Ron and Raewyn are both retired empty-nesters looking for some wonderful experiences in other countries!  Ron is a retired Industrial Chemist and long-time member of Lions, and Raewyn a retired corporate airline manager. Our children left home many years ago, and our grandchildren are all now young adults.  We both love walking, visiting museums, gardens, cooking and exploring different areas and cultures. Ron is a sailor at heart and has owned several boats, the longest owned a 1963, 20-foot beach Austral sailing catamaran. We love the idea of longer house-swaps to fully experience the local area, its history, restaurants, national parks and people. We are open to swapping our car; a manual, diesel Nissan Dualis. Ideally we are looking at Vancouver Island, Canmore AB, and northern Italy.
