My Portable Paradise

Summary

A New Way of Life for a Restless Age

(Author's Narration)

Tired of burning bitter hours in a toxic job? Tired of the same old routine? Tired of the stress and hassle of paying rent? Or a mortgage?

Then house sitting may be for you!

As old work structures break down, and people long for an easier and simpler life, a veteran house sitter and author welcomes you to share in the joys and blessings he has received. From a beach house in Costa Rica, he describes what house sitting is, its pleasures and pitfalls, and how best to prepare.

Whether you're a "digital nomad" looking for adventure, a student contemplating life choices ahead, or retired and seeking a change of scenery, you'll find gentle guidance in this book.

And... it might just change your life!

"Sharing experiences, giving advice, and also making the reader slightly envious of his adventures."

Amy Shannon, Amy's Bookshelf Reviews

"Informative and rich in references to Shakespeare, Abdiel’s book is full of instructions and the dos and donts of housesitting while at the same time entertaining the reader with his special brand of humor. This is a delightful – and useful – little memoir."
