In reply to Unta. Yeah, trying new ways to travel may at first be a bit strange or even scary. But luckily most options out there like House Swapping have been tried & tested by many before. So that is why we love how we found this site amid a bunch of Digital Nomad's tools for lodging.

I have to admit that for many years this way of searching for accommodation (home exchange, etc.) has really intrigued me. I don’t know why I never dared to try. I will research Holiday Swap as well.

In reply to Tami Wilcox. Agreed. There is nothing better than saving $$ but I love how you can live like a local and get a bit more of a "real" experience.

It’s so smart to travel this way. Saves money and gives you an insider’s edge when visiting new areas.

In reply to Ramil Hinolan. Hey Ramil, So I think Home Swapping has been around for a while but I dont think it had an official site to help keep it organized or safe. So this site definitely has organized it better for digital nomads & regular travelers looking for more of an authentic experience.

This sounds pretty good. Home swapping is a new idea. I will surely check Home Swap for our next travel adventure.

In reply to Ryan Biddulph. Totally agree! So many people are people of habit. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it is nice to stay at a nice hotel amid all the noise and fun! But if you are looking for a different or perhaps a longer experience in a new place, then Home Swapping is a great alternative for travelers & digital nomads alike!

What a cool idea. More of the people we house sit for seem interested in not only house sitting but also home swapping. One, it is a cool way to see the world for free, and two, it rockets people outside of their comfort zone into freedom. Most homeowners become creatures of habit, patterns and all that comfy stuff that needs to be shattered here and there, for awakening the mind. Swapping or sitting does that. Take it from a homeless full time digital nomad LOL 🙂 Excellent post here.

In reply to Agnes. Ooh, I bet you can easily get some amazing Holiday Swaps with an apartment in Mexico especially for those "Snow birds" looking for a warm escape! Heck, we may have to list our home in New Orleans and Swap with you because we have like 10 different Bucket List Items in various parts of Mexico! Is your place free during Dia de los Muertos?

In reply to Sage Scott. Like we said to Jen, I guess it cant hurt to try right? For example, Darcee & I have stayed in some nice suburbs in Bangkok, Edinburgh, London, and Port of Spain Tobago to name a few places because it saved me $100s of dollars & public transportation was super simple & cheap! In fact we stayed in suburb called Buckinghamshire that was 45 minutes from Oxford because it was free for us and close to Stonehenge, the Magna Carta in Salisbury, and of course the famous University. So who knows.

How awesome is this? Such a great idea! My only concern is if anyone would want to come stay in my house in the suburbs of Kansas City compared to the places I want to visit!

I love this idea of swapping houses for holidays, especially now, as I have an apartment in Mexico. I have to figure out this topic in detail. It’s a great article with lots of tips. Holiday Swap seems to be a great website, easy to use.
