We are experienced house swappers with 3 exchanges to date since 2013 when we became members. We have travelled with our 6 children to the UK twice ( London and the Cotswolds and to France ).
David and I are both public servants for the government of Canada and enjoy busy careers and a large family of 6 kids. Three are are now in University with the fourth going in September and it is possible they may want to join us for part of an exchange depending upon their work. The kids are experienced travelers having lived in London UK for 2 years in 2002 and again in 2006 while we studied at the London School of Economics and Political Science. We also have swaps to the UK an France.
We are open to short and longer term swaps. We love to experience new places and house swapping makes it affordable for a large family. We love to experience the neighborhoods of places we visit and it is great to walk to local shops and sights.
We are also open to swaps for Canadian long weekends for those who live driving distance to Ottawa and would like to do an affordable weekend getaway.
