"I would recommend PLU anytime. There is such a positive atmosphere among the members and a safe feeling of belonging to this “familiar” community."
"I write my testimony in Italian because unfortunately in Italy traveling by exchanging houses is still a little-known way of travelling, but believe me it is fantastic: you visit places you would never have visited, far from tourist destinations, you are guests in houses full of comforts, you meet people welcoming from all over the world and they often stay in contact with you over time, you save money and sometimes even exchanging the car is very convenient, there is always someone at your house to water your plants or feed your animal friends. Of all the communities I signed up for, this is undoubtedly the best, super organized and full of nice people!"
"We have used a number of home exchange sites over a couple of decades. PLU is now a favorite as the philosophy is one of trust and respect, values we hold dear. It will only improve as new members join."
"PLU's founder Drew, has created a community of like-minded people that works for the individual member and the group. We have witnessed its growth over the last couple of years and are amazed at the caring attitude of its members. So many times, when help has been needed for various scenarios, the Facebook page is alight with suggestions and offers; and most often a solution is found. Drew has also been consultative and responsive, adapting the website and adding features that make it easier and more efficient to use. We are happy to be part of this group!"
"I wish I had found out about PLU sooner! It has allowed me to not only dream of travel, but to actually experience places I wouldn't have thought about before. The members are so friendly and the Administrator, Drew Seitam, responds quickly to questions or any user problems you may have. It's also fun to be a part of the Facebook group where you are in conversations with people from all over the world and get the scoop on where the locals recommend that you go to for sites and food."
"I've never really been a "joiner" (like Groucho Marx said, "I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.") but PLU changed that. After serendipitously coming across their Facebook page and joining just to see what it was, I loved these people! Adventurous, trusting, fun, and friendly, they were the people I followed during Covid. When Drew (who I feel like I know personally) created a way to officially join, I joined--and I'm so glad I did!"
"If you have ever thought of home exchanging, People Like Us is the ONLY website and community you should turn to to give it a try. It will quickly make you realize what you’ve been missing and make you question why you waited so long to try home exchanging. Welcome!"
"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!"
