Looks interesting BUT WHO WOULD TRUST OTHER PEOPLE IN THIER HOUSE??

 

too bad i don't have to offer anything in exchange lol, even if i have i am not sure i would let complete strangers to move in

 

Who would trust other people in their house?

...the same crazy people who would offer up THEIR house as well! XD

 

WOW one of the houses listed is about half a KM from my flat.

 

Is it any good??

 

A family friend used to do something simular, they swapped guestrooms with people, granted they wernt exchanged completely but it saved her and the familys who stopped a shitload in hotel bills on their world travels.

 

sounds lie an awesome way to travel on the cheap....but there is the trust thingy tho....if i could get over that then id go for it...

 

At first, I thought this was a great idea.

But then I remembered

Bed bugs are on the rise from international travelers. You'll be less likely to get them while traveling if you borrow a house, but you'll be more likely to get them by lending your house... Real pain to remove.

If everyone on the system never uses hotels it's not a problem, but chances are good most of them hotel sometimes and borrow other times.
