Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
Though inexplicably not listed, we have had great Homelink exchanges with families in Spain (2003) and France (2012).
The fifteen apartments spread over 6 levels have a very sociable sense of community but there are expectations that the units are not suitable for late partying.
