About Us

We are a retired couple looking to visit and tour England. We have lived on the Island fulltime for 12 years. We enjoy travel and have visited Europe and most of the Asian countries over the years. House swapping is a new adventure for us however we feel it could be the start of something big.

Destination

Dates are flexible however we want to be there to see the spring flowers. Our summers are very hot so we feel that to enjoy Queensland exchange visitors would be more comfortable with the cooler months. We would prefer a swop outside large cities perhaps approx. an hour or so from London. Access to rail and airport is important. We require a car exchange. Our car is modern reliable Toyota Corolla.
