Hello. Please add your id number or listing link
Your English is great! Thank you for posting and best of luck planning your trip. If you could also add a link to your home so that any prospective exchangers can see your home. This will increase your chances of finding a swap.
Thank you Melissa!! I hope thispost or publishmy home id will work. It’s being difficult to find a place in London! My home id is #2571406. Thanks!!
Hello!! My id is #2571406! Is a perfect place to visit ruins of civil war, fish a very big fish called sirulo, go kayaking, discover rio ebro or Miravet’s castle. Near from us you have Port Aventura, Tarragona (world heritage) or Reus (Gaudi’s birth city).
Before you do anything make sure you can secure tickets to Harry Potter World.
Look at the London tube map and find anything on the Metropolitan Line. Also try St. Albans. I doubt you would want to stay in Garston or Watford. There’s nothing much to do there.
thanks Greg!! yes! in the end I have decided the following: I arrive on the 10th and we go straight to a hotel near the warner. the next day we go to the warner and then we go to London where I will look for accommodation near the centre until 14th september. I am looking for hotels because it has been IMPOSSIBLE to find a house! I may have sent 25 applications! what a pity!

25 requests is not enough at all for London. 20 requests is the average number for worldwide and regular destination. London is the second most requested city on HE in the whole world, you generally need hundreds of requests…
You are outside the school holiday that will help a lot. Travelcards are cheap so consider the outer stations of the Metropolitan Northern Jubilee, Central and District lines. Avoid East London. Hotels a few miles out can be noticeably cheaper and include budget chains like Premier Inn. Hotels dot com is a good starting place to find prices. Booking dot com is similar but 5% more expensive.
Also consider where you are flying from and how far the hotel is though 14th is a Sunday so road traffic will be light especially before 11am.
