Notes
We have very friendly neighbors who are very supportive and will definitely say hi and be aware of the home exchange. I will provide all wifi passwords and instructions as well as provide you with their contact information for emergencies.
In the summer, I receive fresh produce from the neighbors several times a week. We also give each other cookies and I buy them presents when I am out of town.

My husband and myself had a great 5 days in Portland at Korallynn’s home. Best thing about the house is the location. Just minutes from downtown which you can access via public transport and grocery store/bars/restaurants all in walking distance. We did have a car for seeing the coast and other areas but you don’t need one if you stay in town. We walked home several nights after a few drinks.
The home was quaint/cozy/neat and well equipped with everything we could need for our stay. The fancy shower head was definitely a treat!
The beauty of Oregon cannot be beat. There are so many gardens, hiking trails, the coast, etc.
This was a sim stay and the family left my home in great shape. We had good communication about a few wants/needs at each other’s homes and that was so nice. Korallynn graciously watered my newly planted garden and that was a big ask from me. She even shared some of their fun things they did and some pictures. Seeing people enjoy your home/area is part of why I’m loving home exchanging. I would definitely recommend this family for a swap.
We had the pleasure of staying at Angelina’s home. Upon our arrival, we were greeted with muffins, tea, roses, shower bombs and sun screen. She had asked me for a code that I would remember so we got into the house with ease. She put up post it notes all over the house. The house was impeccably clean and smelled wonderful. The towels were soft and the bedding was comfy. She left blankets all over the home as well.
We had each others cell phone numbers and emails so we could send a quick text if we had any questions. Throughout the exchange, I knew Angelina was a house swap pro.
Her house is gorgeous! We enjoyed it so much! We went to the water park, hiked at the local conservatory, went to spring training and checked out all the local breweries. We only had breakfast at the house and she had everything set up so it was easy to find. Truly she's thought of everything and made it so easy!
The laid back outdoor living was perfectly set up. She left out the pool toys. The backyard oasis was fantastic! The pool was a perfect afternoon activity.
We enjoyed picking up the duck and chicken eggs daily! It was a fun activity! Also, the eggs were so delicious.
Angelina was lovely! She was super communicative and answered any questions I had so quickly.
Angelina went above and beyond leaving my the house spotless and doing the laundry which was more than I asked her in the instructions for the home. She even left us a nice bottle of wine!
We had been in discussions since before the pandemic about the possibility of an exchange for baseball spring training.
I highly recommend doing a house swap with her! She is a house swap professional and thinks of every little detail to make her home perfect for visitors.
