About Us

We are a family of five; with sons aged 18 and 14 and a daughter aged 9. We are interested in seeing the world and this looks to be an exciting possibility. I am a nurse and my husband is a family doctor. We will take care of your home with the same care and attention as we do for ours. We would love to get away over the Christmas holidays and then again for all or part of summer 2008 for an exchange. Please tempt us with your location. We are open to all prospects.

We are interested in a swap with a strong cultural experience for our family. We will exchange for the one month or the entire summer of 2008. Please present all offers, we are open minded people and will consider everything! We are excited to see where this will take us...
