I have a home in Llanwrtyd Wells in mid-Wales. I've spent the last four years travelling and house-sitting, mainly in Asia. Here's my house-sittting profile

www.mindmyhouse.com/owners/sitter_listing/24974

I'm early retired and like to dedicate myself to travel for half the year and live in the lovely town of Llanwrtyd the other half (the spring and summer, of course!). I like to read and write in my spare time and to meet people from different cultures and countries.

I'm a vegan (you don't have to be). In lockdown I've been reading John Mortimer and Garcia Marquez and listening to Dorothy L Sayers audiobooks. I also helped out gardening for some people.

I don't have a TV or a Smartphone. I have wifi. I don't watch news programmes and have no opinon about current affairs. I only found out Boris Jobson is Prime Minister when Covid-19 made me read internet bulletins to try and find a way back home from Malaysia. I have heard of Donald Trump.
