Read More...After more than 20 exchanges with Homelink, this was our first non-international exchange. And during the pandemic, this was an ideal opportunity to ease back into home exchanges. Tead and Leah were excellent hosts and did everything to make our week in San Francisco's Haight a wonderful experience. Close to the park for daily runs. Easy public transportation to other parts of the city. It felt great to be back (!) to San Francisco and home exchanges.
