House Sitting My Way Through Southern England: Discovering New Places

What if where you stayed actually changed the way you traveled?

For several weeks this summer, I tried house sitting in England, piecing together three different dog sits as I traveled through the southern part of the country.

Along the way, I spent time in places I might never have visited otherwise, from rural Hampshire and Winchester to Bradford on Avon and Axbridge.

In this episode, I’m sharing what house sitting is really like, how I made it work without a car, and some of the new places I discovered along the way.

I’ll also talk about the benefits — and responsibilities — of house and pet sitting and why it can be an interesting way to travel longer, spend less on accommodations and experience a destination a little more like a local.

If you love dogs (or cats or any other animals), slower travel and discovering places beyond Europe’s usual stops, house sitting might just be another way to Wander Your Way.
