Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
Minimum stay three nights!
Because the apartment is our main residence, we exchange apartments in the summer month June-September, when the weather is warm and the nature is beautiful. That way, we can take good care of our guests and help them make the trip a success.
Off course, we can arrange simultaneous exchanges at other times as well. Just ask.
