The real cost of bland, short-term stays
Travel should not leave you more drained than when you started
Most short-term stays look affordable until you count everything they do not give you.
Generic rooms, noisy buildings, slow wifi, a kitchen you cannot use, and nothing around that fits how you want to live mean you end up spending more on food, coworking, taxis, and evenings out just to feel at home.
Per trip
- 1 week in an unfamiliar city
- + hotel or random short-term rental
- + daily coworking, restaurants, taxis
- + no real connection to people or place
= drained, disconnected, and over budget
Per year
- 3–4 trips per year
- + flights, stays, food, and coworking add up fast
= thousands spent with nothing that feels like home
More than a place to crash
Live well while you travel, not just pass through

FAQ
Before you join Sunmoon
What does it cost to join?
Joining Sunmoon is free. You can create a profile, browse cities, and see private home exchanges and members without a credit card.
What is a circle?
A circle is a private, invite-only group of members who trust each other. Home exchanges and listings inside a circle stay inside that circle rather than being published to the whole internet.
Do I have to own a home to join?
No. You can join, browse cities, follow members, and connect with the community without listing a home. Home exchanges are an option, not a requirement.
How are cities chosen?
Sunmoon compares 4900+ cities using data like air quality, climate, cost of living, and lifestyle signals so you can pick based on how you want to live, not just a name on a map.
Is this the same as a public short-term rental site?
No. Sunmoon focuses on private home exchanges inside trusted circles and on community, not on public bookings between strangers.
Who is Sunmoon for?
Remote workers, creators, wellness-minded travelers, and anyone who wants longer, healthier stays in cities that actually fit how they want to live.
Can I host without traveling?
Yes. Some members mostly host inside their circle and join Sunmoon for community and city discovery rather than for their own travel.
Why start with a free account?
Because it is a low-risk way to see what members, cities, and homes actually look like before deciding whether Sunmoon fits your lifestyle.
