Hey fellow wanderers and adventure seekers! Today, I want to let you in on a little secret that has completely transformed my life: house sitting as a full-time digital nomad. 🏠✈️
As someone who thrives on exploring new places and embracing different cultures, being tied down to a single location was never my cup of tea. So, I set out on a mission to find a way to travel the world while still maintaining a steady income and saving money on rent. And that's when I stumbled upon the amazing world of house sitting through TrustedHousesitters.com
How Trusted House Sitters Works
Trusted House sitters is a platform that connects homeowners who need their homes looked after with responsible and trustworthy house sitters like you and me. It's a win-win situation: homeowners get peace of mind knowing their homes and pets are well cared for while they're away, and house sitters get to enjoy free accommodation in exchange for their services.
My House Sitting Adventures
Since I started house sitting, I've had the incredible opportunity to explore some truly amazing places, including Wales, England, Scotland, California, Washington, and Oregon. With Trusted Housesitters, the options are endless! Since I started in January 2023, I have done 11 sits through this site.
My House Sitting "Hack"
Here's a little trick I've learned along the way: I prefer to do minimum one-week stays, with three weeks being the most ideal for me. This allows me to truly settle into a new place, explore the surroundings at my own pace, and fully immerse myself in the local culture. For some people, 1 week is not enough- and that's the beauty of Trusted House Sitters! You can do as short as 1 night, to some stays as long as 3 months.
My Portable Office
Now, let's talk about work. As a full-time digital nomad, having a dedicated workspace is crucial for staying productive while on the road. That's why I always look for house sits that provide a dedicated work space. My portable office consists of a thinkpad laptop, thinkvision portable monitor, keyboard, and wireless mouse, allowing me to work efficiently from anywhere in the world.
Why You Should Consider House Sitting
House sitting has completely transformed the way I travel. Not only do I get to explore new destinations and immerse myself in different cultures, but I also save a ton of money on accommodation costs. Plus, I get to cuddle adorable pets along the way – it's a win-win!
So, if you're dreaming of a life of full-time travel but don't know where to start, I highly recommend giving house sitting a try. With TrustedHousesitters, the world is truly your oyster!
