We LOVED our time with Shu and coach Thunder. This was our first experience with a host exchange. They have set a very high bar. Their kindness and generosity was so deeply appreciated and we felt so welcome in their home. Their home is roomy and comfortable with a beautiful backyard garden and is in an area that feels safe and is within a short drive to all the fun of New Orleans. I’ve heard others say they have made new friends during host exchanges. That has certainly been our experience. We are looking forward to their visit to Truckee, hopefully next summer. -
Unfortunately this exchange never happened as our hostess tested positive for Covid a few days before we were due to arrive. Being in a high risk group (although fully vaccinated) we opted to stay in a New Orleans hotel instead. Although sorry not to have met the generous family that offered to host us with nothing definitely arranged in return, we enjoyed New Orleans despite the setback and wish them a speedy recovery.

We are a family of three. My husband and I work in the education field. We love nature and enjoy meeting new people. We would like to visit places with beautiful scenery, hiking trails, canoeing waters, and good food. We often visit our son in Gainesville Florida. My wish list for now: Florida near Gainesville, Savannah Georgia, smoky mountains area, Arkansas around the lakes, California around Bay Area, Europe, Japan, Hawaii. We usually travel as a couple but sometimes our son will join us. We will definitely confirm the number of travelers before we swap.
I have a 3000sqf house with 2-3 spare bedrooms with their own bathrooms for hospitality exchange (hosting). When we travel during summer or winter, the whole house is available. We are looking to retire in a couple of years when we can swap at any time!
