HouseCarers.com?

I like adventure, at least in  theory - I like new things, decisions on the fly, and most of all, doing things that other people wont (or can't) do.   Now, Im married and I've settled down, which cuts down on my adventures quite a bit, but I try to keep my eye out for interesting opportunities. 

Enter Housecarers.com.  Apparently (I say that because I just found out about this a few minutes ago, and have had no experience with it myself) the deal is this - people who need housesitting for anywhere from a few days to a few months list their homes on the site - and you (as the vagabond) get to travel to whatever fantastic place their house happens to be in and stay for a while.  They get free peace of mind, you get free housing.  Sounds like an excellent deal.

Memberships run from a limited free to an inexpensive $45/year.  No get out there and housesit someplace exciting.

Thanks for Visiting!
