A Home Exchange Dream Comes True – A Follow Up
Back on July 17th I published a post titled “A Home Exchange Dream Comes True” referenced an emailed account I’d received from long time Member 1688.
At the time I was enchanted by the member’s story, then a few days ago I received another email from the same member and her latest news was bittersweet. I’ll let her email tell its own story …
I recently added a story to the blog “A Home exchange dream comes true”, and promised to do a follow up message.
Well this will be short but I did want to say that our first home exchange was brilliant. We met some really lovely people and I hope that we will remain friends for a very long time. We did get caught with the Zoom airlines failure and had to rearrange to get home, but our hosts were very accommodating and offered us the use of their house for as long as we wanted.
Unfortunately my husband died suddenly one week after our return. None the less I will treasure the last holiday that we spent together and look often at those last wonderful photos of him. I hope to be able to continue exchanging but time will tell.
What can I say, other than to offer our true condolences. Now she’s done a home exchange and been left with such wonderful memories, I hope she will decide to venture to try again. Maybe making new memories will add another dimension to the memorial she has of her husband.
