Here in the US, the folks who write the television shows have been on strike for months. Having traveled during two French train work stoppages I definitely prefer the lack of new TV shows to being stuck in a train station. When I do watch a program, most of the time it's the one where a family tours three houses then picks one to buy.
For a New Yorker it's amazing to see what's on offer in other parts of my country and the world (there's an international version of this show). Most of the time it's something twice the size of my apartment for about one-fifth of the price.
By the end of each show I have my own idea of exactly which house I would buy and it's almost never the one the "house hunters" pick. I don't know why they don't call me before making such an important decision.
And no one ever considers home exchange potential when house shopping on these shows. They all know what makes a house a home, for them, but what makes a house a home exchange?
Let's consider that together. What's the most home-exchange-friendly feature of your home? What would you look for in the perfect home exchange house?
