Small family planning 2026 Long-term exchange: Mountain region Oregon USA with Austria/Germany

Hello! My wife and I are hoping to plan a long-term exchange sometime between May and end of September 2026, hoping to land somewhere in Austria or southern Germany. This could be from 4 weeks to 2 months long. We have some history spending time in this region and are hoping to bring our then 1.5-year old daughter to experience a longer stay in a place we really love. Our home is in Bend, Oregon, a medium-sized mountain town that is well-known amongst those who enjoy outdoor activities, great entertainment, and year-round activities, plus close access to an airport and within 3 hours from Portland, a main city on the west coast US. Please take a look at our home here: Basecamp Bend: Gateway to Mountains, Rivers & the Vibrant High Desert Town

Since we are a year out, we wanted to try planning this early, especially if there are multiple families/groups involved where we are able to use a combination of CP and/or reciprocal home exchange. Ideally it would be reciprocal, but we understand that is not always possible.

I am more than happy to continue a conversation with anyone interested, even if there’s a small chance it works out. This has been something my wife and I have been hoping to do for several years. Thanks for reading!

Wow what an amazing adventure you are planning. Welcome to the Forum and fingers crossed you will find a suitable exchange. Have you tried the reverse search function? This may help. Also there are a few long term exchange posts on here that you might want to add your search to the comments - just do a search for long-term exchanges.

Also this was probably just a typo, but it’s GP not CP. :slight_smile:
