Advantages of becoming a member
Why become a member of Home Around the World?
Travel the world for free. You may decide never to pay for hotel accommodation again.
Have fun. Home exchanges can include cars and bicycles, pets, club memberships and even friends.
A Home From Home. Sleep in a double bed with your partner, just as you do at home.
Live like a local. Don’t feel like a tourist. You’ll do more, see more and have lots more fun.
Save money. Shop for food as the locals do and save even more money on restaurant and laundry bills. Travel light!
Relax. Out late? Then sleep late in your own bed, just as you do at home. You don’t have to be up early for a hotel breakfast. Be in charge of your own time.
Make new gay friends. Friendships can arise naturally when you live as a local, not stay as a tourist. Get an insider’s knowledge of the local scene and enjoy being a tourist, whilst living like a local.
Experience. Live in another country and experience new cultures. Thinking about relocating? Gain an insider’s perspective on an area.
Security. Your home isn’t left vacant whilst you travel. Because you know your home is more secure, you’ll feel more secure.
Receive help and advice. We make it easy for you. You are guided step-by-step to making your first exchange. Read our Essential Guide.
Peace of Mind. Our sample agreement form to give you peace of mind when sharing your home with another member.
“We have used the Home Around the World site many times whilst travelling, and have always had positive experiences. Not only do we get to see new places, but we have met some wonderful people who hosted us in their homes. Highly recommended!”
