In these hard economic times, everyone is looking for ways to save
money. Home Exchange Vacations fit that criteria beautifully. Actually,
home exchange has been around for more than fifty years and had
already been growing steadily in popularity, but the recent economic
downturn has been the catalyst that suddenly has countless thousands
of families seeing it as a means of affordable vacationing.

In its infancy, home exchange attracted people looking for a more eco-
friendly means of vacationing. They viewed the concrete hotels springing
up to create “resorts” all over the world as monstrosities and embraced
home exchanging as the “green” alternative.

Nowadays, more and more people are seeing it as an extremely affordable
vacation alternative and even the most hardened critics are discovering that
their objections hold little substance. After all, who doesn't want to vacation
like a millionaire and never pay a penny in accommodation costs?
