Start your home exchange experience with People Like Us by building up your listing. Add unlimited photos, describe your home and region, introduce your family, and include a profile picture.
At People Like Us, we offer four types of home exchange:
Simultaneous: The most common type, where you exchange homes with another member at the same time.
Non-Simultaneous: Exchange with another member at different times, providing flexibility in travel arrangements.
Non-Reciprocal: A one-way exchange, with exclusive use of another member's home. Most non-reciprocal exchanges use Globes, our unique token for non-reciprocal exchanges. A Globe is worth one stay at another member's place, with duration and location agreed upon by you and your exchange partner.
Hospitality: Experience staying at another member's place like an invited guest, using part of your host's home.
Explore your dream vacations with ease by sending enquiries through People Like Us. Our intuitive filters help you define desired destinations, dates, and home types. Introduce yourself, share your preferences, and contact multiple members in your desired region.
Receive enquiries from others, opening doors to fantastic opportunities. Even if you're not interested, respond courteously - we value a caring community.
For more exposure, join our lively Facebook group, where we chat about travel and life. Share your home and travel preferences. Trust, the foundation of home exchange, thrives in our community. Your perfect vacation awaits!

"We've just agreed our first two exchanges with PLU and couldn't be happier with the whole experience!"
"PLU is an amazing home exchange organisation driven by trust, honesty and a deep desire not just travel but to get to know people in other places, especially those who have allowed us into their homes. PLU may be the newest exchange sites but it doesn't lack wisdom. It's founder - one of the nicest Australian humans you could wish to meet - listens to members; is constantly improving the functionality of the website, and loves meeting PLU members. A winning combination! I would highly recommend PLU. It doesn't matter if your home is a small flat, a smart apartment, a country mansion or a cottage by a lake. If you can make people feel welcome, new friends will come. Give it a try."
"I think PLU is amazing - and Drew is doing an exceptional job of managing this site."
"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!"
"We love the community and the sense of trust. This is the perfect place for those of us that believe there are good people in the world that also enjoy traveling and experiencing other cultures."
"With PLU it has been like living within a big family. Lovely!"
"We love the vibe of PLU! Friendly, accessbile, and trusting. We've exchanged via another site and we are looking forward to exchanging via PLU soon!"
