"For a small outlay, housesitting enables the housesitter to go virtually anywhere.

In the last year, I have looked after houses in Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula and the Gold Coast .

My next sit is in rural Victoria, where I’ll be for two months, followed by six weeks in Melbourne. After that, who knows?

One thing is for sure, as a lifestyle it’s hard to beat, yet it doesn’t break the bank and I cannot imagine any other way for a pensioner to see so much of the country."

- RG, Queensland
