"Forget hotels -- swap your loft!"
OK, so your life is just so fab, it's almost boring. You've got your dream job in the most amazing city with the most incredible social life and the best partner you could ask for, yet somehow you're still not satisfied. It's time to head from your own chic loft to the next!
That's what LoftSwaps.com is all about! The free service lets you upload photos of your loft, post contact info and availability dates. Find yourself staying in the most gorgeous loft apartments from the hip streets of San Francisco to trendy Greenwich, Soho or Soma. How about a high street London loft in Kensington or Nottinghill? Ooh lala! But of course you'd prefer a romantic Parisian loft in the Bastille, non?
Why check into a pricey, stuffy, uncomfortable hotel when you could live in the comforts of a gorgeous loft?
