing by the sea, perhaps spotting whales or dolphins in the right season. There are various tourist outings such as The Australian Reptile Park, a ferry trip to Palm Beach (the location for filming Home and Away) and visiting the beautiful Hawkesbury River. While within easy distance for day trips to the large city of Sydney it is a small and peaceful local community. The climate is suitable for a holiday at any time of the year although winter would be cold for swimming without wetsuits.
