Hi, we are Roslyn and Michael both in our 50s and live in beautiful Jervis Bay NSW. Roslyn is a retired medical receptionist. Michael works in IT and can work remotely. We travel with two small well behaved well traveled dogs. In 2010 did three successful overseas house exchanges while traveling Europe. We would like to explore more of Australia.

Roslyn and Michael's home in Vincentia is perfectly positioned walking distance from many of the beautiful white sand beaches of Jervis Bay or you can drive just a little further and explore the amazing Boodaree National Park or walk / cycle the track 5km into Huskisson or 1.8km to local shops, cafes, restaurants. The house is immaculate and we enjoyed dinner on the lovely balcony where we could enjoy the local bird life. Roslyn provided everything and is very organized, good communicator. We would highly recommend an exchange to Vincentia.

Roslyn and Michael's house at Vincentia is in a great location. It is an easy walking distance to a number of white sand beaches on Jervis Bay. If it is windy you are able to find a sheltered beach. Great cycle and walkways along the bay. Woolworths, Coles and Aldi are all close. The house was very comfortable, fully equipped and clean with a sun soaked alfresco area at the rear of the property. We really enjoyed our stay in Vincentia.
