Laid Off? Time Off? Then Take Off and Holiday Like There's No Recession

LONDON, January 14 - If you've been laid off or have some time off then January 2010 could be
the right time to 'take off,' and holiday like there's no recession with
HomeExchange. Get your New Year off to a great start by exchanging your home
- it means that except for getting there, a holiday nearly anywhere in the
world doesn't have to cost any more than staying at home.

HomeExchangeNow.co.uk provides the perfect opportunity to take a long or
short haul holiday, or a weekend trip closer to home. With no hotel bills,
the benefit of free accommodation and the ability to exchange everything from
cars and bicycles to boats and skis, home exchange has become the best way to
experience the world like a local and to stay for free.

"If you've been laid off or have some time off home exchange is a very
economical way to travel." says Ed Kushins, HomeExchangeNow.co.uk President.
"It provides the perfect opportunity to escape the British winter, to take an
extended trip somewhere that has always been on your wish list but you've
never had time to visit, or to catch up with friends and family who live away
from home."

Home exchange means you get to stay in a comfortable home in a real
neighborhood - not a cramped hotel room - and to live like a real local New
Yorker, African, Hawaiian or Australian. It offers travelers that exclusive
chance to absorb the pleasures of a particular town or city, with the added
benefit of returning to the comfort of their exchange partners home.

"Even the most luxurious resorts can't match the home exchange experience
which is why our 30,000+ HomeExchangeNow.co.uk members feel like they're part
of an extended family," says Ed Kushins. "They can lose themselves in a world
of unlimited exchange opportunities in over 130 countries for only GBP5.95 a
month, with no additional fees."

Membership includes exclusive trip cancellation and supplementary
property coverage underwritten for HomeExchangeNow.co.uk(TM) by Lloyd's of
London. It provides Worldwide Coverage, family members/domestic partners of
the exchange party are eligible and unlimited exchanges can be taken per year
at no additional charge.
