For me, the only way you can “live like a local” is when you’re stepping into the place of the local.

In this episode, you’ll find out all about international housesitting, and Dalene also shared about the grief that resulted in deciding to change their lives, and how they ended up setting roots back home in Alberta once again in 2016. Since leaving home almost 10 years ago, Dalene and her husband Pete have housesat around the world, travelled to far away places like Greenland and the Faroe Islands, become National Geographic Travelers of the Year, and NATJA Medalist for Best Independent Travel Blog.
