		<description><![CDATA[New friends are one of the great benefits of travel, especially home exchange travel where you live in a community rather than a hotel.
We arrive at the international Perth airport after midnight on a Sunday night/Monday morning, and move easily through passport, customs, and baggage. We use our cell phone, which we haven’t used in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=patandlewtravel.wordpress.com&blog=758402&post=181&subd=patandlewtravel&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Anne has suggested Pedro’s Gourmet restaurant in the midst of old-town Ajijic. [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=patandlewtravel.wordpress.com&blog=758402&post=151&subd=patandlewtravel&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the really great pleasures of our retirement travel plan, which we hope will continue to expand, is that we have made great new friendships in many wonderful places.
We bought our apartment in Collioure from Una (see finding our perfect apartment ), but it’s been a year since we’ve seen her.

		<description><![CDATA[While waiting in the Girona airport for our flight to Dublin, Donna hears us speaking “American,” and introduces herself. 
A writer, she lives in Argeles-sur-mer, the neighboring town just north of Collioure. Originally from Boston, despite 18 years in Europe, she still has more than remnants of a delightful accent. 
She’s on her way to Dublin [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=patandlewtravel.wordpress.com&blog=758402&post=132&subd=patandlewtravel&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Pat first met Valerie by email, seeking a home exchange in Collioure. That never happened, but Valerie led us to Una and our home (see finding our home in Collioure).

In mid-July, we invite Valerie and Lorcan, and her [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=patandlewtravel.wordpress.com&blog=758402&post=89&subd=patandlewtravel&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
