If you have read our book or are a follower of this blog or Facebook page, you likely know that one of our favorite ways to travel for free is by doing home exchanges.
Really, it’s the best of all worlds – you get FREE accommodations by swapping homes when you travel, but you also have the opportunity to stay in some really cool houses, apartments, even unusual homes like houseboats or lighthouses or Airstream trailers. With amenities like kitchens that let you save even more money by fixing meals at home. And, you get to stay and experience the place like a local, in a neighborhood, rather than a generic hotel.
By far our favorite website for swapping places is HomeExchange.com, which we have used for almost all of our exchanges. And now, it’s your chance to WIN a FREE one year membership to HomeExchange.com!
To enter, do one (or all) of the three things below. You have until midnight CST on December 23 to enter; at that time we will randomly select a winner of our gift card for a 12-Month Membership. You will be entered in the drawing 3 times if you do all 3 things. Thanks, good luck, and happy travels!

How to Travel for Free 
I exchanged my home in Budapest with someone else’s home in Palm Springs, and it worked out fantastic for the both of us.
