We are an Australian-Canadian travel-loving and active family of four who love living in our hometown of Echuca, which is 200km north of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. We love bike riding in the forest and around town.
We are only seeking exchanges in Australia at the present time.
When overseas travel is once again permitted, we are seeking two different year long house exchanges: (a) in Canada, so our children can appreciate their Canadian heritage; and (b) in France, or a French speaking country (other than Canada), so our children can attend school and learn French. We are flexible with our dates and we are keen to connect with anyone who may be interested in either exchange. David is fluent in French.
We love our house, garden and pets and we will love your house, garden and any pets!

Beschrijving van onze buurt en omgeving
We live in a quiet residential neighbourhood, located only 1.5 kilometres from the main shopping district. We are friends with all of our neighbours and they are all lovely people who are happy to help out if ever needed.
Echuca (population 15 000) boasts the facilities of a much larger town due the frequent influx of tourists seeking the warm Mediterranean climate and to enjoy the many activities on the mighty Murray River. Moama (population 5600) is our twin town located across the Murray River in New South Wales.
There are seven primary schools and four high schools within Echuca and Moama. There is a university in Bendigo.
We live less than 1 kilometre from the Murray River with easy access walking or riding through the Banyule State Forest. There are hundreds of mountain bike and walking tracks through the forest. We frequently see kangaroos, and many Australian birds.
Echuca is a flat town easy to cycle around. We have frequent bus and train connections to the larger cities of Bendigo, 88 kilometres away and Melbourne, 200 kilometres away. There are also connections to Melbourne Airport. There are also flights to Sydney from Bendigo Airport.
Echuca has 7 medical clinics and a physician led hospital. The Echuca Regional hospital only 2.5 kilometres from our house. https://www.erh.org.au/
Echuca also has its own airport for medical and private flights.

Wat we graag willen of wat juist niet...
We love our house, garden and pets and we will love your house, garden and pets and expect you to love ours too. For longer exchanges we can organise someone to help with the garden if required.
We have two cats, who are allowed outside during the day, and locked in the outdoor room at night, and a border collie dog who is allowed in the outdoor room during the day (but not the house) and who sleeps outside at night. Our dog loves regular walks, or she runs alongside us as we ride through the Banyule Forest. Our animals have all grown up with small children.
