Live Ins
A number of employers offer live in accommodation as part of the deal. Live in's are not uncommon with childcare, domestic work, and barwork positions.
One thing to note is that live-in accommodation is rarely an 'extra' the actual pay received will generally be low, although other features such as the use of a car and/or some free meals may be included in your package.
The London Pub Company offers live-in bar positions. Check out their website at www.londonpub.co.nz.
Hospitality and related live-in positions can also be arranged by the people at www.livein-jobs.co.uk.
Home Exchanges
Home exchange networks have operated for a number of years, and typically help to co-ordinate house swaps between vacationers or long term travellers from different countries. This is of course a great way to save on accommodation expenses and to live in a 'proper home', but of course you must entrust your home to strangers as part of the deal.
