We are James, who is a journalist, Susan, a full-time home-maker, and our daughters Emily (22) and Rosie (17). We've enjoyed successful home exchanges with Homelink to Germany, Austria, France and Spain, and are looking to house swap again, after a number of years away from exchanging. This year (2020) we would like to visit Canada, Vancouver in particular - although we would be happy to consider other locations in Canada.

Koduvahetuseks pakutava kodu kirjeldus
Edinburgh is Scotland's Capital, and is a World Heritage Site with a wealth of historic and cultural visit opportunities. If you have specific areas of interest, please ask and I will be happy to find information from you.
2 bedroom, main door apartment in Victorian tenement building with small garden spaces to the front and rear. Our sleeping accommodation is as follows: spacious double bedroom with large double; single bedroom, plus single bed in box-room (no window), which is currently set up as a bedroom for our older daughter when she is home from university.
The apartment is approximately 1.5 miles from the centre of town, which is easily accessed by public transport or on foot. We are very close to the Union Canal and towpath, which makes for pleasant walking / easy cycling. We have two adult bikes available for use.
Unfortunately, because of allergies we are only able to exchange with pet-free homes.

Ümbruskonna kirjeldus
We live in a residential, suburban part of Edinburgh, close to the Union Canal which neighbours a small park with a playground for younger children. We are close to bus routes to the city centre and tourist attractions, and the journey takes just under 20 minutes by bus and about 40 minutes on foot. There are several cafes nearby, and basic provisions can be bought locally. There are several supermarkets within 10 - 15 minutes walk. The airport bus service stop is within walking distance.

Meie soovitused, kuhu minna ja mida teha ajal, kui viibite meie kodus
Edinburgh is a World Heritage Site, with many places of interest. Besides attractions like the Castle, Holyrood Palace, the Scott Monument, art galleries and museums, the city is attractive and relatively compact which makes for pleasant strolling. We are fortunate to have a lot of green space; from Princes Street Gardens in the Centre of town, to the Royal Botanic Gardens to the north of the centre, and Arthur's Seat in the vast Holyrood Park (right beside Holyrood Palace). Edinburgh has all the amenities of a city, with sports facilities and entertainment within easy reach.
