Julie and Daryl have been fantastic guests, and it was a pleasure having them at our place. We also agreed on giving them our Mini Clubman which broke down during their stay. The enthusiasm and willingness to help to sort it out was amazing. We are happy that PLU is such a platform of lovely and open-minded people, and Julie and Daryl having the spirit of PLU. If you have a chance to host Daryl and Julie, we can assure you that your house will be in good hands.
Thanks for your lovely comments. We felt very lucky to be staying in your beautiful villa which is very comfortable, peaceful and relaxing. It is very close to beautiful beaches and places of interest and there are lovely restaurants nearby. The weather in March was stunning. Communication before and during our stay was excellent. Thanks again Katrin and Stefan and family. Very Best Wishes
Julie and Daryl

Open minded but swaps do not need to be simultaneous as the villa is our holiday home.
