As a family
The dream to live in Europe became a reality in 2018 by using this website to find a housesit. We struck gold by finding a long term housesit in France!. ooh la la did things change! . We got such a taste for this life enriching adventure, it will be 6 years this October and we feel we have become real house-sit addicts đ or even professionals! During COVID we returned to Sydney, Australia, again in longterm housesits. But we were asked to come back here in France for very long term house-sitting. ( Mid 2023)
A bit about our family: Damian is a ( part time) CAD draftsman / surveyor ( aviation) and is working from his laptop.
Damian was brought up on a farm/vineyard in South Australia by Dutch parents. He is quite the handyman. He has renovated several houses and this proves to become very helpful living amidst 15 hectares of vines in a large farmhouse. Tygo , our son(18) has become an enthusiastic side kick and has finished school in Australia.
Lisette has a certificate in support work for aged care.
We love what we are doing and often go over and beyond because we can't help ourselves and on top of that as a bonus, we get to spend time as a family and share this experience together, learning from all the different animals and people we have met.
Thank you for your time to read this.
We have clean police checks and great references.

Lisette, Damian and their wonderful kids have been spectacular house sitters. Not only have they looked after our big old farm house (which requires a lot of TLC) lovingly and with extreme care, they have a knack for all DIY, and more than that, they are very good and comfortable with handling tools and equipment and can perform many works that require handcrafting, building, assembling, constructing, etc. We have been so lucky with all their care in the house, the garden, the herb garden, the farm ...... On another note, since I do pop in once in a while when I come to Europe, I stay with them and they make me feel so welcome. They are kind and respectful to our small village community and made a real difference to my worry and happiness of leaving our beautiful farm. Thank you very much !
