About Our Family
My two daughters are grown and live in another part of the country, so I have a large empty home. I am recently retired and love to travel...I usually invite my two sisters along and perhaps a friend or two. We love to see new places and experience
new cultures, as well as go to the wonderful cities in Europe, etc. My Mother is 97, so I am not usually able to take long trips of over two to three weeks.
However, I am open to your offer !!

Lifestyle
I am fortunate to have traveled a lot and seen much of the world but there is still a lot I want to see and do. Please consider an exchange in New Orleans as it is one of the most unique, fun and interesting cities in the US. I have done many exchanges and I have to say, it is one of the best things I have done to expand my horizons and experience life to its fullest.
