Experienced house exchangers

Hi, me and my husband, we are experienced "house swappers", already exchanged 4-5 times and very happy! Our place is in Orlando FL, - Disney etc., it is small but luxury apartment and is situated in one of the best areas in the town, name is Baldwin Park, check on www.Baldwinarknetwork.com. We can be contacted for all parts of the world, if our schedule is fine with you, we'll exchange mails, we are two and we can accommodate a family with two children, we are open for a non simultaneous exchange, too. This way we made friends all over the world!

House sit

Hello...

I am a single Caucasian male, age 58, retired after 30+ years: electrician, instrument mechanic, power engineer from natural gas pipeline industry.

My new passion is sailing and keelboat racing. I am reliable, fastidiously clean and willing to look after your home in a warm coastal community preferably Mexico or Caribbean, for periods between Nov 1 to April 30th, where I can pursue my hobby. I can look after your dog and do maintenance around your home. I also am a homeowner in Kelowna, BC, Canada.

If you would like more details please contact me.

thanks
Al

Housesitter experiences? Share your stories, successes & curiousities

Hello,
I've been doing a bunch of reading on housesitting opportunities lately, and I have read some quite appealing stories, but a good number seem to be fairly...marketed and endorsing certain websites, which I can see why, but I wanted to solicit some unadulterated stories, if I may.

Anyone with experience? Recommendations for certain websites?

I'd like to experience more around the world, and a quiet house in a far-off setting would be quite ideal for my writing.

Thanks.
