CLEAN - RESPONSIBLE - Paris House Sitter

I'm being awarded a trip for reaching my sales goals this year and I want to go to beloved Paris. In order to use my award budget wisely, I'm looking to house sit so I can spend my reward on things other than lodging: like fine food and wine. I'm a sales manager for a large vitamin supplement company and I come with references. Time and date are flexible. Merci! Julie

Feb 2010 My apartment in Chicago for yours in Barcelona

Hi!
I have a three bedroom apartment in a three flat in trendy Logan Square, Chicago. I am traveling to Spain for the month of February, 2010, and would be interested in a house swap to save money and just have an interesting experience. My place is clean and simple, my landlord (and close friend) lives upstairs.
I am not looking for frills, just laid back simplicity...
Thanks!

Calling all writers, photographers, artists, independent travelers...

I am offering a retreat for a writer, photographer, artist or any like minded independent traveler on board my 32 foot sailboat, which is located in the Ionian, Greece. Wonderful views, great walks, lovely town, ancient ruins nearby. Bring your car or rent one and venture inland. Share my home on the water (you get your own cabin) and see Greece off season. Non-smokers only please. Women preferred.
