We started using TrustedHousesitters when we began travelling as a family five years ago.
After twenty-seven housesits and a wealth of wonderful travel memories, I thought it was finally time to share an honest review of Trusted Housesitters.
It’d be rude not to.
Why write a post on the pros and cons of housesitting?
Because I wanted to make it crystal clear that although housesitting is an incredible way to see the world for free (it is most certainly how WE afford to travel the world), it isn’t always a walk in the park.
Far from it.
Housesitting is more like one of those jogs you do when you realise your jeans no longer fit. The jog that gets you all sweaty and puffy but feels amazing afterwards.
New York City in winter is cold. Bitingly cold! So, if you’re taking your trip in the fall or winter and are wondering what to wear to New York City so you’ll look gorgeous and stylish while remaining warm, snug and dry, then look no further.
I have you covered. Up.
Here are 20 must-have clothing items for your winter trip to New York City:
“Eat, Pray, Love” by Elizabeth Gilbert captured the hearts of many with its soul-searching journey across Italy, India, and Indonesia. If you’re a woman seeking a similar travel adventure and yearning to indulge in the beauty of the world, you’re in luck!
I have for you three remarkable books that will not only transport you to enchanting parts of the world but most certainly (without a doubt) bring on a serious case of wanderlust. These books aren’t just about travel; they are about families and life and exploring out-of-the-box adventures.
Get ready to take a journey of self-discovery and cultural exploration, and experience the joy of embracing new experiences. Grab your passport, and let’s embark on a literary escapade!
Never. Not in my wildest dreams did I think that I would EVER be sharing what I’m about to share with you in this week’s podcast.

Five years ago, Brian and I left everything behind (including a full-time job with a regular wage) to take our family (two teenage kids), travelling around the world for a year.
We visited almost thirty countries, including Japan, India, Sri Lanka, America, Vietnam, Thailand, Hong Kong and many countries in Europe. Our budget was 100 NZD (approx $70) a day.
Because we were visiting places we had never been to before, we made sure to do plenty of research beforehand.
Sadly, lots (most) of the information we found online turned out to be a load of codswallop. Fearmongering rubbish.
Today, because Liz is almost ready to release “The TravelBog Diaries: One Woman’s wickedly funny confessions of surviving family world travel” (HURRAY!!!), we thought it would be fun to stay on the travel theme and share some of those Un-truths with you. Let you know that not everything you read online about destinations is believable and inspire you to step out and explore these countries yourself!!
Enjoy!
I’m Liz, and this is my family.
I do Travel. I do Wine. I do being a mum to big kids. Sometimes I do all three at the same time.
I don’t do hormones. Or looking perfect for Instagram. Or dieting.
