I am a trustworthy individual, self-reliant, and reliable, used to coping with vagaries of home ownership, pets, and vehicles. I am an honest, down to earth character, tidy, a non-smoker who fulfilled duties with a local Citizens Advice Bureau(volunteer worker) for over five years in NZ. I have a sense of adventure, though it has been set aside for most of my adult life. I love sailing, the sea, enjoy peaceful surroundings. I am an outdoors person and having been a single woman homeowner, I am fairly handy with basic tools (for maintenance)ie I can fix tap washers without getting in the tradesman. These are qualities I hope would allow me to be entrusted to another’s home, as I would care for it as if it were my own.
I have had 2 largish dogs (1 German Shepherd),2 cats over the years. I have housesat for four months in New Zealand's Devonport.Preferably, I seek housesits longer than four weeks, if possible. My aim is to try and become part of the community wherever it may be(perhaps by working locally) and to make some friends whilst I am doing it. I hope to improve my French while in Europe and learn more languages. My two adult children have had "Overseas Experience", now its my turn to discover the merits of living and adapting to new places. My driving skills are very good, having held a license for 35 years. If you enlist my help for looking after your home/property, you cn be assured of my efforts to give both excellent care (and communication if required) in your absence.
