Who are we ?
Very experienced exchangers, we do like to exchange with foreigners (we made around 40 swaps since 1988 !). For a long time we were only members of Intervac (international home exchange), we are now Homelink members too.

We understood quickly exchanges were not only an economic solution but a way of behaving in foreign countries differently from most of tourists. We often choose to live in less crowded places than historic burroughs, sometimes in remote ones, living the life of the locals.

We are also members of Trustedhousesitters & Nomador organizations, as sometimes we like to travel not knowing precisely where we'll go. And then, we do need to find house/pet sitters to keep our dog at home

 Ex smokers, we tolerate smokers as long as they do smoke outside the house.

Vincent used to work for the french ministery of culture, he was in charge of light designing on historical monuments belonging to the state (cathedrals, Mont St Michel, Chateau de Chambord etc.)

I was involved in architecture & town planning.

We don't work anymore now and may  travel all year long. We love that ! So Covid made us very sad. Stuck at home...

We are animals lovers. We lost our beloved border collie, Nuage,  in 2020 then our cat Zig,early january 2021.

We've adopted a new puppy called Tahoe, born in april 2020.  He is nice, well educated, clean.  Could we take him with us to your home ?

We've adopted 2 black kittens in january 2022, Zoé and Zia will remain at home.

Our swap can be simultaneous or not. You may prefer to stay on the ground floor (much bigger : 105m²) and the garden will be  all yours.  If we leave the following day(s), we may sleep and stay on the 1st. The 2 levels are totally independent, the first floor being reachable by an exterior staircase outside in the courtyard.  We don't suggest we live together.
If we go later on to your home, we will take our dog with us if you consent, our cats will remain at home.
