I am 53 year old professional. My late husband and I have done about six succesfull home exchanges via another platform, between 2013 and 2017. Destinations were Canada, UsA, Budapest, Prague and Spain. We loved to discover other countries and cultures in this way. One feels more part of the country and culture then in a hotel or holiday resort. I am looking forward to take up the tradition again. Our children are all grown up and live by themselves. I would like to travel to Sicily, New Sealand, New York, California, Canada, Georgia, Armenia, Israel, Bali, the Mediterranean area in general. I will travel with my daughter, with a friend or alone. I have a very sweet cat that will stay at home. I am looking specifically for Greece (summer 2021) and Dublin (18-26 July 2021)
