How To Live RENT FREE In New Zealand 🏠

The last year and a bit we've been house sitting around New Zealand and Australia, getting to visit amazing places like Queenstown, Wanaka, Christchurch & Sydney and doing it all whilst paying $0 in rent!
The housing prices in both Australia and New Zealand are pretty insane. So with house sitting we went from paying $24,000 a year in rent (before expenses) to paying $0 a year. By eliminating our BY FAR largest expense we've been able to work less, save more and stress less. Not to mention, it's been amazing visiting all these beautiful places and I highly recommend trying it! (This video is not sponsored haha! I was quite unsure that this would be a sustainable accomodation model, but after this last year I can for sure say it is!)

You show such good humour in including the outtakes reel … ! Sorry the van proved less than ideal, but I hope you both enjoyed that experience before the house sitting.

[@SagaJohanna]

Haha thank you :) The van was great, but too cold in winter!

Hi Saga! I loved seeing the old Beagle that you were caring for. I grew up with a Beagle whose name was also Missy! ❤💖💚

[@SagaJohanna]

Oh wow! That is so special! ❤💖💚 This Missy was deaf so her owner used sign language. I also love Beagles, they're adorable!

[@karenarden1856]

I know, I love these kinds of sweet coincidences! Beagles are super cute! Just yesterday, my son showed me a video of an adult Beagle and a Beagle puppy interacting, and they are so adorable! 😍🥰

[@susandean8584]

I love beagles too. It is my dream to be a mom to a rescue beagle.

[@karenarden1856]

Oh that's so very kind and sweet of you! There are a lot of Beagles that need rescuing, as very sadly they are frequently used as laboratory dogs. If you Google it, I'm sure you will find a Beagle to love that will love you, and be forever grateful!! 🙌❤️💚

[@SagaJohanna]

Oh I found one two of an adult Beagle showing the puppy how to open the dog door. I almost cried!! 😍🥰@@karenarden1856 Here if you have not seen it kzbin.info9D4VORcRawo

Very happy for you. I like to watch someone else's happiness. P.S. 1:22 My cat looked the same. Unfortunately, he died long ago :(

[@SagaJohanna]

Australia proved to be the hell during last years, how they treated their citizens was insane

[@SagaJohanna]

During the last years?

[@kasiakasia9445]

It’s okay for you live in different places and move out often as a autistic person? For me every change is so hard 😟 Can you talk a little bit about how you advise?

[@SagaJohanna]

Ehh, haha, it's really really hard. I never want to go, and then I don't want to leave.. :) But I have sort of gotten used to it a bit more. I make sure I bring the things I know I need for the first few days. For example, when I moved to Japan I brought 10 bags of muesli with me, to make sure I at least had the most important part of my routine with me. Little things like that keeps me feeling safe and makes it a whole lot easier! And also, ear plugs. I can't go anywhere without them.

Have a god Jul! kram

[@SagaJohanna]

You too!
