Home sharing an investment property

Anyone heard of using an investment property as a home share for international travel? Looking to take a year or two off and travel internationally extensively. Our personal home would not be a good candidate to use as a home trade where you trade a week at your house for a week at someone else's in another country. 

Was thinking about buying a town home in a local resort town like Breckenridge or someplace else in the mountains and just using that. At then end of the 2 years I could either keep it and use it as a rental or just sell it likely for a quick profit. Economically what I'd be looking at is 2 years of free places to stay around the world as we traveled frequently.

Anybody ever heard of someone doing this? I'm just looking into this home trading thing so don't know too much about it.
