Survey Reveals Americans’ Travel Bucket Lists

A new survey by Love Home Swap reveals Americans’ travel bucket lists. According to the survey, more than three-fourths of Americans have a travel bucket list, but only 3 percent visited all the destinations on their list, with cost the top barrier.

The top countries on Americans’ travel bucket lists are Japan, Finland, Thailand, Portugal and Argentina. Unfortunately, about 45 percent are unlikely to visit even one of the destinations on their bucket lists. Other than cost, barriers include not having someone to travel with, not enough travel knowledge and indecisiveness when it comes to booking a trip.

“At Love Home Swap, we’re committed to helping provide our members with unique vacations for a fraction of the cost of traditional accommodations,” said Ben Wosskow, managing director, Love Home Swap. “Our research shows that people want to live like locals when they travel. With thousands of inspiring properties around the world ripe for swapping, we can help them experience a new place for a whole lot less without having to forgo any of their usual home comforts.”

The study also showed only 4 percent have home swapped, though 14 percent plan to do so in the future. One-fifth are nervous about home swapping and a little more than one-third aren’t interested in a home swap.
