Picture this, you're planning your next adventure, and your travel partner says they can't make it. Or you always travel solo but would find it easier to home exchange with another solo gal.
This PLU community allows like-minded women to find each other, connect and swap their homes all over the world.
In this era of interconnectedness and shared values, home exchange emerges as a perfect bridge for solo women travel enthusiasts. It allows for secure friendly home-based exploration, not just re-locating to impersonal hotels.
Whether you're dreaming of wandering through the historic streets of Europe, lounging on tropical beaches, or indulging in cultural experiences, you can be in the comfort and security of a real home away from home.
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!

"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!"
"The website is constantly upgraded with added features and functionality to make it more user-friendly. The site seems to be a labor of love for the management."
"The PLU platform is more than a home exchange site! It is a space where each member wants to support and encourage others. We exchange our homes but also a way of living together! Tips, tricks, giveaways, and even a Secret Santa are some of what we love about this platform. And we also want to share all this to create a new, more egalitarian and collaborative world. We are proud to be a part of this home exchange community!"
"People Like Us is more than just a home swapping website - we love feeling part of a community that offers opportunities to make meaningful connections with people around the world."
"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."
"Perhaps the most friendly home exchanging community in the world, People Like Us brings like minded people together. With a love of travel, whether that be far and wide, or in your local area, PLU is a fabulous network offering ideas about destinations that you may never have contemplated. Come on, join us! You will never look back!"
"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."
"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!"
