The documentation (info "(guix) Invoking guix system") phrases it this
way:
The example below creates a VM in which the user’s home directory
is accessible read-only, and where the ‘/exchange’ directory is a
read-write mapping of ‘$HOME/tmp’ on the host:
guix system vm my-config.scm \
--expose=$HOME --share=$HOME/tmp=/exchange
IOW, if you do “cd /exchange” in the guest, you should see the contents
of the host’s $HOME/tmp, read-write. Likewise, if $HOME = /foo in the
host, then /foo in the guest is a read-only view of the host’s /foo.
HTH!
