House Swap with me

Hi! I’m a fit, happy, mostly retired RN looking forward to going exploring again after helping my 3 daughters with my 7 grandchildren! This time round I’d like to live somewhere for a month or 3 to soak up the culture and home swap is ideal. I’m equally happy to exchange short breaks in Australia, my home for the past 22years. I emigrated from England and am keen to revisit Europe to see places I missed the first time around. I’m also open to invites from other countries. I love camping, fishing, writing and U3A! I belong to Hervey Bay Fishing Club, volunteer for Rotary International and also volunteer at Festivals ( Medieval and Gympie Muster etc). Sometimes I work a shift in my local hospital ED!
