“Nous venons de passer un super séjour de 2 semaines chez Annie et Simon après avoir fait leur connaissance dans notre maison la veille! Un couple adorable et chaleureux avec lequel nous avons passé une excellente soirée et avec qui nous aurions adoré rester quelques jours! Un grand merci à David, ami de nos hôtes qui est venu trés gentillement nous faire découvrir le quartier et ses commodités, nous expliquer le fonctionnement de la voiture et répondre à nos questions. Des instructions très détaillées dans un «Guide et manuel de la maison» soigneusement préparé a rendu notre arrivée et la vie dans la maison très facile. Beaucoup de suggestions sur les endroits à découvrir. Leur maison est joliment meublée et décorée de meubles et d'objets de style Art Déco. C'est une maison agréable, propre et confortable donnant sur un merveilleux jardin superbement mis en valeur par sa composition et la variété de ses plantatations! quand le temps nous l'a permis nous avons pu prendre nos repas sur la terrasse avec le chant des oiseaux qui peuplent les jardins. 2 vélos nous ont permis de faire quelques belles ballades sur les bords de la Tamise et à Richmond Park. Le centre de Londres et toutes ses attractions sont très faciles d'accés grâce au métro dont la station se trouve à 10 minutes à pied de la maison. Merci à Annie et Simon pour ce bel échange et nous espèrons avoir une autre occasion de vous retrouver. Une excellente adresse que nous recommandons chaleureusement! Pascale & J-Jacques.”

Who we are
-
We are both slowing down after busy careers working and travelling in the television industry. Simon is a Cinematographer and Annie a freelance producer/director. We enjoy cinema, restaurants, walking, cycling, swimming and photography. We are now in a position to further pursue our love of travel with time to be more flexible as to destinations and schedule. We have one son, aged 30, who will occasionally join us on our travels.
As a family, we had an extremely successful home exchange in California some 20 years ago and relished the freedom, facilities and flexibility that such an arrangement offers. With work slowing down, in the last 5 years we have enjoyed a further 8 very successful exchanges to the USA, Canada , Amsterdam, France and Spain. We would like to explore some more European cities (Paris, Copenhagen, Berlin) but in the main we love to be warm so will always welcome offers from warmer climes.
