"I have four kids and I got tired of spendÂing 70% of my travÂel budÂget on hotels or Airbnb’s! I’ve calÂcuÂlatÂed that some of my trips have been in the range of ÂŁ10,000 per trip, but instead I’m payÂing ÂŁ0 because we’re using Love Home Swap. Because of this savÂing, we get to travÂel quite a lot – I tend to travÂel three times more than most of my friends, pureÂly because of home swapping.”
"AnothÂer great thing is that you’re not in as much of a hurÂry as when you’re stayÂing at an expenÂsive hotel for a short time. On a home swap you can stay for three weeks instead of just five or ten days, so you can be much more relaxed. You’re not rushÂing to buy tickÂets for an attracÂtion every day like you do in a hotel. I can just wake up and say: ​“Oh, the weathÂer is nice today, why don’t we try doing that?”
Hands up if you've managed to save money through home swapping! 🙋
