I'm one of the co-founders of hoppswap.com — a home swapping platform matching people through their shared interests and lifestyle.
I'm looking for some feedback. Home swapping isn't new but the awareness of the concept is still early days. 3 in 10 are aware of it globally, yet 1 in 10 actually make use of it according to the data.
There seems to be a pull into 'living like a local' over the last few year as well as being able to save costs through swapping homes.
I'd be interested in hearing how many people would consider swapping homes as a means to travel through the comments below. Those that have already, those that have thought of doing it but haven't and those who have never heard of it!
👉 Yes or No and the reason behind it........Thank You!
Yes, but mostly when it fits around existing bookings.
What we are noticing is that hosts are far more open to the idea when it revolves around nights that would have stayed empty anyway, rather than feeling like they are giving something up. That shift seems to remove a lot of hesitation.
