Getting around
We normally offer car exchange that makes it easy to get around. There is a bus stop within about 100m.
We couldn’t have had a better ‘first experience’ on the PLU platform. My sister and I stayed at Mike’s house for 8 nights, in exchange for a precious globe.
Mike welcomed us on arrival and gave us a little tour. The house was clean and spacious, with several indoor and outdoor seating areas. The beds were extremely comfortable and so was the rain shower.
The large Citroen Grand Picasso was the icing on the cake. The house is located only 150 meters from the ocean in a quiet location. There’s a small local supermarket for all your needs, and only a 10-minute drive away a very large mall.
We’ve created some unforgettable memories! From walks along the ocean, to wildlife spotting in the National Parks (Whiteman and Yanchep). We visited Penguin Island and spotted many birds. However, Rottnest Island was definitely the highlight, meeting the quokkas. Perth CBD is easy to reach in 10 minutes, with the train from Sterling. And on the one rainy day, we had a great time in an escape room near Joondalup.
We could easily have spent another week at Mike’s home and would highly recommend his place. Thanks for a wonderful exchange Mike!
Danielle and Jeannette
Thank you for your positive review. As guests, you were exemplary.
This member has not yet received any guest feedback.
Jeanette and her sister stayed at our place and used our car in exchange for a globe. We were initially going to use their property in Melbourne but some things came up which meant we couldn't go to Melbourne so I offered our place in exchange for the globe.
They were excellent guests. The communication before and during the visit was great and they were easy to deal with.
The house and the car were very well looked after. Both were spotlessly clean when they left.
I would highly recommend Jeanette to anyone considering an exchange with her.
Thank you Jeanette.

Michael
We are currently searching for a reciprocal exchange in Asia or using our globe from March to the end of May 2025. Mike and Lesley have traveled to many countries for work and vacation. We have lived and worked in a number of countries including Malaysia and the UAE.
We are easygoing and like to travel to smaller communities to experience the local cultures, foods, and wines.
We prefer to exchange cars. We have a Porsche Cayenne or BYD Atto 3.
Mike retired from the position of CEO of a large organisation.
We are particularly interested in various wine regions of the world - there are still a few we haven't visited.
We have completed about 10 exchanges mostly in another platform and have received 5-star ratings for our home and us as guests.
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.
