We are a newly retired couple looking to house sit in throughout the world, mainly English-speaking countries s I taught English for years. My husband was a Physics and Chemistry teacher and is a brilliant handyman (electricity, pumbing, masonry...) having rebuilt our 18th century mansion all on his own. Therefore we are capable of all the usual duties associated with home ownership. We are also animal lovers. We both had dogs when we were little and owned a cat for years. I love plants too. We enjoy meeting people and learning about others and we are very responsible and conscientious people.
