One budget-friendly way to explore every corner of the globe is to buy a timeshare. Because of their inherent flexibility, these vacation properties make it possible to travel to nearly any locale you can dream of. Provided that your resort is affiliated with an exchange company like RCI, you can secure lodging anywhere from Africa to New Zealand for a fraction of the cost of renting a hotel. The key to their money-saving benefits is the shared ownership that timeshares afford.
