About Our Family
We had many good years of exchanging homes when the children were much younger and as they are grown and leading lives of their own we are continuing to exchange homes and still enjoy it very much.
We have now completed in the region of 19 exchanges over a 20 year period. We did take some years out when the children were at University and they would come home for summer holidays.
We enjoy travelling and seeing new countries and, at times, returning to revisit some countries again.

DE50926The house was very neat and clean. We found a lot of documents about the area. They gave us two coffee mugs as a welcome and as a gift. Colm and Jackie are very friendly and helped us in an exemplary manner when we had an accident.
