Notes
We are no strangers to home exchange and has been organising home exchanges through connections from family and friends for the past 10 years on a more informal basis, however we are now very excited to have joined PLU and to be part of this great community and do this on a more formal level.

Elin
My name is Elin Priestman, I am Swedish, but have lived in London for the past 14 years. Previously to living in the UK, I also lived in Vancouver. My husband, Nick, and our 5 year old daughter Grace, live just outside central London. We enjoy travelling, going to restaurants & exploring Londons museums. We are quiet, tidy and non-smokers. We like exploring cities and therefore love staying in flats/apartments to get to live like a local.
"Summer 2025 - sometime between 26 July & 2 September"
Dates flexible
"We have family in Sweden so we’re always looking for a simultaneous exchange around UK school holidays and major holidays like Christmas & Easter and summer holidays."
Jul 26, 2025 - Aug 31, 2025
"We will be travelling to Vancouver and Vancouver Island in summer 2025. Looking for a non simultaneous exchange primarily."
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.
