Hey serious question. Do you poke around and have a sneaky look in their drawers and stuff? I am not sure if I could control myself not to breach the housesitee's privacy!!I'm house sitting a house with a little menagerie of animals. One little scaredy dog, a rabbit, a goldfish, a chicken and a bully rooster.
Dogs are usually good with me but this one is trying to avoid me hehe. It's my mission to be friends before the week is out.
I watched some movies from their collection yesterday, Paper planes is a cute little Aussie film -- plus I learnt how to make this cool cylindrical paper plane in the special features! Then Hugo which is not really the kind of thing I expected from a Scorsese film, but I did enjoy most of it.
House sitting is kinda like a holiday that you get paid for. Most of the day I've been on the lounge reading. Pretty sweet deal to get paid to do this.

I have a gf who house sits here on the coast,and she probably spends 12 weeks a year in other people's homes. She has a 28 year old son still at home and she enjoys the break from him.
