Long term and sabbatical home exchange is for academics or anyone wishing a longer visit to an area for study, work or leisure. University and college faculty academics, teachers on a teaching exchange, seniors, extended vacation travelers, job seekers or people being transferred to a temporary job are often those looking for a longer term exchange.

Weekend home exchange There is also the option of exchanging homes for a relaxing weekend getaway to a nearby location. Weekend swaps are for those that just want a short stay, perhaps from 1 to 3 or 4 days.
A
home exchange or house swap is - you stay at my place while I stay at
yours. By swapping homes for a vacation, two families,
from different parts of the area you live in, from other regions of your
country, or the world
- agree to exchange homes for a vacation or holiday. Since no money changes hands between the parties -
you can have the a first class vacation anywhere in the world and free
home accommodation!
Is it safe to trade your home and personal space with a perfect stranger? About as safe as staying in a hotel owned by someone you don't know. Remember that your home exchange counterpart is also taking a risk by staying in your home, so instances in which the arrangement goes bad are few and far between. Historically, complaints are rare.
Many travelers join Global thinking the biggest benefit will be the money they save. This is most certainly realized with savings of hundreds to thousands of dollars on hotels, vehicles and meals. After swapping homes most will say that the greatest benefits are experiencing an area like a local, not a tourist and having the comfort of being in a multi room home rather than a cramped hotel room. Families with children love the spaciousness of an exchange house.
