Hello, Bonjour, Hola, Ciao, Guten Tag - No Matter How You Say It, We Can Help You Understand...

House swap is the ideal way to experience the day-to-day life of different cultures around the world.  Just as homes differ, so do their owners and the languages they speak.  Things can get "lost in translation" when you and your swapping partner speak different languages so RoofSwap offers our members a unique translation service to assist in completing your swap.  RoofSwap recommends speaking to your home swap partner at least once prior to finalizing the details of your exchange.  Talking over the phone allows both parties to “get to know each other” and discuss together details regarding home amenities or special instructions.  

RoofSwap is pleased to offer its members a dedicated service to meet their translation needs through a partnership with Language Line Services. The service allows you to have a professional translator on a conference call with you and your swap partner to help you to communicate and finalize the house swap details.

With Language Line Services members can: 

  • Access 24/7 professional translators in more than 170 languages
  • Receive a discounted rate of $3.99 per minute, including all translation services and international calling rates
  • Conduct conversations with assured confidentiality
  • Create a personal account using RoofSwap's dedicated account code

Using our translation services is easy, just follow these steps:

  • Access your personalized RoofSwap / Language Line Account at http://www.languagelineaffiliates.com/langline_home.html?kbid=2016
