We are recently retired, active, young at heart couple feeling late 40-50's. We have adult children who do not live at home. We are outdoorsy, keen on golf, kayaking, snow skiing, bike riding, camping and bush walking. Geoff also does scuba-diving and paragliding.
If we are not outdoors we pursue our hobbies and projects. These are wide ranging and include learning French and photography, building furniture, reading, listening to music (jazz, reggae and Spanish guitar are our favorites for now) and socialising with family and friends.
We are both university educated professional (Engineering, IT and Business Management). We are non-smokers, responsible, reliable, tidy, careful and environmentally conscious couple (we will turn the light off, conserve water and recycle waste). We are well travelled, which helped us to become tolerant, open-minded, non-judgmental type of folks. We would like to travel extensively for at least next several years and use house swaps to do spending a reasonable amount of time in a few places.

Descrizione del vicinato e dei paraggi
Manly is a small bayside suburb of Brisbane. It is located on a foreshore of the picturesque Morton Bay. It is a 5 minute walk from our place to the train to Brisbane City and South Bank (Brisbane leading tourist hot spot). The trip takes about 35 minutes.if you choose to drive it will take you about 25 minutes in off peak times.
We are ideally placed to access the Gateway Freeway (M1) to make day trips to the Gold Coast and its many attractions (50 minutes by car one way) and the Sunshine Coast (90 minutes by car one way). The Gold Coast will host the Commonwealth Game in April 2018.
You can also catch a ferry (10 minutes drive to the ferry terminal) to explore Moreton Island or to scuba dive the local wrecks. There are also boats departing from Manly Harbour to the local diving spots.
