General Overview
Our home is a 4 bedroom- 3 bathroom single family home with a great, lush backyard (with a trampoline) in a very family-friendly community. We have a community pool and jacuzzi just down the street that is beautiful and relaxing. There are many families with young children, and a school at the end of the street, which makes it extra safe. There are lots of parks nearby, and we are 4 miles to the BEAUTIFUL beaches of Encinitas and Carlsbad, only a 10-minute drive to Legoland, 30- minute drive to the Zoo, Safari Park and Seaworld. We have a beautiful stone fireplace for winters, and an open, airy vibe for summers. You will feel relaxed and welcome here.
The Space
Spacious cozy living room with AC and fireplace, large dining room and formal living room. Backyard has lush plants and outdoor dining. Primary bedroom has on-suite bathroom. We also have a first floor bedroom for accessibility.
Guest Access
2 story home, but has bedroom and bathroom on first floor.
Notes
We have a 4-year old, people-pleasing, friendly, cuddly dog named Molly. She is a rescue "mutt," about 45 pounds, short hair, has all her shots, and is very easy-going.

We are a family of 3 residing in beautiful, sunny San Diego California. We love to travel and experience different cultures! My husband, Chris, and I both work in Education (he's a teacher and I'm a School Counselor), and our daughter, Hannah, is in Kindergarten, so we have a lot of time off in the summer to travel :)
We are brand new to home exchange, but I personally studied abroad in Madrid for 4 months in 2009, where I lived with a host family and traveled all over Europe. I also did Semester at Sea, and did short study abroad experiences during grad school to Thailand and Hong Kong, Costa Rica, and Kenya. My daughter loves to swim so the ocean and/or pools are a big plus for us.
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
