Teacher, translator, tourguide.
We are an Australian-Italian family and like to travel for a good 4-6 weeks on a long trip once a year or so. We are genuine animal lovers and have our own cat. We would like to find places to stay on our travels and reciprocally find people to mind our cat at our place in the United Kingdom. We would treat your place as we expect you to treat ours (ie, well). We can partially work from "home" on the road. We have housesat among friends/relatives/friends-of-friends a number of times and have some experience with animals/dwellings with special needs. We have lived in a number of different countries and love travel and new experiences, and believe contrast vital to our kids' perspective.

Caen, France - August 2024
I really enjoyed my staying at Valentina and Gabriel'. Grotti is a really nice cat. Very shy and fearful at first, she came to me and we had a nice time together. The accommodation was very agreable, clean and comfortable, I had everything I needed. Every thing was organized for my arrival and my staying. Everything went very well. Thank you Valentina, Grabiel, Jessy and Grotti for your confidence! I will be happy to return and take care of Grotti.
Paris, France - August 2019
We were very happy with our two-week stay looking after Grotti for Gabriel and Valentina in Eastbourne. Grotti was delightfully playful and affectionate once she had got over her initial shyness on the first day. She enjoyed being petted and playing with a small ball and spent her days between the garden and the living room. Gabriel and Valentina’s house in Eastbourne was comfortable, with a pleasant garden, ideally situated in a very quiet neighbourhood, an easy bus-ride away from the city centre. They were very flexible concerning a later than expected arrival time due to plane problems and gave us all necessary information in real time concerning any queries we had concerning Grotti or the house. Their neighbour was also very helpful. Overall, we would highly recommend this family and Grotti, whose sweetness we already miss!
Melbourne, Australia - January 2018
Gabriel and Valentina warmly welcomed us into their home and their hamlet. They gave us detailed instructions, even introducing us to their friendly neighbours in case we needed them for anything. Their home is well placed within the Bergamo region. Lot's to see and do within an hours drive radius. We easily found our way around, and found places such as cafes, shops and parks locally. More importantly their little cat who we already miss so much is delightful. She has the most beautiful nature. So affectionate, gentle and loving, and we really enjoyed being at home with her. Highly recommended.
