Hey Friends,

Nothing new or crazy here. Julia is halfway through her Worldpackers exchange in Italy and Jess is working hard in England.

Jess is actually doing a lot of pet sitting in the coming weeks, as a favor to friends but also as a change of scenery.

Speaking of pet sitting, we wanted to remind you about (and share with our new subscribers) our pet and house sitting guide.​

We've done over 15 house sits around the world, so we know what we're talking about when it comes to being chosen in a sea of applicants.

If housesitting sounds like your kind of thing and you're looking for a chance to see new places without paying for accommodation, you can download our free guide here.​

This may sound super obvious, but when we know we’re visiting somewhere, we literally just zoom in on Google Maps and click on random places. This is how we found: Loch Inver Larder while driving the NC500 in Scotland (best rhubarb pie of our lives) Ammuccamu Milazzo in...

Hi Reader, We’re back together in England and have officially made it to Dorset, where we’re spending some much awaited quality time together and enjoying staying in a cute coastal town for nearly a week. Which brings us to something we’ve been thinking (and writing) about a lot lately: settling down 🤭😮🤯. OBVIOUSLY it's not like we’re never going to travel again. We’re literally on a trip right now. But we do want things like a nice espresso machine, and a good vacuum, and cool rugs. Things...

Hello Dear Readers, Julia here. Tomorrow is a very exciting day: I’m flying back to England and can stay for good (actually, until I extend my visa in 2.5 years)! To catch you back up on my life: The situation: I left England in mid May because my six month tourist visa was ending. The problem: I couldn’t apply for my Partner Visa until late August and didn’t want to be long distance with Jess on separate continents for 5 months. The solution: I stayed in Europe until the end of July doing...
