Seniors home exchange

 

Many seniors around the country, or around the world share the common concerns about the high cost of travel and  vacations.

All too often, the cost of traveling gets in the way of having a good time. For years, smart vacationers have been taking advantage of a unique way to see the world — at significantly lower costs.
Exchanging homes involves swapping your home with someone else’s for an agreed upon period of time. It’s free accommodation for both parties, with each side still getting to enjoy the comforts of home.

Seniors unfamiliar with the process are often concerned that their home won't be suitable - perhaps too small, or in an unfashionable location.

These concerns are rarely obstacles to a successful swap; after all, home is home, and if you're happy with your place, chances are someone else will be, too. Home swappers can be singles, family groups or retirees. Teachers have embraced the concept more than any other profession, perhaps due to their holiday or work-exchange opportunities, and seniors often have the flexibility to take holidays at any time.

Holiday swapping is not purely for international travel. Many travelers happily swap homes around their own nation.

"Once bitten by the vacation home exchange bug, many people choose to swap homes in different locations every year. Some have made over 50 house swaps over several years.  Although the majority of home swappers trade once a year, it is possible to fit two or three swaps in a typical year. Even local trades are possible–and practical–for those who don’t want to travel far." Quote from Go Nomad

From a home exchange article featuring Global by Arthur Frommer, world renowned travel writer.

Because, when all is said and done, a home vacation exchange is the single most logical, reasonable, sensible, indeed brilliant, method of vacationing in travel today. Instead of leaving your home or apartment empty and unused during the time of your vacation, you derive a benefit from it, you treat it as an asset. You trade it temporarily for a home or apartment,  eliminating all costs of lodgings from your vacation budget.

There is also the option of exchanging homes for a relaxing weekend getaway to a nearby location. Since no money changes hands between the parties - you can have the a first class vacation anywhere in the world at no cost! It's a terrific way to see another  part of your country or the world.
