We are 2 adults who like to travel, exercise and enjoy life. We relax from a brisk nature walk and enjoy new environments, cities and the culture they have. We believe that respect for our home and that of others is a basic principle of exchange. We already have some great home exchange experiences and would like to expand our world map with visited places.
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
