Home swapping is a better way to travel. Not only does it take away the need to pay for travel accommodation, it opens the door to more meaningful, community driven travel experiences. In beautiful pockets of the world that hotels will never reach.
It is better for the environment compared to hotels - less energy consumed, less waste produced, less money given to big corporations.
There is also less "tourist overload" on smaller communities, as home swapping with locals simply moves them to your area while you visit theirs.
Best of all, some of the money you save from home swapping can be redirected into the communities you visit, supporting local business as well as environmental initiatives.
For a limited time, you can test drive home swapping with Swapsy, for free. To get started and experience a better way to travel, click here.
