Nice city home close to town and nature
Quiet Kitsilano neighbourhood, yet close to shopping, restaurants and the beach with convenient access to city, mountains and ocean. Area has many parks and green spaces, bike paths, and transit.
Our house is a townhouse in a 4-plex with updated kitchen, bathrooms, and a small outdoor living space. We are two blocks from several shopping streets and only a 20 minute walk to English Bay and the beaches, as well as Granville Island. Downtown Vancouver is a short bike or bus ride away, or you can walk over the bridge. Whistler Mountain, site of 2010 Olympics is less than 2 hours by car and Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast are a quick ferry away. Excellent hiking, walking, water sports, beaches, all minutes away.
We have 2 bedrooms upstairs, both with queen sized beds. There is also a full bathroom on this level. The main level has kitchen, dining and living area and one half bathroom. Our home is suitable for one or two couples or a family with one child. We have a cat so our home is not suitable if allergies are a problem. Our cat and small garden that will need care but it's possible to leave her for a few days.

Texto de apresentação da família
Our family consists of just the two of us now, Rejean and Francine. Our 2 adult children live close by, both are married and we have two grandchildren. We also have a cat. When we exchange the cat stays in the house. We are both retired, Rejean was a teacher of French to adults and Francine worked in Information Technology as a Project Manager. We love to travel and do home exchanges around the world. We find it a great way to get to know the people and the area. We like to visit places and experience great food, wine and culture.
Estilo de vida
My husband and I like to experience new places, food, and wine. We are avid golfers and prefer active holidays. We have done several exchanges through another company and have had very positive experiences. We are retired and are flexible but prefer to vacation during the late spring or early fall season.
Francine is an avid swimmer and can be found in the pool 3-4 times per week. Rejean plays hockey regularly. We also love to ski, golf, hike and cycle. It is a good thing we like to keep active because we also love food and wine. We both like to cook and dine out.
