We are a fun adventurous family of 5 that loves to travel all over the world. We don't always travel together as our teenagers are starting to make their own travel plans.
We live in a big ranch house 5,000 sq ft with large yard in a residential area about 6 miles from downtown Denver and 3 miles to Cherry Creek. We have 2 dogs and they will be at a dog sitter when we travel.
Denver is a great place to visit year round and is one of the sunniest cities in America, about 300 per year. It's 1 mile (1,600m) above sea level which makes it so much warmer and very mild winters. Even if it snows in Denver, it melts within 1-2 days. You can play golf, tennis and hike all year round here. There are lots of great restaurants and local brewery. Colorado is beautiful has the best skiing, snowboarding, hiking, rafting, kayaking and rock climbing.

We are a fun family of 2 adults, 2 teenager and 1 adult son. I am a real estate agent and my husband is a pilot for a major airline. We travel several times a year to show our kids the world and experience different cultures. We open to any country any time. Since my husband works for an airline, we always travel standby, so we can travel and exchange last minute. We're also open to offer a stay for 2-3 people while we are home. We have a very large house.
