Sabbatical academic and extended stay home exchange
Global
has offered long term house swaps since 1998.
Just imagining the total bill for 30
hotel room nights is enough for you to reconsider taking your family on
an extended vacation. There is another alternative that can save
longer stay travelers a lot of money - It's called house
swapping. You stay in someone else’s home while they stay at
yours.
The concept of trading places has been around for
some time, but has gained popularity as an affordable way to travel the
world, up close and personal. You get a glimpse of how the family
you are swapping with lives every day.
Extended stay homeexchange and sabbatical house
swap travel is for academics, teachers
or anyone wishing a longer visit to an area for study, work or leisure.
University and college faculty academics, teachers, seniors, extended
stay vacation travelers, job seekers, professionals or people being transferred to a
temporary job are often those looking for a longer term exchange.

Maximize your opportunities for finding a home
exchange by
List your own home
- A listing is an advertisement. You
are telling others that you are interested in receiving home exchange
offers. You interest others and attract responses by what you say
in your listing. Describe some of the tourist and community
interests in your area followed by a little about your home and family.
If you have pets be sure to mention this as well. You can share
more information directly with those who respond to your listing
Add photos
- Include photos with your listing. You don't need a photo of a
sunset or luxury home to entice possible exchangers to answer your
listing, but photos go a long way towards attracting a steady stream of
home exchange inquiries.
Actively contact other members.
Besides listing your home, send out heaps of contact emails to others
wanting home exchanges. You are inquiring about the other members'
interest in an exchange with you. Be positive and tell then a bit
about your home, your family and community.
