And of course we're not alone!Â
In fact
thousands of people globally, of all nationalities, backgrounds and ages,
are using house sitting to travel the world.Â
Some as one-off vacations, many mix it with other travel experiences, and a
handful like us, do it full-time. Â
However, it's also important to remember house sitting is not a 'free' holiday.Â
Â
House sitting is an exchange of services - you look after someone’s home and
their pets (if they have them), and in return you enjoy free accommodation and utilities, and often use of their vehicle. Â
House Sitting does come with responsibilities, and therefore is not for everyone.
If you like free spirited travel where you can move around constantly or be out
sight-seeing all day, then you could consider house sitting as a great addition to
your travel mix instead. A time to slow down and really get to know a place.
House sitting is all about slower paced immersion travel into cultures and communities, experiencing the joy of getting to know the locals, having time to
learn a new language or write that illusive book, combined of course with the love
and fun of awesome pets.
If you are ready to travel the world full-time or part-time with house sitting,
then the Academy is ready to make it a reality.
