I do not live in a tourist area. Can I still exchange my home?

It is true that living in a popular area puts you at an advantage, but many members are keen to avoid touristy areas and go where the locals go. Provide plenty of information to potential exchange partners about your local attractions. Include distances between nearby cities, airports, and well-known attractions.
