Home Exchanges in Europe

Ever thought about swapping homes for a much needed vacation?  Many travelers are doing this every year to save money or to have a more personal experiences.  There are many services that handle these vacation home exchanges.  What a great way to see the world...more houses...

All you need is a house to swap in a great area that people would want to visit.  Unfortunately, it gets very hot in the summers in the Central Valley of California where I live but we are the gateway to the beatuiful Sequoia parks, wineries and the great wonder of the world, Yosemite!  Who knows what others are looking for in an area--maybe family nearby or a wedding to attend.  Here's just a sample of homes you might find to swap in Europe.  

Lake Como, Italy

  

Marbella, Spain

Countryside of Cognac, France

Edinburgh, Scotland

London, England

These homes happen to be from LoveHomeSwap.com (this is not an endorsement). 

Here is a rustic little place in Procida near Naples, Italy.  Naples has great access to to Mt. Vesuvius, Pompeii, Sorrento, Amalfi Coast, Capri, Ischia. and more.

You may end up with a cute home like this one to use!

If you've ever used a home exchange service, I'd love to hear about your experiences.
