Our Home For Exchange

Brisbane is the capital city in the state of Queensland. It is a modern river city with lots of cultural attractions and festivals. Our home is a 3 bedroom/+office Queenslander with a separate wing (extra bedroom, study, bathroom) overlooking an old mango tree in a suburban backyard. Trees attract possums, flying foxes, bush turkeys, kookaburras and other birds. Our home is in an excellent location (7 km to Brisbane City centre, 14 Minutes by train)with lots of amenities within walking distance-restaurants, shops, medical services, bus, excellent train service to city, airport, Gold Coast. Day trips to the sea and mountains, beautiful Moreton Bay Islands, Steve Irwin's Zoo, Sunshine Coast, local farmers markets, sporting events. Walk the World heritage listed Boondall Wetlands. A very convenient location. We are looking for a stay for 2 weeks in September 2023. Would like to be in London or close to Caerleon, Newport, Bristol, Cardiff or in Birmingham.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Our home is close to the city centre of Brisbane. From our local railway station (200 metre walk) we can travel to the Gold Coast, to the city or to the International Brisbane airport. We love Moreton Bay- in a day we can visit Redcliffe, Sandgate and Moreton, Stradbroke and Coochie Mudlo Islands. Di loves sport so we go to Suncorp Stadium for Rugby league, Union and Soccer. Torquil loves the arts so within 20 minutes we are at the Gallery of Modern Art, QPAC or at Food festivals at Southbank. Our photo is of us on our anniversary last May at Mt Cootha-a great vantage point above Brisbane. Brisbane is sub tropical.
