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.

"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 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!"
"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!"
"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."
"I would recommend PLU anytime. There is such a positive atmosphere among the members and a safe feeling of belonging to this “familiar” community."
"Just completed our first exchange and we are hooked! I had looked into it for years but never felt fully comfortable until connecting with members on PLU. We were excited to become Founding members as soon as the option was available! Its money well spent! We already recouped the expense of the 3 yr membership with our one exchange! We could have not found a hotel room for the night for what we spent. We are so thankful to Drew and all the wonderful people who have built this special 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."
"Gorgeous, A site with people like us, as its name indicates. Free registration, two weeks after 2 exchanges for our planned trip to Australia. Excellent"
