Hi everyone. I am Jean from Glasgow (originally from Ireland). I recently retired and am looking forward to visiting lots of different places and having the company of some furry friends. I have just joined Trusted Housesitters and look forward to sharing experiences and tips with all you folk.

Hi there! Yes, I am beginning to get excited about what the future holds. Jean
Thanks for your reply, Smiley! I have to admit I feel slightly nervous about my first house sit. I have done house swapping in the past and it has been wonderful. But with a stay-at-home son who is studying just now, this seems like a great way to travel especially as I enjoy the company of animals as well as having a passion for travelling. So thanks for the message.
