The Home Exchange - Swap Homes for Vacation

Question: Would you like to trade homes with somebody for your next vacation, like Kate Winslet's character in the movie The Holiday? It's called a home exchange and you can learn all about it on this website!

A home exchange takes place when two people agree to swap homes for an agreed-upon period of time. The idea is to temporarily exchange homes with somebody who lives in a location in which you would like to take a vacation.

As a result of the swap, both parties get to use a "vacation home" for free — instead of renting a home for their vacation, they will use the home of the person they swapped with!

In truth, the concept of the home exchange is not new. People have been trading homes for vacation purposes for many years. But the concept has become a lot more popular in recent years. There are two reasons for this — the Internet and the media.

The Internet makes vacation home exchanges much easier. Today there are websites that offer exchange services for vacationers (such as the website below). There has also been a lot more media coverage of vacation home swapping, and it has been the subject of such films as The Holiday.
