I am retired and like traveling as much as possible. I mostly travel alone, but sometimes am joined by a friend or family member. I am planning an Eastern Canada adventure beginning in May 2024. I am open to other locations/exchanges in August or September, possibly Ireland or the UK.

Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
*"ACTIVELY LOOKING FOR SWAPS --APRIL-DECEMBER 2024 1-3 month stays (ANY temperate climate with a car exchange or extremely good public transit) **
* As always watching government restrictions, but my house is available for exchanges with other fully vaccinated people. I am also available for pet care (ex-animal health technician). ** I have been exchanging since 2009. I love traveling and all the wonderful people I have met through Homelink. I will treat your home like I do my own. Newly renovated home.(Nov 2022). I can trade at the same time or not, almost anytime except January-March.
My home is set up for comfort and convenience. It is professionally maintained and totally equipped. The kitchen is well stocked with spices, staples and modern appliances. All you need to bring is your bathing suit and flips/thongs!
Sarasota is so much fun to visit! There is a wide variety of things to do, shopping is close by (outlet malls and upscale boutiques), nature walks through Park Preserves or along State Beaches, golf (many public and private courses), theater, museums, white sand beaches, plus deep sea or shore fishing.
