Do you want peace of mind while on holiday?
I love to explore ‘living like a local’ in Avalon Beach...

Could this be ‘a win-win situation’?

My offer:
House sitting / Pet sitting / Home Exchange (Amsterdam)
Available: March / April 2026 ~ and more: please e-mail me!

My name is Daphne van Langen and I am a 49-year-old woman from the Netherlands. I am a self-employed graphic designer who loves travelling, surfing and working remotely. I don't drink or smoke and I lead a healthy lifestyle.

I have been visiting the Northern Beaches since 2011, have friends in Avalon Beach and love the Australian vibe of ocean-centric living (and decent coffee at 6 AM).

For a potential Home Exchange / 1 BDR apt. in Amsterdam:

“I have known Daphne for the last 6 years (since 2019) and I can highly recommend her as a potential house sitter/pet sitter/home exchanger. Daphne is a delightful person – incredibly friendly, interesting and interested – she is very active and loves nothing more than a run and a surf! If you need someone to look after your place this summer please do contact her – you won’t regret it.”

“Daphne was a perfect house guest. Clean, tidy and brilliant with the animals. She took care of our home like it was her own and left it spotless.
We would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs responsible house minding.”
