Description

Philippe (retired) and Elaine (marine biologist) are looking for a house in any part of the world. We already have many succesfull exchanges made.

We offer a charming, comfortable and typical house with 5 bedrooms (4 double, 1 single) on the St-Lawrence shore with direct access to the beach. We live close to Rimouski (pop. 40 000), in the province of Quebec, in a quiet place right on the bicycle route. The house is fully equiped.

We can offer a Toyota Matrix 2010, bicycles and camping equipment is also available.

We are non-smokers and have a dog that we can put in a pension. We are very respectful.
