We are an active retired couple in our 70s with management and teaching backgrounds. We have travelled quite a bit some years ago but not recently. We are not experienced in home exchange but another couple in our street have had exchanges over several years and have had great experiences so we thought we would give it a try. We wish to visit England and take in a canal trip in Europe in 2008. These canal trips operate from May to August so we are flexible within the April to September and we are flexible on the total period. It will depend on negotiations with our exchange party. We have golf clubs and bowls available if needed. Friendly neighbours and a daughter living 5 km away will be a helpful guide for our exchange party.
