Unfortunately it is impossible for us to guarantee that you will secure a swap. Especially with a photo, your chances of a successful exchange are quite good. New members are joining daily with new opportunities available all the time. Your listing remains online for one year. This all depends on your destination and duration.
Some members plan months in advance others are successful at making arrangements in a week or two.
Please consider that we receive new members daily who are looking for compatible swaps sometimes on short notice, other times with more planning. Since your membership lasts a full year, we do recommend that you join as early as you possible so that you can take your time looking at listings and won't be rushed. We have members who make plans months for an international swap months in advance others just weeks in advance. If you have any concerns about when to join, please let us know. Pay all mortgage or rental and utility bills as you normally would, and agree in advance who should pay the phone bills - each exchange party normally pays for their own telephone calls.
