Calne, Reino Unido

We love the home that we have worked on over the last five years which is perfectly nestled in a small, rural. market town but close to great historical sites and cities alike. Now that our children are grown up and settled and with our retirement from teaching, we are very excited about the prospect of travelling more and meeting new people. At home we like to meet up with friends, indulge our love of history (We were primary and maths teachers) and have also enjoyed hosting international students. In our travels we've always tried to meet local people and learn new languages (At least a little) rather than just being a tourist. We have always hoped that our retirement we allow us to share our home with others, welcoming them to our area and continue explore other places too. We recently said goodbye to our dear dog, Aggie and we know that our collie, Fen is also quite elderly now. She is still very happy and hopefully we can enjoy more time with her yet, but she spends her days sleeping and enjoying the garden now. We also have a large pond with Koi carp that help to make the garden a really relaxing place to be. From July our lifestyle will probably feel quite different from the busy teaching schedule that we have now but I will look forward to continuing my singing and Damon will be starting lots of new projects that he's planned already and we both love our garden too.
