If we’ve heard it once, we’ve heard it a thousand times: How do you afford to travel the world? Are you rich? How do you afford to keep taking so much time off to travel?
Why haven’t you got a proper job?
I cannot wait to share this episode with you!
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine that we would be a couple who could say, ‘We have location-independent jobs and get paid while travelling the world’.
Never.
Yet it seems that’s exactly what we’re doing.

Travelling in Europe is not cheap. I know. A few years ago, we spent three months backpacking around the continent with our two teenage kids as part of our year-long escape from normal life world adventure.
Arriving in Europe after being in Asia was a bit of a shocker, especially on the old budget.
That’s why I’m so glad we discovered the (relatively unknown) travel hack that travellers swear by. Housesitting.
We had done a tour of housesitting in New Zealand, but the real savings (and fun) were to be had when we went to Italy, the United Kingdom, France, Greece, Spain…all over Europe, we have been able to travel for free by housesitting.
We have never looked back, and neither will you.
Not only will house and pet sitting save you $$$’s, but you get to relax and slow down (and, more importantly,) drink delicious wine from the terraces of beautiful properties.
Win, win.
