Nuestra casa

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio

We are experienced home exchangers following our swaps in Switzerland, Canada, the US, UK, Norway and The Netherlands. Our exchange families and ours have all had great experiences. We really enjoy our travels and love exchanging, learning about different countries and cultures and meeting their people.

We live in a spacious home right on the oceanfront. Our home has ocean views across Slade Bay with a lawn leading down to the water. The home has been built for the tropical aspect and to make the best of the ocean views. The large outdoor BBQ / entertainment area leads onto the ocean side pool with spectacular views from pool side or the upstairs bedrooms and verandah.

All living areas and bedrooms are air conditioned with three bedrooms located on the upstairs level (main with en-suite) and one on the lower floor (with en-suite).

With the world opened up, we are travelling again. Tim has just started a new job at the end of 2023 so we will probably not travel overseas again until December 2024 / January 2025 for a month when Sandra will have our long Summer School break and Tim will have annual leave. For non-simultaneous exchanges before then, we also have a three bedroom holiday home up in the rainforest town of Eungella, right next to the Eungella national Park with lots of cool creekm swimming holes, rainforest hikes and the world famous Platypus's in Broken River.
