Help me get the hell out of here for a month!

I think my flightiness has started to rub off on Dave, because the other night we were sitting there talking (again) about where we should go to get away from Amsterdam and our current lives for a bit, and we have decided that sometime late next year we are going to go to South America and do some jungle exploring along the Amazon. I won’t speak of the creepy crawlies at this point, but I did a quick search and JESUS MARY AND GUISEPPE there are LOADS of things to be wary of in them there trees!

ANYWHO, that’s not the point of this blog. The point is, we are going to go away for one month (maybe a bit more), and our most major obstacle now in going, is who will watch the dogs??? My sweet little lovely furbabies?

So, what we are looking for is someone responsible, who is an animal lover, who has some free time on their hands and is up for coming to Europe to watch my dogs in exchange for free rent (but not free charges like gas, phone, etc but that is comparatively cheap).

Someone who will take care of them the way that I want them taken care of (three walks a day, one at least an hour, not overfeeding the little fat one, lots of cuddle time, letting them sleep on the bed with you, or at least in the bedroom, etc, etc, and so forth), and will not be too plastered during their stay here to give them the attention that they need. Someone who will be OK with staying in Amsterdam during that entire time, and someone who will have enough money to get them by, as the chances of finding under the table work here are pretty slim!  We couldn’t pay for your ticket, but you would get free accomodation.

Maybe you will be in between jobs at that time, and are looking for a short change from your day to day life? Maybe you will have just ended university and are job hunting, but not too seriously and would like a little European break for a bit? Maybe you work from home and you can do your job from here? Maybe it’s not you, but you know someone who fits this description?*

You’d have a 2 bedroom apartment (so maybe you and a friend, or you and your bf/gf?) with everything that you need just a short walk away, including nightlife. You can use our bikes, my cell phone, the computer- basically everything, as long as you take ****really good care of my dogs***!!! (no pressure there or anything!)

If you are interested, or know someone who might be interested who you trust, please email me on whatareyouthinkingrightnow @ gmail.com

This trip won’t be for another year yet, and it won’t even take place unless we find someone that we are comfortable with, so there is a lot of negotiation time, but please let me know if this could work!

Thanks!
