City Swap?

I've been thinking about this for a while now. There are so many cool cities to explore. I think it would be great to swap places for a vacation with other members on here that live in awesome cities. Would be a great way to save money and live like a local on vacation.

I live in Vancouver, Canada. Anybody interested in a swap sometime?

(Calling all New Yorkers and Chicagoans)

What city would you want to swap with just to live the local life?

After the pandemic of course.

This is cool. I'll move it to the city issues forum, more people discussing city issues there.

^ Cool, thanks!

Just thinking people on this forum might be more interested in a vacation somewhere cool to live like a local.

I'm up to go anywhere. I can work remotely so I've been thinking about this for a while.

I might need a place to live in Van again for a few months next spring, I could trade you for a place to live in either Sherbrooke QC, or the Quebec City area, or the Space Coast of Florida (in a house ~10-15 minutes from the Atlantic beaches). Or any combination of those.

I'm actually serious, the only thing is I don't yet know for sure we'll get awarded the following phase of this project.
