With the low airfares you may be considering a vacation abroad. However the cost of any vacation is more than the tickets to get there. You have to consider accommodation costs, food, local transport, incidentals and gifts.

What may have started as an opportunity for the trip of your lifetime now becomes a task in stretching the dollar.

Well you can consider reducing your cost by staying for free. Yes free!

These days many people are house swapping as an option to reduce accommodation and eating costs while on vacation. You can get information on houses available from HomeExchange.com which currently has over 27,000 listings.

So the next time you want to head off on vacation, consider swapping your empty home with another family. You both win from the exchange by reducing the largest expense – your accomodation.
