We’re flexible on length of stay...it depends on where the exchange is. Increasingly unwilling to do less than a week or so due to hassle of air travel and house cleaning! 🙁 generally up to 4 weeks, but long term exchange possible for New Zealand, Australia. |

Lifestyle
Between April and October we go back and forth to Italy where we have a holiday home. It's in central Italy, less than 2 hours from Roma and 3 from Napoli, and is a very good base for exploring more of Italy. We've put some pictures in.
We enjoy reading, bridge, films, music - classical, Irish and jazz, travel, cooking, gardening and walking. We enjoy travelling, but do not like cities in the heat of summer.
Our home is a couple of miles south of Dublin city centre, with very good bus services and the centre is only about 35 minutes walk through a very pleasant part of Dublin. We are within a couple of hours drive of lots of lovely and interesting places including the Boyne Valley, with its passage graves of Newgrange, Knowth and Dowth. Wicklow , to the south and easily accessed, has great walking and lovely gardens. Kildare has the National Stud, Russborough House, the Japanese gardens and Dublin city itself has lots of attractions, including the Guinness brewery, St. Patrick's Cathedral, the Chester Beatty Library and great museums which have mostly free entry. The beach at Sandymount Strand is just 2 kilometres from our house and you can take the DART train along the coast and visit the fishing village of Howth to the North and Dalkey and Greystones to the south, all with great restaurants and coastal walks.
