Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in South Hobart, South Hobart, TAS
Hi, I’m a 44 year old teacher with a love for travel and exploring new places. I really enjoy experiencing different cultures, trying local food, and getting a feel for what makes each location unique. In my free time I like to keep active—whether that’s at the gym, walking my dog, cycling, bushwalking or trail running, I just enjoy the outdoors. I also love a good book and am always on the lookout for a great coffee spot. I’m respectful, tidy, and take pride in looking after a home as if it were my own. I’m excited about the opportunity to swap homes and experience new destinations in a more authentic way. My unit is listed on Airbnb so I fully understand how to accommodate people. Link to AirBnB listing available on request.

Tom communicated well with friendliness and ease. He made the swap very smooth. Lu Lu the precious feline was well cared for and the place was looked after well too. I was very happy for his grateful feed back. I look forward to staying in Tom's place next February. Thankyou Tom, it was a pleasure to meet you.
