One of the great things about HomeExchange is that accommodation costs are already taken care of — but destination choice can still make a big difference to your overall travel budget.
Some places are known for lower transport costs, affordable food, or plenty of free or low-cost activities, while others might surprise you once you start travelling like a local.
We’d love to hear from the community:
Which destinations have you found to be the most affordable — and why?
Was it cheap transport, low daily costs, great public transport, or simply lots of free things to do?
