Lot, France
We found this amazing house sitting possibility in Lentillac-Saint-Blaise, Lot, Occitanie through Nomador, an international website that matches hosts with house sitters. Lot is one of the departments we have been curious to see whether might be the one for us or not, and keeping a house for a few days was a great way to get to know the area a bit better. The sympathetic couple Pauline and her partner, who is also named Jean, made us feel very welcome with a delicious meal the evening before they went on their hiking holiday.

Blanzay

Creative Nomads In Spain
Earlier this year we visited my skipper dad and did "house sitting" on another boat in south of Spain. Great way to travel on a low budget! The photos are from Benalmádena, Torremolinos and Mijas, all beautiful and friendly places to find inspiration for creative projects, such as making a promo video for RJ Art. Hope you enjoy them!
