This is my current abode. I arrived a few days ago and I’ll be here until March 29th. The home owners have gone for a tiki tour of the South Island where they plan to do a fair bit of tramping. This is a brand new property for me, and my first time here. It’s…

My current house sit. This one is located in the Thames township. I arrived here on the evening of February 14th. It’s a compact and cosy 1950s house with a brand new sun deck, and with some other exterior renovations in progress. The pets consist of a couple nice kitty cats who go by the…

After a pause of six weeks on my house sitting, I’m finally back into it. This property is located in suburban Te Awamutu. I normally go for the more rural properties but my car is overdue for a good birthday and needing a thorough service, wheel alignment, and some other bits and pieces. So when…
