We have a HOME!

Well we finally have a home.
This is it. A nice 1950's house with good bones and a fair bit of work to be done. It has a partial seaview as you can see and is about a 2 minute walk from the beach.


Housesitting was great. About 15 months in all, and we lived in more than 14 different homes. It was an adventure, that is for sure, but for now we have put down roots. I will tell you more about the changes to the house as we go, plus reflect on what we learned by "sleeping around" so much.
