"People Like Us is a warm, welcoming community. In it we have found kindred spirits who view the world with the same enthusiasm and curiosity as we do. We have opened our front door and found the whole world waiting on the other side. It's an absolute joy! One thing we've found here that we don't have on our other exchange site: a vibrant Facebook community. It feels such a privilege to be connected to so many people who also have what we call 'an exchanger's heart', people who understand what is at the core of swapping homes: a genuine desire to travel, share and grow. As Susan Sontag once said, "I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list.""
"The PLU platform is more than a house exchange site! It is a space where each member wants to support and encourage others. We exchange our homes but also know how to live together! Advice, tricks, gifts, and even a Secret Santa are part of what we love about this platform. And we also want to share all of this to create a new, more egalitarian and more collaborative world. We are proud to be part of this home exchange community!"

"Discovering PLU has been such a wonderful experience for us. We love the community and exchanging has completely changed the way we think about travelling. With two small children and being restricted to school holidays, travel was previously so expensive and frustrating. We love arriving at a new exchange with all the home comforts and being able to explore somewhere new. We would urge anyone on the fence to jump right in, you won’t regret it."
"PLU is as much a global family as it is a home exchange site. Other members feel like friends, especially the ones we have exchanged with. Members care about each other's welfare and we even have a Secret Santa at Christmas!"
"We think this is the most inclusive and friendliest site in the world. It's like we are just waiting to meet our new best friends from around the world that we haven't had a chance to meet yet! So many friendly and exciting lands and opportunities await us all. Let's get traveling!! Wishing everyone and their families a safe and prosperous 2023!"
"So far all my experiences with PLU have been fantastic. I can’t stress enough how glad I am to be a member of this community. I’ve made friends and had amazing exchanges. Even the website is easy to maneuver."
"We absolutely love this PLU Family that we are all a part of! Nothing compares to the wonderful and amazing friends that we have made, and continue to make :) We never thought that we would even want to exchange our home but now we can't get enough of looking for exchanges!"
