Andrew
Hi! I’m based in the beautiful village of Halsall, near the market town of Ormskirk in West Lancashire. We’re surrounded by canals, fields, and footpaths, so spending time outdoors is a big part of our lives.
At home, I live with my girlfriend and her two young children, aged 5 and 9. My eldest son is now a young adult and sometimes still stays with us. Because of that, my travel companions vary – sometimes I travel on my own, sometimes with my girlfriend, sometimes with the children, and annually without fail I take a trip with just me & my son.
We’re an active family who love being outdoors. Skiing is one of our favourite holidays, and we’re happiest in the mountains or by the beach. We’re generally not big city people, although we’re always open to somewhere different – after all, a change is as good as a rest!
We enjoy discovering new places, experiencing local culture, and making the most of family time together. Whether we’re looking for an adventure in nature or a relaxing coastal escape, we always treat the homes we stay in with great care and respect, just as we would hope others would treat ours.
We look forward to meeting fellow PLU members and creating wonderful exchange experiences.
