Description

We live on a quiet cul-de-sac in Kamloops BC, a small city in the interior of British Columbia. Our house is over 2500 square feet with a large yard (with play yard) and 2 large decks. We have 4 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, living room, rec room, etc. Air conditioning to keep the house cool in the summer and 2 fireplaces for the winter. It is a modern house with all your daily needs: full kitchen, television/dvd/digital cable, washer/dryer, stereo, etc.
We have a mini-van for exchange which can accomodate 7 people. There are bicycles for your use. Also, we have plenty of children's needs including high-chair, playpen, strollers, etc.
Kamloops is located in the Thompson valley, where the Thompson rivers meet. There are a variety of city parks and trails both along the river and in the mountains. We enjoy swimming in the river or local lakes, camping and hiking, and there is a golf course within walking distance. Other local activities include river rafting, world-class fishing, and mountain-biking.

Only 3.5 hours from Vancouver, 45 minutes to Sun Peaks ski resort, 1.5 hours to Shuswap resort area and 1.5 hours to Okanagan wine country, you are in the centre of many close attractions.

Neighborhood

Our house is located in the Aberdeen neighbourhood of Kamloops, on a quiet street with lots of young families. Easy access to the highway and only 10 minutes to the urban centre, major shopping centres, movie theatres, and restaurants. Many hiking trails and parks nearby, as well as a golf course within walking distance.
The hills around the house provide breathtaking views of the surrounding grassland hills, the Thompson River, and, in the distance, the peaks of Wells Gray Provincial Park.

About Us

My husband and I are both professional foresters and work for the provincial government. We speak english as well as some french and spanish. We have one 3 year old daughter, Calla, and a black labrador retriever, Lulu.
In the summer we enjoy swimming in the river and hiking in parks close-by. In the winter we ski, both downhill and cross-country, and we both play hockey.

Destination

Our preference would be 3-4 weeks simultaneous exchange to the south of france in summer or fall of 2008!
