Welcome! We’re Brooke & Buddy!
Nomads | Full-Time House/Pet Sitters | Travelers | Experts at Just Winging It
In 2017, we quit our office jobs and set off on an often-challenging adventure to find a new life path that suited us better. After some trial and error (including a year in an RV), we found our best fit with international house and pet sitting. Plus, Brooke works as a freelance editor/writer and Buddy does freelance photography and website design.
We’re pretty transparent around here and enjoy sharing our lessons learned when it comes to travel, the nomad life, and house sitting. Of course, we share about all the awesome destinations we visit and unique experiences we have.
Come trail away and get lost with us!
