Swapli
Home Exchange Community
for Israelis Worldwide
Imagine for a moment,
A week in Paris, a month in Greece, a vacation in Tel Aviv, the Galilee, or Amsterdam...
In a real home with coffee in the kitchen
and books that say good morning in Hebrew.
What is Swapli?
Swapli is a closed community of Israelis worldwide who host each other in their homes and enjoy vacations without paying for accommodation.
We aspire to a world where tens of thousands of people host each other and enjoy freedom of movement around the globe. This is a model that brings joy, freedom, community, and brotherhood to participants' lives, and brings back a human and warm factor to a world that is becoming increasingly alienated.
Security & Trust
A closed Israeli community platform with identity verification and a mutual feedback system ensuring proper and responsible behavior as hosts and guests.
Easy & Fast Exchange
Smart search system enabling finding matches by parameters such as destination, vacation type (urban or nature), number of guests, and more.
Savings
For the price of one night in a hotel, you open the possibility for weeks and months of exchanges, leaving the money for experiences.
The platform fosters warm human communication between people, and provides space for personal local recommendations from hosts - like the secret beach, the little restaurant only locals know, and more.
We aspire to create a community of Israelis worldwide who are there for each other. For hosting, recommendations, and social gatherings.

Our Story

Hey there,
We are Michal and Daniel, the founders of Swapli, an Israeli couple living in Amsterdam for several years with our wonderful daughters. The idea to create Swapli was born from life itself—from who we are, our values, and our life experience.
In recent years, we increasingly chose vacations where we exchanged homes with Israelis and families from different countries, from Greece to Portugal. Each time we learned how much value there is in this experience: not just financial savings, but human connection, trust, and learning about other cultures through someone else's home. Each time we realized that this experience is much more than a technical or economic solution.
But finding a suitable exchange isn't always easy and mainly requires investing a lot of time and energy. After hours of searching in Facebook groups, in the mess of posts and comments, we understood how much we were missing an organized place to search for home exchanges by location, dates, or preferred destination.
And then one morning the idea sprouted to create such a community of Israelis for home exchange around the world—and Swapli was born.
