Traveler Reveals Secret to Month-Long Stays in New York Without Accommodation Costs

New York, NY – A French content creator, Lauriane Riquet, has unveiled her preferred method for experiencing global travel without the burden of high accommodation costs. Riquet, known as 'Lauriane 🌞' on social media, shared her insights from a recent month-long stay in New York City, where she utilized the HomeExchange application to secure her lodging. Riquet explained that her primary expenses during her New York visit were limited to flights and daily necessities, attributing significant savings to the home exchange model. "Given the price of accommodation here, there's no way I could pay for all that for a month," she stated in her video, highlighting the financial viability of her approach. She further elaborated on the HomeExchange system, which allows users to either directly swap their homes with others or earn points by hosting, which can then be redeemed for stays elsewhere. For Riquet, the appeal of home exchange extends beyond cost savings. She noted a preference for staying in apartments or houses over hotels, particularly for longer trips. "Especially when I stay for a long time, it allows me to really create a routine in the new city I'm in," she explained, detailing how it enables her to engage in local activities like attending sports classes and grocery shopping, fostering a more immersive travel experience.
