We Sleep Around, Homeless by Choice
Greetings -
My wife and I have been traveling 100% of the time for nearly 14 years via house/pet sitting. We live in other's homes loving and caring for their
pets, allowing them to travel worry free! During this 14 years we have traveled to 45 states within the United States, 40 foreign countries, enjoyed
21 cruises/213 nights, stayed in roughly 50 time shares, and over 100 hotels. We have slept in 845 beds and completed 150 house/pet sits - world wide!
We have shared our story through recent speaking engagements to promote our first of three books - "We Sleep Around, Homeless by Choice." Yes, that
is the title of our new book! Book one is about our first 5+ years of homelessness, beginning when we sold our home in rural San Diego County, CA
February 2002 and ends when I head to the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, Iraq for a two year contract position with the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
Over the years we have had five newspaper articles written about us; both in the U.S. and Mexico.
Check out our "GR8 Adventure" web site - www.Susied1999.webs.com which highlights our story, has an extensive photo gallery, our calendar, and tells about our book. Our 40th wedding
anniversary is October 25, and it just so happens to be our 5,000th day of homelessness!
As an aside, we are home owners at Papa Fernandez at Gonzaga Bay!
If you would be interested in a signed copy of our book it would be $17, inluding shipping and handling (email me directly at - wsccld@aol.com) or for
a unsigned copy go directly to - www.createspace.com/5418534 We look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Best regards,
Bill (Harley) & Susie Davidson

So these folks are either Trust Babies
or
We will have to support them when they are retired, but wait how can you retire from doing nothing??

Living full time in Baja you realize how important it is to have someone reliable to care for your pets and property when you travel. I don't know
these people, but if they are in fact reliable and have good references, I think they could provide a very valuable service.

I agree with the above. We are always looking for reliable house sitters who will treat our home like it was theirs. The one time we left the house
without a sitter we got robbed blind. I would like to talk to these people.
Living Large in Loreto. Off-grid and happy.

To - Big Woo/ncampion/southpatch -
Thank you for your positive comments - much appreciated! And, yes, we are reliable and have lots - lots of references. I'm currently doing a
house/pet sit in Bonsall, CA and my wife is doing one in Santa Monica, CA. We will move on to Rancho Bernardo, CA then Las Vegas, NV, and then onto
Fallbrook, CA. These will take us thru October. We will have a break the first week of September and may be going to our place at Papa Fernandez -
Gonzaga Bay. Our book - We Sleep Around, Homeless by choice does outline our house/pet sitting and travels for the first 5+ years should you be
interested.
Cheers,
Harley
