I love living in my home surrounded by greenery with lovely valley views toward the sea. My lounge opens onto the garden with a barbeque and another outside dining table for 6. My home is filled with art and there is a baby grand piano. I can walk to the beach. In fact there are four beaches within 10 mins including restaurants, cafes and a cinema.
It is beautiful and warm in the summer and cosy in the winter with the gas fireplace. Downstairs there is also a small second lounge and a separate laundry area with washing machine and dryer. The three bedrooms are upstairs. The master bedroom with ensuite and the 2nd large bedroom share a balcony and have lovely views down through the valley to a peep of the sea. The third bedroom/office is small with a single bed. The atmosphere is peaceful and calming.

I am a professional counselor and writer with two books published. I also paint when I can. My daughter is going to Paris this year and so I would like to visit her and offer her a holiday experience somewhere. I also hope to write while I am away.
At the moment I am looking for home exchanges in Rome, Florence, Bali and Spain.
