From a three‑bedroom home to two backpacks, Alicia and her husband traded bills for border crossings and built a full‑time life as globe‑trotting house sitters. In this episode of The Marinade Mixr, she shares how minimalism made world travel possible, the Trusted House Sitters platform they rely on, and what it’s really like caring for pets in places like Fiji, Australia, Southeast Asia, the UK, and beyond. Hear stories of last‑minute cancellations, flooded Welsh suburbs, snow monkeys in Japan, and the community of travelers who swap a permanent address for a passport stamp.
