Lucky Brit Combines Dream World Cup Job With Stay-for-FREE HomeExchange
By Homeexchangenow.co.uk, PRNESunday, June 6, 2010
LONDON, June 7, 2010 - A lucky Brit has taken the opportunity of combining a dream six-week
World Cup job in South Africa with HomeExchange - the "you stay at my home
while I stay at yours" concept. The twelve-week 'double' exchange starts in
June and July with six weeks working at the World Cup followed by another six
weeks sightseeing around South Africa as soon as the event is over.
"It's a great concept", says HomeExchangeNow.co.uk Member Chris. "It will
be an epic trip, six weeks working followed by another six weeks in South
Africa when my family come out to join me, staying at three houses in
KwaZulu-Natal and Kruger. The idea of such a trip would simply be out of
reach for us without exchanging."
With no hotel bills, the benefit of free accommodation and the ability to
exchange everything from cars and bicycles to boats and skis, HomeExchange
provides the perfect opportunity to get right into the soccer action, to
experience the thrill of seeing the Games live, while avoiding crowded hotels
and inflated prices.
It has become the best way to experience the world like a local and to
stay for free. 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.
"In 2012 the Olympics come to London," says Chris. "As our home is close
to the Olympic rowing and canoeing lake near Windsor what better place for
someone to base themselves for this huge global sporting event."
Members simply log on, create their listing with photos and a
description, choose a location they want to visit, and begin coordinating an
exchange with other members across the globe for only GBP5.95 a month, with
no additional fees.
Over 100,000 successful HomeExchanges were completed last year, and the
number of enthusiastic swappers continues to grow," says Ed Kushins,
HomeExchangeNow.co.uk President. "It's a great way to see a sporting event or
to visit friends and family abroad."
HomeExchangeNow.co.uk is the global leader in home exchanging with
36,000+ listings in over 130 countries. Membership includes exclusive free
trip cancellation underwritten for HomeExchangeNow.co.uk(TM) by Lloyd's of
London. Unlimited exchanges can be taken with no additional charges of any
kind. See: www.homeexchangenow.co.uk/web/38/text/events_exchanges.html
