About Us

We are a family of five. Two adults and 3 kids. 1,2 and 8 years old.
It is the first time that we participate in a home exchange, but after having heard so many good things about it, we are ready to jump!

We wish to exchange our home for one that could welcome us 5, with a car that can carry us 5 as well. With a family with kids would be helpful but not mandatory.

At this point we are still flexible for the date and the destination.
