With my home comes Leo the cat. He stays outdoors at all times but needs a feed - and cuddle if you like :-).
No problems however should you stay away, i can always ask a neighbour to feed Leo.

Notes
Leo the cat lives with us and i would prefer if he can stay while guests are here (note: he sleeps outside at night but requires feeding)

Lisa’s home was our base for a good week end of July. We had great contact during the whole process and can only recommend Lisa’s tastefully finished house and really comfortable bed and couches. There are multiple decks you can sit and enjoy the sun (we enjoyed a week of full sunshine so also looked up the shade). The back is more quiet than the front and it’s nice to have the option to be in different outdoor spaces. There are so many things to see, we went to Gothenburg a very short ride twice, but the second time only to go island hopping by public transportation (we bought the day card which was really cheap). However, the rest of the time we enjoyed the local splendour, the fjord, the villages, hikes in nearby nature reserves. There’s so much to see and do if you like us like the mix of nature, city and relaxing in a really nice home after a day of adventure. Lisa many thanks for letting us visit with our dog Molly, even your cat Leo let us stay! We enjoyed our evening together and hope we will meet again! This exchange comes highly recommended. -
Thank you Lisa for welcoming us to your home! -
Lisa has a beautiful and spacious home with everything you need. The house was tidy and clean and had a nice garden and a lovely conservatory where we had breakfast every morning. There is a really nice beach close by and the kids enjoyed some crab fishing. The best pizza ever is just a 2 min walk from the house!! We were lucky to meet both Lisa and her lovely daughter. They were both really sweet and helpful. We fell in love with Leo the cat!❤️ Thank you so much for a great vacation Lisa! I hope to see you again some day! -
I'm a newbie in home exchange, and I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to exchange homes with Lisa. It has given me wonderful memories. It's a peaceful place that makes you feel at ease. The house is cozy and allows you to relax and unwind. I thoroughly enjoyed experiencing life there, feeling like a local. It has been a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend you exchanging with Lisa. -
We had the most wonderful time in Lisa's home - it is the most restful, airy, comfortable house and we loved our stay here! We had everything we could possibly need - a terrific kitchen to cook in, very comfy beds and a very beautiful loving room with a huge couch and a stunning view of the gorgeous area in which Lisa lives. We loved Leo - the most independent and courteous cat we have ever met - we looked forward to meeting him every evening we came home. Onsala is a lovely area and you might be lucky enough to be there at a time when the observatory is open for visitors - we also loved nearby Kungsbacka and in the surrounding area there is everything one could need in terms of dining, shopping and lovely walks. Goteborg is 25 away by car and is a fantastic city - absolutely worth a number of days exploration. Some stunning islands are also nearby - many of which are accessible and truly worth visiting - we went to Marstrand and if we had time we would have explored more - this area of Western Sweden is extraordinarily beautiful and we will be back!

i live on my own but have two grown up daughters who occassionally move back home again as they are currently studying abroad. I have a cat who i would prefer to be able to stay at home while i have guests here. I have exchanged houses a few times before and love it! such a great way to see the world! i work full time but can be fairly flexible in exchanging as working remotely works out too.
