“We spent a week in June 2018 in Auður's apartment. It was exactly as described. The location was great and we were able to walk to the restaurants and shops. Having a car exchange allowed us to travel further afield and explore the great outdoors. There is lots to do both locally and further afield including so no hesitation in recommendation the location and of course the hosts . ”

About our home
Our apartment is compact with private entrance and very good location at the harbour area in Reykjavik city center. Free parking all around the house. Supermarkets and restaurants are within a short walking distance.
Our apartment is occupied with school girls during winter, so it is only available for summer time; June, July and August until the 20th. However, if you are open to non simultaneous changes we can travel all year. The summer of 2018 is fully booked..

Auður's reviews
As a host (2)“We had a lovely week in Reykjavik, the home is 5 minutes walk from the city centre in a quite area across from the harbour, it could not have been a better location. Very comfortable beds, we slept very well. Ideal for supermarkets again a 5 min walk. I had a fun first evening at Audur's and his wifes main home, 5 minutes walk away, they were very kind and friendly, lovely meal and drinks. We enjoyed driving around Iceland with the exchange car, doing the Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon and some of South West Iceland, it was beautiful. They will be coming to my home in Stirling, Scotland in 2020 and look forward to seeing them. I would happily recommend an exchange if you are looking to get to know Iceland.”
More about us
-
We are a married couple in our fifties. We love traveling and now when our youngest son has just moved out of our home, we hope to be able to travel even more.
We have a brother living in Spain and a sister living in Luxembourg, so therefore we would not be interested in swapping houses within these countries. -
We are urban professionals, both in real estate business.

We love traveling and like to travel in rural / countryside areas.
