And our Homelink advisor was only a phone call away. We arranged a holiday in Germany. We had tried many types of holiday in the past but this was definately the best. The children had a great time as our exchange house became a home from home. All of the facilities required for a family, together with local knowledge of when and where to go.
All advice given is relevant and worth following.
We were lucky to meet our fellow exchangees at the airport both before and after our holiday which made it special. We also found email facility absolutely invaluable for communicating across the miles. To say we really enjoyed our exchange this year would be an understatement, we have nothing but praise for the whole concept of Home Exchanging. The French family we exchange with had a beautiful house much larger than our own. They left our home in absolutely perfect condition, as we did theirs of course.
