Home Exchange is Your Key to Affordable Travel

Have you looked at the break-down of your travel budget? Approximately 45%-60% of your total travel expenses are spent on accommodations. Considering a reasonable cost of $200 to $550 per night for a hotel room, for a week this adds up to between $1,400 to $3,850 exclusive of taxes, parking and other hotel charges. If traveling with more than two people, then the total cost could double or even triple depending on the number of rooms you need. This high cost of accommodations is what keeps many people from following their dreams of seeing the world. The VacationExchange Network eliminates this problem forever. With VEN, the cost of traveling is less than a one or two day stay at a hotel.

Home swaps also give you the advantage of saving on restaurant charges which can save you anywhere from $40 to $200 per meal depending on the number in your party Providing even more value to your home swap, some exchanges come with beach passes, museum passes, discount attraction tickets, etc.

When you exchange your home for a vacation, you are not only reducing the expenses of traveling, but you are also enjoying the added convenience of being in a home away from home. A home offers much more in the way of amenities than a hotel room and at a lower cost. Enjoy the benefits of having a kitchen, washer/dryers, lots of space and several rooms at your disposal. Jn addition, you also get the feel of the place by living like a local rather than a tourist.
