Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Large 3 bedroom townhouse with 1.5 baths spread on 2 levels plus a sunken living and kitchen area. We have a small back patio and sitting area to enjoy the sun, a glass of iced tea, and a good book in the outdoor space. There is lots of natural light and minimal carpeting (only on the stairs). The house was recently renovated (in 2013) and painted. The kitchen cabinets were replaced last year (and my pictures will need to be updated). We live in a co-operative which means we know our neighbours and there is minimal turn over, leading to a friendly and welcoming environment.
There is also a small playground for young children at the end of our co-op that the neighbourhood children use regularly.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
We live in the heart of East Van and one of the most sought after neighbourhoods – Mount Pleasant. Where else in the city would you find a park renamed to ‘Dude Chilling Park’? You can walk to the local cafes, restaurants, and breweries, and experience a multitude of ethnic foods and culture. Vancouver is known as the city where you can ski the local mountains in the morning and sail on the Pacific Ocean in the afternoon. We are in a central location that is accessible to everywhere. It is walking distance to transit and a short drive to downtown Vancouver (<15minutes). During the summer, enjoy the farmers market with local produce and baked goods.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
The historic Chinatown is nearby which is a must see for any tourist and great for shopping…fresh veggies, knick knacks, or the newest fusion restaurant. Commercial Drive, known as ‘The Drive’ has retained it’s Little Italy vibe. You can’t venture there without visiting Fratelli’s bakery and enjoying a cup of java. However, there is an eclectic collection of restaurants, boutiques, and plenty of live music and bars. We are also a hop, skip, and a jump to Olympic Village and Granville Island, other great areas for day visits. Vancouver is pro-cycling and there are cycling paths throughout the city with Mobi bike rentals dispersed throughout. The list could go on and on and on. Just ask and I can specify my response.
