We are a retired couple, both previously social workers, who have enjoyed very successful exchanges in Kendal, GB, Prague, Czech Rep, Ledesma, Spain and Sevilla, Spain
We are looking for an exchange for 2019, either spring (May-June) or fall (September-October). We would consider an exchange during the summer in the more northerly parts of Europe. As grandparents we have toys appropriate for younger children as well as a carseat and car booster seat, if needed.
Our neighbourhood has abundant shopping and eating opportunities, provides easy access to downtown (1/2 hour walk, quick bus ride), is treed, and is very close to the Rideau Canal with its walking and bicycle paths.

Lo qué nos gusta y lo qué no... Estas son nuestras preferencias y normas domésticas.
This apartment is in a triplex with friendly upstairs neighbours. We are all reasonably quiet and respectful of each other and assume any guests will also be this way.
