Can you think of any acceptable reason why to cancel an arranged home exchange last minute? I can think of two: Serious illness or death in the family or of a close person. All others seem to be avoidable with good planning.

It is a very difficult situation when your home exchange partner cancels the trip in the final preparation stages. This just happened to Karen and her husband who own a luxury apartment in Shanghai. As a result, they are now franticly trying to find a place in Dorset and surrounds to make up for their missed home exchange deal. They said they would accept home exchange offers in Southern England and would go as far as Paris.

This is your chance to experience the New York of China! Thank you for forwarding this last minute offer two your interested friends.
