Starting the Year with Northern Lights

We started the year with stunning northern lights here in Umeå. Winter can be unpredictable, but sometimes you’re just lucky!

If you’d like to try your luck, we’re open to short weekend reciprocal exchanges with fellow cat-loving HomeExchangers in cities we’ve yet to visit. These should be accessible via low-cost airlines (Ryanair, WizzAir, Norwegian) from nearby airports (our Umeå airport only offers charter flights to international destinations, but Skellefteå and Stockholm are good options too). Currently, the list of such destinations includes:

  • Banja Luka

  • Belgrade

  • Budapest

  • Dubrovnik (Flights from April)

  • Gdansk

  • Helsinki

  • Krakow

  • Malta

  • Marrakesh

  • Riga

  • Sarajevo (flights from April)

  • Tallinn

  • Tirana

  • Warszaw

Our listing: Charming row house in the Tomtebo area

If interested, please message me on the HomeExchange site! Do not let the lack of availability discourage you, we have nothing planned but we can be quite spontaneous for short exchanges (under a week) as long as you’re willing to look after our cats!

Happy New Year!
