We are a recently retired couple in our late 50s from the UK. Looking for a 1/3 month trip to Melbourne, Australia to visit our son who has recently moved there. Our eldest son (early 30s) and his girlfriend might also join us for 2 weeks if it can be arranged. We are non smokers. We will look after your home as if it were our own. We have home exchanged before with Homelink to Belgium, Holland, USA and Canada very successfully but our last one was around 18 years ago. Now we are retired we would love to start again.
