I have had a few people reach out recently asking about how we made a full time travel life happen.

We have been traveling full time for over 7 years now. But we didn’t always have the income that we have now.

For the first few years of our Freedom Lifestyle we used house sitting to travel around the globe.

We saved so much money by not having to pay for accommodation for several years! (But we didn’t have to live in hostels or couch-surf…. we lived in beach front homes, multi million dollar estates, gorgeous jungle homes in Costa Rica…. and the list goes on)

We did back to back house sits (30+ sits in total) all over the globe including the Caribbean, Asia, Europe, North America, South America and everywhere in between!

We were very successful in this area, sometimes beating hundreds of applicants to win extraordinary house sits (like 2 months in a massive house in Barbados, or 2 months in a huge waterfront estate in Florida)

I published a book on house sitting back in 2014 (Michael and I also used house sitting as a way to save money when we were building our home back in 2000, so our experience goes back almost 20 years). People loved the book and I got all sorts of positive feedback from it.

So, when I got a 3rd email from someone asking me about how we got started, it got me thinking about house sitting and how much it changed our lives… and how it allowed us to travel in luxury before we had an income to pay for it!

So what I want to know is….

Do you guys want to learn how Michael and I became successful house sitters, and how you can do the same?

I'm thinking about putting together a cheap course on exactly how to travel the world with house sitting, and including all the checklists, forms, agreements, and everything else we used to run a successful house sitting business.

Is this something you might be interested in?

If I get enough interest then I’ll put something together for you guys 🙂
