Vancouver Island, Victoria BC. Great Central Location!

In quiet Saanich (Gorge Tillicum area) yet 4.5 km away (about a 7 min drive) from popular touristic downtown (Inner Harbor, Parliament, Empress Hotel, Royal BC Museum and Imax, whale watching, Beacon Hill Park, Dallas rd, numerous beaches, etc). Our house is also 0.5 km away from main junction of famous Galloping Goose (beautiful and historic city-nature trails network 60 km long perfect for discovering Victoria and surrounding communities on bike or on foot). Swan Lake-Christmas Hill Nature Sanctuary is a short 15 minute walk from home. World Famous Butchard Gardens is a mere 20 min. drive. Enjoy whale watching, charter sailboat, great diving, etc

Finally, two major shopping centers are a 10 minute walk away (the new Uptown complex features upscale boutiques, central plaza and an outdoor feel whereas the well established Tillicum Mall features great movie theater and typical indoor North American shopping mall.

We know Vancouver Island really well and we will be happy to help you plan your stay here. We know the little gems off the beaten path and can help you customize your vacation depending on your preferences. Our Island has something for everyone (great winter ski (Mt Washington) and great surf (Tofino).

Our home is on a quiet street with friendly neighbors. Our immediate neighbors are helpful and trustworthy. It is well maintained, updated, clean and practical. We have a great landscaped backyard with a two level deck (one under a gazebo during summer, one under the sun) and a wood play structure (monkey bars, swings, climbing wall and slide) in case you have kids or simply need the exercise! Adult and children bikes available. Guitars, piano and keyboard for your enjoyment! We also have a canoe; great lakes close by.

Please get in touch with us for extra pics and to learn more about our location and ourselves.

Destination wanted:

We would love to visit a Spanish speaking country but we are open to all offers!

Additional information:

We are looking for more than just a house exchange: we hope to meet great people in the process and discover a more authentic way to discover your part of the world. We certainly want to offer this on our end.

Car exchange possible. We have a well maintained, reliable station wagon.

We are teachers and are therefore restricted in our availability to Spring Break in March, Summer months (last week of June to end of August) and Christmas Holiday (usually last two weeks of Dec and first week of January) looking for an exchange in July or August 2012 for 2 to 4 weeks but we are open to all offers that fits or availability in years to come.

Looking for long term exchange starting summer of 2014 (3 to 9 months?)
