Mark and Sheila are wonderful people and we're so lucky to have swapped houses with them. It's a big commitment to fly halfway across the world for a month but they made it feel very easy with their warmth and generosity, even before we boarded the plane. Once we arrived, they went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Where to eat, what to see, how to get there, how to take the kayaks for a road trip - everything had been thought of. They even welcomed us with several wonderful meals before we swapped, and a welcome package where they had thought of absolutely everything. They are just the kind of people we would love to swap with again because of how easy going and considerate they are. And that's before even talking their beautiful home and incredible location. Picture sitting in the hot tub on a high balcony surrounded by nature, admiring the view, the birds, the mountains. It's something we won't ever forget. We stayed for 4 weeks and explored Vancouver Island for much of it, but Salt Spring island is so lovely we easily could have stayed there for the whole trip. We hope they had as much fun in The Netherlands as we did in beautiful British Columbia!
