In this episode, we'll share all our tips and strategies on working from home. We've been working from home for years now and have developed a robust strategy that has enabled us to start and grow our online business. Since we are constantly working from different locations as digital nomads, we've had to learn systems that can be adapted to a variety of "home" situations in order to be able to put in a productive work day. We share it all with you in this episode!

In this episode, we talk about the most common house sitting myths and misconceptions. Most people we talk to about house sitting believe one (or more) of these things! Understanding what house sitting is NOT is just as important (if not more so) than understanding what it IS. In this episode, you'll learn what misconceptions are harmful (and why), and why it's important to get clear on what house sitting really is. Tune in to see if you are harboring one of these misconceptions and potentially hurting your chances of having a positive and successful house sitting experience.

We talk about why we went vegan (we each had very different reasons), when we went vegan (including who went vegan first!), challenges we faced, and what the process looked like for each of us. We also talk about the changes that we noticed in ourselves after we began to eat more plant-based, how living in Spain made us even more vegan, our eating style today, how we feel about imitation cheese and meat products, tips for making the transition easier, and so much more!
