We are both medical doctors and we work at the hospital. We have three children: Ariane, 12, Raphaël, 11, and Charles, 7. We already did 6 successful exchanges (both with Homelink and Homexchange), and we really love travelling this way. Our children are very well-behaved and respectful. We love our home and take very good care of it. Be sure that we'll treat your home with the same respect.
We prefer exchanging with families with children.
We're very looking forward to hearing from you !
Summer 2022 : Looking for a two weeks exchange, between 23-07 and 15-08, in Europe.

Read More...We had a wonderful house exchange; the family made us feel so welcome in their beautiful home and had taken great care and attention to help us settle in and have a fabulous holiday. The house was immaculately clean and had a wonderful selection of toys it was hard to tear our children away to explore the surrounding area. There was plenty to keep the whole family happy in the sunshine and in the rain. In summary, a beautiful, family friendly home in a lovely area of France.
