The directories provide the basis through which members may make contact with each other in order to arrange an exchange or other type of holiday. There is no limit to the number of exchanges members may arrange through these directories during the subscription year. Subscription year is October - September. The key to the success of our home exchange program is that it is a reciprocal arrangement between like-minded people which helps ensure a mutual respect for each others property. Members seem to find that every home exchange offers some new form of economy - no accommodation expenses, pets can be cared for at home and the garden watered for no extra fees.
Many members now exchange cars, saving on car hire costs.
Others offer the use of bikes, sports equipment or even the use of a boat or caravan. This is for families who have teenage children. You can organise with other families who have a teenager of a similar age and interests to host your child. It provides a unique opportunity to experience other cultures or regions as well as develop new friendships. This arrangement is usually reciprocated at another time.
