Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
The summer of 2018 our two oldest and my husband are going to a scouts camp arranged together with 1st Keynsham Scout Group. We thought that our family should make something more out of it, and decided to try a home exchange somewhere in south England. The camp is from 21.07.2018 until 01.08.2018. We are interested in an exchange prior to or after the girls scout camp or even prior and under the camp (as I and the 7 year old could stay there when the others are at camp) or under and after the camp. We thought of an exchange for 1-3 weeks and are open for sugestions. Preferably from start/mid July or from August 1st. Please let me know what would be convenient for your family and I sure we can find a good agreement. We are also open to discuss the possibility of a car exchange as well. We have a big 7 seter (diesel) and a small 4 seter (electric). It is important to us to find the house more or less like we left it, so it should be nice and tidy.
