More information about this house sitter

Who are we?
We are a responsible family who love the outdoors and spending quality time together. We are a family of 4, a mum a dad and 2 young kids (a 4yo and 3 month baby). I am originally from Spain and my husband is Australian. We speak Spanish in our house and try as often as possible to get back there to see family and friends.

What do we do for living?
We currently live in Canberra and until recently both worked in the government. I am now on a career break to look after our kids and my husband now runs his own business in IT development.

My husband and I are both Dr’s in research. I worked in veterinary and food safety science and my husband in marine science/aquaculture. Despite being a vet ‘by trade’ I can’t legally work as a vet here as my Spanish degree is not recognised in Australia (despite that it was in the UK where I worked as a vet many years ago)!!

We are extremely well travelled people. We have probably been to well over 100 different countries and lived and worked all over the world (Vietnam, Spain, UK, Mozambique, China, and Australia). Learning about different people and places, and the subsequent broadening our horizons is a really important part of our lives. We have a great appreciation for different cultures, people and of course the foods from different countries.

What do we do for playing?
We spend most of our "free" time doing household chores, looking after the kids and watching our oldest son playing ninja turtle, transformers and batman. When we are not doing that, we spend a lot of time with friends, heading outdoors exploring, riding bikes, travelling, beach time, experiencing new places and teaching the kids as much as we can about life. We love animals and while we sadly don’t have a dog anymore, we have managed to commit to a tropical aquarium and have a pet fish called Compa.

Are we responsible?
We are very responsible and reliable people. The best example of this is that my husband used to run programs with an annual budget of over 8 million dollars, and is well respected in the scientific and international development communities. He is renown for getting things done efficiently and effectively. I guess my thinking is that if the government and private sector trusts him with that amount of money then he must be somewhat responsible!! Knowing the kind of person he is, he lives by a philosophy that if something is loaned to you you give it back in a better condition than you received it in. So I can assure you that your house will be in good hands with ’the Dictator' in charge!!
