I don't know how this happened, but we are setting up our 3rd home exchange for this year. Really. We have California in April; Chicago in May and in August a place in West Virginia I grew up going to for hiking. We're delighted. I am starting to look for exchanges for Boston. I am always looking for Boston or Cambridge.
The Chicago gal is bringing a friend. They have already made plans for a Broadway show and a concert. She writes us with updates every week. It's sooo cute. We need a car to fit 4 adults and 1 kid. So we are going to rent. Rent, well until we were offered her car. Anyhoo i don't actually know what type/size car that they have. So I am waiting to find out.
They have offered us use of their car in Chicago. I am hesitant and need some advice. Have you done this? I rent cars all the time and it doesn't bother me. I use my sisters' cars all the time. Somehow using someone's car - and a person I don't know, haven't met - makes me feel uncomfortable. I am not comfortable having people that I do not know use my car. I would not leave keys for my car in NYC. It's not that I plan to get into an accident. I was excited by the free parking - that was totally cool, but a car - oh my gosh it makes me nervous? So what do you think? Am I crazy not to go for this?
Is swapping a car different than exchanging homes? The new exchanger I know seems to think so. I have swapped cars and homes dozens of times. What about you?
