About Me
Hi, I’m Lisa!
I left a corporate job in the UK in 2015 and enjoyed an epic self-driven road trip around Australia before exploring Sydney from top to bottom for over three years by house sitting!
I now live in Sydney’s beautiful Northern Beaches and want my travel and migration guides to inspire you to travel more and plan your holiday, road trip or big move Down Under.

House Sitting
House sitting saved me over $50k in rent and travel accommodation costs during my first few years in Australia. When I moved to Sydney long term, I switched to paid house sitting and registered my own business. I still take on short, local house sits near my home now!
To learn more about staying in locals’ homes for free while they’re on holiday (in return for looking after their pets), or to find out how to book a house sitter, take a look at my featured guides below. To see all my guides on house sitting, click the button.
