-
Jeanine and Joe were ideal home guests and didn’t leave any trace of their fur babies in the house, at all. We really enjoyed exchanging with them and have already discussed a further exchange. -
Jeanine and her sister Flo were great guests. Friendly and fun, and left everything spotless! Even left us a card and got us some flowers. So kind! -
Jeanine and Joe were fantastic guests! Communication with them was effortless, and they left the home in impeccable condition. They were patient and understanding when a couple of minor hiccups occurred, handling everything with grace. We would happily host them again and highly recommend them to any home exchange host. -
Jeanine and Joe were great exchange partners. With this couple the communication was perfect and easy before and during the exchange and they are optimistic, flexible and really active people. They listened to all our recommendations and were champions in tourism with the high temperatures of this summer that have affected Spain and the rest of Europe. They have cared for our house and our plants with love and have left it bright for our return. Thank you Jeanine and Joe for making it all so easy. I can't imagine better exchange partners and here you will always be welcome😘 -
Jeanine and Joe are sweet people that left our house as we left it, excellent. We hope to visit them some day. -
Jeanine & Joe left my home in immaculate condition (kitchen floors are gleaming!). Great guests & would be delighted to welcome them again in the future. -
Jeanine and Joe stayed in our apartment around the end of 2024 and everything went perfectly. They left our home in excellent conditions. We now look forward to our staying at their place in Belfast. Higly recommendable couple! -
As I mentioned before, Jeanine is not just a great host but even a great guest. She is communicative, very friendly and our apartment was treated as like it was her home - spotless and perfectly prepared even for our next visitor, as we were staying in Slovakia at our parents at the same time. Moreover, she is very generous and hospitable, as Bellini package (my favourite drink that I tried in Italy sooner this year), apparently obtained during a wine festival she and her husband Joe visited together while staying in Prague, was waiting for us after getting back home, what a thoughtful surprise :) don't hesitate to exchange with Jeanine and Joe at all and just do it ! ;) -
I had the pleasure of having Jeanine and Joe stay at my apartment for one night in July this year. We had a blast. They are so nice, kind and open people and I hope I will have the opportunity to visit them in Ireland one day. They had to witness electricity disappear in my apartment while I was on my way to Italy during the night. But they handled that with a smile. The communication with Jeanine was super all the way through. -
Casper and I went to stay in Joe and Jeanines home over Easter earlier this year and we had an absolute fab time ther ewith the valueadded bonus of looking after their fur babies <3 Now I could welcoem them in my house and it was such a pleasure to have them. One can tell that their are happy and experienced exchangers. Jeanine and I have chatted for a very long time from when we riginally started to organize our exchanges. We also kept in touch during their stay in Denmark and even managed to meet up for a drink one afternoon. It was brilliant meeting them i IRL and we chatted like we've known eachother for years - well, Jeanine and I didnt leave poor Casper and Joy many chanced to get a word in :-D They spoiled my furry critters big time and I'm sure my pets, especially Cleo, miss them much! Jeanine and Joe have taken excellen care of my pets and my home and it has been such a pleasure having them stay! They left my house in perfect condition and even took the time to prep a load of washing before they left. I can most certainly give them my highest recommendation and urge you to exchange with the lovely couple. You guys are always more than welcome to come back! <3 -
Jeanine was great to deal with, sent great info on her home and was generous in her advice and tips. Lovely person - hope our paths cross for one of those PLU get-togethers someday soon. You're welcome back anytime too. :) -
I would love a big get together for the growing number of people in Ireland / NI now
-
Jeanine had a great weekend in our house with her Joe and the doggies and was very respectful and easy to communicate with. -
It was a pleasure to welcome Jeanine and Joe to our house, after staying in their home last July. During the interim we have built up a lovely friendship and have had ongoing communication. They have been perfect exchange partners and have looked after our house like their own, leaving it clean and tidy. -
Long may our friendship continue 😍
-
Jeanine & Joe were a delight to exchange with. Lovely people from our 1st FaceTime chat, super communications leading up to their stay at ours & super to meet in person, we had so many things in common! They left our home as if they hadn’t even been there! Great updates as they enjoyed our usual local surroundings, can’t wait to arrange our time to them, hope if we can get together for a beer or two! -
Jeanine and Joe were excellent guests and we would not have known anyone had been our house while we were gone. They took very good care of our home. Thank you Jeanine and Joe ❤️ -
We welcomed Jeanine, her niece and her children for a stay with us for a few days. Good communication, no problems and we were lucky to be able to share a meal together on the last day. As with our first exchange with Jeanine, we highly recommend doing exchanges with her and her family. -
Jeanine and Joe were fantastic guests! So glad we got to meet them briefly in person before their stay at our house. They were so easy to communicate with and took amazing care of our house. We would happily host them again -
Jeanine y Joe were great guests in our home very respectful and left the place tidy as they had found it Wish we could have met each other again but I’m sure our paths will cross again Safe travels and stay in touch Happy new years James y Sheila -
Thanks Sheila. Knowing that you had another guest coming hyped up my OCD haha! I really hope we meet again. Happy New year to you both xo
-
It was lovely to welcome you to our house and to know that our dog was so well cared for. He thanks you for his gifts! You're welcome any time. We would not hesitate to exchange with Jeanine and Joe again, they are perfect exchangers. Thanks again. -
Our house was in perfect condition when we came back . It was well looked after and the cat I think wants to move to Belfast ! He was spoilt while we were away . -
We found our house and our car as we had left it. Jeanine and Joe were extremely respectful of the place. Communication was very fluid with them throughout the stay. We communicated at the end like old friends, which was particularly pleasant for us. They took good care of our two cats, even the most fearful of the two allowed himself to be tamed. We therefore strongly recommend Jeanine and Joe and we would welcome them again if the opportunity arose.
-
Everything went fine. We arrived to the place exactly as we left it. -
Fantastic guests -place is spotless to come back to. Great communication and very respectful and responsible. -
Jeanine and Joe stayed at our house in Dublin as part of our first exchange for a long weekend. They were the perfect guests. Communication was great with them before and during the exchange. If any of us had questions, we would ask. They are organised people (much more than me!) and so made it very easy to exchange with. They left our house spick and span afterwards - was a lovely feeling to come back home knowing that our home had been cared for. I can highly recommend exchanging with Jeanine and Joe, we had such a great experience.

Jeanine & Joe
Hi there. I'm Jeanine and my hubby is called Joe. I'm in my mid 40s and Joe is early 50s. I'm an avid traveler who drags my hubby along on my coat tails as he's a bit more of a home bird who takes a little more convincing to travel.
We live in a lovely community in Belfast surrounded by really nice neighbours. I would literally go anywhere, including close to home. I want to visit 50 countries before I am 50 years old. I am currently 46 years old and on 47 countries. Thanks to exchanging, by late 2025 I'll have increased that number to 49 if all goes well!
We welcome everyone at our home regardless of colour, religion, sexual identity, gender or ethnicity. Humanity, compassion, acceptance and kindness are values I hold on to firmly.
At home we have now have three very cute pups called Bailey, Darcy and our little rescue chihuahua Lady. They are 5 and 6 years old.
We are happy to exchange with folks who have animals. I have 20 plus years experience in having dogs and am just crazy about them so really willing to look after your pups if you can also look after ours. We've developed a love of cats thanks to exchanging. Other animals also a possibility. Our dogs don't really enjoy being sent away to other's houses so if an exchange is simultaneous we would really appreciate our pups being able to stay home. They need short walks twice per day and can be left for approx 5-6 hours while you sightsee so they aren't very restrictive to your plans. Or of course you can bring them with you.
We are both very respectful, clean and tidy and will treat your home with respect. I adore this site and love that people want to visit Belfast. We bought a caravan in 2024 so when we're not travelling we'll spend a lot of weekends in it, meaning we can host you in our home for a couple of nights if you're coming through Belfast.
