“We were on the road to Mexico for a few months but met Selene through Home for exchange in the beginning of our trip. She as been really helpful to us even when we were not in La Pitaya where we stayed about a week. Meeting her and her family was great and we are looking forward to receive them in our place. I would recommend her places especially to those who want to get the feel of nature without being too far away from the city. Thanks again to Selene! We had exchanged our house before (non simultaneous) but it was our first experience in going to somebody's else. We loved it and think it's a good way to discover another country. Sandra”
Best place in Mexico, beautiful and near everything!

About our home
It is a very nice house which is made of an antique log cabin and of solid stone from the zone. It has a lovely garden and has very nice neighbors. It is quite comfortable and has a chimney and a lovely terrace. Although it is in a very hidden and nice area, La Pitaya, is near from everything. We have beautiful surroundings.

Selene's reviews
As a host (2)“There are many ways of winning a lottery and our home exchange was one of them... We had an incredible stay in Mexico and Selene helped us with all that we wanted, needed or liked. The house is very beautiful with an impressive garden and surrounding. The city of Coatepec is nearby and very charming and pleasant. Too many things to mention... We stay with a lot of beautiful memories and we miss the place and its people. Thanks Selene !!!”

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
It is located in the best place between Coatepec and Xalapa, in the State of Veracruz. These cities are 8 kilometers apart. This rural zone is recognized as one of the most important biodiversity places in the country and also in Latin America. Xalapa is the capital city and has the finest Olmeca Museum which makes it the ideal place to start a trip to the southeast of the country. It is 100 kilometers from Veracruz.
We have a second house available for the same trip at the National Park of El Chico. If you are interested I can send photos of .
We have previously made exchanges with families from Washington D.C, England and France. I speak English, French, Italian and Spanish.
