Hello. Jo and Laurie here - both edging around the aged 60 bracket, recently married and have entered into the semi-retirement phase of their professional lives and are keen to undertake further travel experiences around Australia and other reaches of the world - with a particular interest in the United Kingdom and Europe. Pet care of Frankie our labradoodle is preferable but not essential.

We have spent 3 months in Maylands (Perth. WA) and we had an enjoyable time. Jo & Laurie's home is located overlooking the Swan River with only the native bushland between them and the water's edge, which is an asset as the bushland is part of a bird conservation area and great for bird watching. Laurie & Jo's home is totally set up for the 'outdoor elfresco entertaining' lifestyle and also great for indoor entertaining. We loved driving their Suzuki 2018 Outback 4WD and it was very easy to travel on public transport. We enjoyed looking after Frankie (the 'wonder dog') and Charlie Moon, their cat. Both were fun. We would recommend them for a great home exchange.

Hello, this was a great experience with a house situated on the beautiful swan river centrally located in Perth. Easy going pets and car swap arrangements were flawless. Can recommend wholeheartedly. Thanks again Laurie and Jo!!
