Hi Patrick, welcome to the English forum! Unfortunately your text has disappeared , but I’m here to help!
I have the luck to be on exchange in Patrick’s home in the Sables d’Olonne at this moment !
Patrick’s home is absolutely lovely! It’s,a bungalow with a large private garden, just a few minutes from the most beautiful beach and the port od Sables,d’Olonne. The house is really bright thanjs to large bay windows. Patrick has 2 bikes which we ysed to explore the local area. A really safe bicycle path takes you directly to the beach or into town in just a few minutes. Whilst we’re here we plan to visit the world renowned park of Puy de Fou which is just under an hour away.
This would be no doubt a fabulous location for a stay in September .
We were really fortunate to meet Patrick and his wife Jeannine when we arrived. Their welcome was exceptional ! They are really friendly, experienced exchangers who have travelled the world whilst home exchanging. It’s a real privilege to exchange with them and we love their home 
Merci beaucoup pour votre aide Susan ainsi que pour votre sympathique message.
Bien cordialement
Patrick
