i like the image! sorry, i can't help but when you come to Germany there are lovely places to stay. greetings from germany
Can't help either with the NYC thing, but I live in Memphis if you'd ever like to swap! I don't have the NYC offerings BUT I do have the WORLDS AWAY headquarters just down the street. That always makes my day even after a trip to the big city.
every so often jo at cup of jo puts up her apartment for a bit of time. you should keep an eye on that!
and, yes, the movie is such a fun escape. now i want to watch it!
I am so sorry i don't live in NYC @ 45 mins away...by the beach...lots of Winter rentals, don't know about trade. I just had to post because Holiday is my favorite girly movie. I love it, everything about it...right down to the obscene amount of fabulous coats Cameron D's character sported in it! I Love, Love, Love the idea of it and I will keep my fingers crossed you find a great swap mate...along with a hot Jude Law-ish brother that stops on by! ;)

Have you tried vrbo.com? We used it when we moved to LA and wanted to try out a possible neighborhood.
thanks everyone for your advice!
and isn't it the best flic..yes jude you are hot and when you get in that tent with your girlies..it makes me swoon!
Only thing that would make that scene better is a Rickshaw tent!

OMG, how fun that you can even do this! You must keep us posted on how this unravels. I'm going to live vicariously through you:) Love The Holiday, I own it:)
Hi Rikshaw! I love your blog and have been following your posts for awhile now...I wanted to let you know that I did a post today on home exchanges, and I specifically wrote about a company that one of my friends has used and had great success with! When she first approached me about writing about this program the first thing I thought of was The Holiday too!
Here is a link if you are interested...please let me know if you have any questions. I'm sure my friend would be happy to speak with you if you would like more info!

Creativecaravan.net is a great site that allows artists/designers/etc to stay in new yorkers' apartments for as little as a week (i think) at a time while working in the city! I've never done it, but it may be worth a shot! good luck!
love that movie and the whole idea.
