I agree with Bob on all his points. www.1stHomeExchange.com is an excellent home exchange website for France. Joining more than one home exchange agency provides the most choice. By belonging to more than one agency you will also get a sense of which agencies work the best for you in terms of style, preferences, and exchange opportunties. John Hi Bob C,

(Some work better than others. ) If you're interested in finding a swap in France take a look at http://www.1stHomeExchange.com. They have the most listings in France. Last time I checked it was at about 8000. We've already done several exchanges with them to France (we're retired) including a recent one where we spent a week in Paris (4th visit) followed by two weks in the south in Provence. They have two memberships, a free membership to list (you need to wait to be contacted) or a paid membership where you can start contacting right away. Because not everyone can initiate contact, the odds of finding an exchange in France are really good for paying members. This membership costs $80 for two years. (This is the least expensive of all the sites we're registered on. ) We spend several hundred dollars on membership fees every year - Joining several sites gives us the most flexibility in terms of selecting dates, location and home. We tend to be quite selective and don't say yes to the first offer that comes along. So having choice is really important to us. Since we exchange several times a year our home exchange membership fees are by far our best return on investment. Bob Hi John,
