We are a family of 5 - 2 adults and three kids aged 17, 14 and 9. We love to travel and experience new countries and meet new people. We have a comfy, newly renovated house in historic Uppsala, Sweden with 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. We have travelled a fair amount, but are new to house exchange.
"At the moment we're looking for a 1-2 week swap next summer(2025) sometime between June 16 and August 18, but are also open to other suggestions!"
