I might be interested in swapping with you as I want to go back to the Perth area, maybe Xmas or around Easter 09. I live in the Algarve, southern Portugal - similar climate to Perth. If you're interested, email me at dave@player.pt so we can discuss this more.

Wow this is a fantasic idea!!
Only thing I'm thinking is what classification my house would get!
Would have to do a check box for each need in a hosue.

Although we wouldnt be able to do it for at least a couple of years it sounds like a darn good idea.
Do we swap jobs too?

That's a bloody good idea !!! I'd be up for that although I've got 2 dogs - So maybe its kennels !
Sussex England - Lots of Rain & Wind and then some !!
Wouldnt be able to afford it for a couple of years though, but would seriously be interested in this idea.

I remember talking about southern Portugal on this forum before. Now I'm interested in traveling to the region and wonder if/what alternative accommodations might be available to me.
I read here about the idea of swapping homes. It just so happens I have a beautiful place on a lake here in Maine -- great through the summer months and now if you're crazy into ice fishing or something.
Does someone have a rental unit in the Algarve? Other ideas?
