We are a family of five, living in the beautiful South West of Western Australia. Frank is an Engineer, and Zinette is a stay at home mother who homeschools the three boys. We enjoy off roading, camping, going to the beach and mountain biking. The town we live in is one and a half hours from Perth to the north, and the same distance to the world renowned Margaret river region to the South. Our home is a place or work and play for us, with many people often welcomed into it.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our home is a family home, with one master bedroom, two bedrooms for the kids (one with a bunk bed) and an office. The master bedroom has an ensuite and then the guest/kids bathroom has a bath and a shower. There are ceiling fans in all of the rooms as well as reverse cycle air-conditioning. Zinette enjoys cooking so the kitchen is well equipped for many types of cooking. We have a main sitting area in front of the fire and then a playroom/TV room in the front of the house which has a comfortable couch and Smart TV which can be cast to. This is also our home library and games storage area. We have a front and back garden with mostly edibles and some ornamental plants, all reticulated. The backyard is very family friendly as it is enclosed with gates at both sides of the house. There are many play options for kids with both trampoline, monkey bars, cubby house and sand pit to play in. The side of the house has a lovely deck which is a lovely place to sit and relax on in the warm summer evenings. The laundry is equipped with a washing machine, but no drier but there is both an undercover as well as an open air washing line to use.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
We live in a neighborhood which is very quiet. There is a park down the road from us which is a quick walk and we are a five minute drive from the foreshore where wind surfing and kite surfing is very popular. There are two supermarkets within a five minute drive from our home, and the city of Bunbury is only 20minutes away. There is a bus just up the road from us but our car is also available for use. Our home is also just a 30 minute drive from the Mundabidi mountain bike trail and the Ancient Aboriginal Bibbulmen walking track. The Dolphin Discovery Center and family friendly Koombana beach is nearby where wild dolphins frequently visit. We are an hour and a half from the world renowned Margaret River wine and surf region and only the same north to the city of Perth.
