“Ann and Drew were wonderful exchanges partners who were easy to communicate with and fun to know. We had a most enjoyable 2 week stay in their lovely, well equipped and comfortable home in a quiet residential part of Christchurch. There are many interesting day trips easily accessible from their home. The city centre is newly developing with many new and interesting initiatives underway. We were able to experience the many places that were unavailable on our last visit which was just after the February 2011 earthquake. We highly recommend Ann and Drew and their home as an exchange destination and exchange partners.”

1 Compte rendu
En savoir plus sur nous
-
We, Drew and Ann are early retirees. Drew worked in the banking industry for most of his working life. Ann also worked in banking and then as a credit controller.
We had a vineyard and homestay for several years which we really enjoyed. The vineyard was a change from working indoors and the homestay allowed us to meet many interesting people from all over the world.
We both enjoy travelling and have visited many parts of the world and still have lots of places to visit on our wish list.
We are both keen golfers, enjoy dining out, walking, reading, solving cryptic crosswords, gardening, and going to the movies.
Drew also plays outdoor bowls, and enjoys going fishing.
Ann has an interest in photography and plays bridge.
We have 3 adult children and 5 lovely grandchildren.
We are able to do non-simultaneous swaps as we are able to visit family in other parts of NZ at any time.
We have done several house swaps which have been very successful. We would take great care of any prospective house swaps home.

The city centre offers the Art Gallery, the Museum, more shops and a variety of restaurants and bars. We have many new facilities including the library which is well worth a visit.
