Stay in homes anywhere in the world. Websites connect you with homeowners who are going away on holiday.

Stay for a weekend or for months -- at no cost.

Instructors Josie Schneider and Conrad Knutsan have ten years of house sitting experience under their belts and enjoy sharing that knowledge with others in hopes they will gain an understanding of the beauty of this way of traveling farther, for longer than you ever dreamed possible. In this course for those 50 and over, earn the nuts and bolts of making house sitting happen for you. We’ve already made the mistakes so that you don’t have to. Josie and Conrad’s website is www.housesittingtravel.com
