About Us
We started TopMarks HomeSwap to help satisfy our desire to travel Australia as comfortably, economically and frequently as possible. We wanted to be able to travel in any economic climate, and HomeSwapping is the best way.
Our goal is to continually increase our membership base and to assist you every step of the way in making your HomeSwapping experience as enjoyable as possible. We welcome feedback, suggestions and new ideas. If you visit us frequently, you will notice our webpage evolving as we continue to make it easier to use.
We, my teacher husband and I, decided to start this business so that we could:
- see Australia while staying at home (we want to go everywhere);
- so that we could help other teachers with their holiday costs in the same way.
We decided to limit membership to teachers and education staff because:
- they are the only occupations that actually HAS to go on holidays in the peak holiday period and therefore have to pay peak accommodation rates;
- with the common occupation, there are often other elements of lifestyle in common, which makes Homeswapping a more comfortable experience.
If you click on the “Calendar” tab in the navigation menu, you will see that so many of the states holidays overlap. So the opportunity to swap with another teaching family or group is enormous.
We are currently the only HomeSwapping company to offer to coordinate One way Swaps and Multi way swaps. These are explained in “FAQ”.
We know you will embrace this style of holiday as much as we do. HomeSwapping will open up many more opportunities to you for travel in Australia.
We will expand to NZ soon as well.
