Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
We are open to all suggestions around Europe we travel in two or four adults on the trip. We love Paris! Our home is cosy and welcoming of adults and children. There are no pets in the house although other family members pets do visit. The garden is full of flowers and there is an irrigation system so unless we get a very hot spell of sunshine no watering needed!? If you would like help planning your trip, we are very happy to give suggestions about sight seeing and hidden gems of Ireland? We have done four exchange's. Paris twice, England and Switzerland
