BE1010268Alfredo and Georgina are two lovely people. They picked us up from the airport in Porto and welcomed us personally in their flat in Maya, Porto. We had a wonderfull stay in the flat (8th floor with a nice view on Maya) and went to discover Porto and the north of Portugal for almost 3 weeks. A perfect home exchange for us!

IE1242It was a wonderful exchange! Maya is a nice, modern town with plenty of nice restaurants and easy access to Porto itself. The apartment was ideal for us (a couple).
Alfredo was a wonderful host, and everything was well-prepared and extremely convenient.
