We have renewed our membership after a break so our listing says no previous exchanges however, we have had four successful exchanges.
Although we're teachers by trade, Geoff is a part-time musician and has recently begun teaching me to play the guitar. We are very excited about visiting Ireland and are very much looking forward to visiting establishments where traditional Irish music is playing. You can see some of Geoff's original music on YouTube where he has posted about six songs he's performed with our daughter, Ellie. Here is a link to one of their songs, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4egAFWQ0NtU or just look up Geoff & Ellie. We would love you to share our music with your friends. ;-)

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Pottsville Beach is a quiet little seaside village nestled between the famous Gold Coast to the north, Byron Bay to the south, world heritage listed national parks to the west and the majestic Pacific Ocean only minutes to the east.
Our home is in a quiet cul-de-sac which backs onto a reserve and is very private. A small creek runs at the rear of the property which you can explore on our triple sit-on-top kayak. There are many pristine beaches and rivers within 5 to 20 minutes drive suitable for recreational paddling, fishing, snorkelling and surfing.
Should you wish to meet our family and friends, they would be happy to show you around, but of course, they would respect your privacy.
We look forward to meeting our future house swap friends.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
From our house it is a two minute drive, five minute bike ride and twenty minute walk into town where there are a number of cafes and restaurants to choose from. Mexican, Japanese, Thai, Chinese, Indian and Pizza are available in town. Ride your bike down for breakfast, lunch or just coffee and cake. We have a surprising variety of cuisine options for such a small town.
The Gold Coast is an easy 30 minute drive and is home to beautiful beaches, rivers, shopping and a bit further north are a number of theme parks, including Sea World, Movie World, Dream World and Wet'n'Wild.
30 minutes to the south lies the township of Byron Bay with its white-washed lighthouse standing at the top of Cape Byron, Australia's most easterly point. Byron Bay's beaches are very safe and known around the world for their natural beauty.
Mount Warning and Lamington National Park offers a range of hiking trails with magnificent views. We have a guide titled Byron Trails for you to use whilst here. You can see a sample of the book if you follow this link: https://byrontrails.com/about/see-a-sample/
Cyclists of all standards enjoy our region as it offers a variety of challenges. For a relaxing ride, bicycle paths follow the coastline and it is never too far to find a local coffee shop.
