We are a family of 3 that likes exploring new places, especially when it involves checking out cuisines.
Aine is a consultant in advocacy and communications work and Grant is a public servant - Edwin our 7 year old keeps himself busy with lego, books, drawing and puzzles. We enjoy reading, cooking, eating out, walking, live music and generally being out and about! We have Henry a very low maintenance 7 year old cat too, who mostly stays outdoors.
We've done a few exchanges, Queensland, Northern NSW, Berlin and New Caledonia - all very different and all wonderful experiences.
Looking for exchanges for Dec/Jan over Christmas and January, it'll be domestic right? And largely NSW.
(But we are usually open to offers for all over Australia and elsewhere - who knows where we could end up!

About Our Home
Our home is a renovated 3 bedroom semi, with polished floorboards throughout. 1 bedroom has a queen bed, 2nd has a double and the 3rd has a bunk bed set up for children (though adults could sleep there too).
Rest of the house is a lounge room, dining room, seperate toilet and bathroom and the kitchen. Kitchen has gas cook top and a dishwasher. We have wi fi throughout the house.
We have a small yard, which is shaded for part of the day, nice for eating out or reading. Grant likes gardening so there are lots of succulents, a passion fruit vine and other greenery. It is fenced so safe for children.
About the Area
The inner west of Sydney is great for those who want to have a base for exploring Sydney and live the city life for a while.
