We are Maura and David and we travel extensively. I am a high school teacher and David is a sales merchandiser. We live in Dublin and built our new holiday home in Galway and love to chill out in the beautiful countryside of Galway. We travel during June, July or August each year. We are open to non-simultaneous exchanges for our Galway home - but our Dublin residence would be a simultaneous exchange. We love everywhere - and for 2012 we are open to offers for July or August. We totally rely on public transport when abroad as we don't like to drive other than in Ireland. We are strictly non-smokers and non-drinkers and have no pets. We consider ourselves house-proud so our houses are in pristine condition and we will look after other people's residence exactly as we do our own. We prefer two travellers but three would be considered also. We would love to hear from you. Thank you for your interest. Maura and David Butler.
