Jana Keller

An unforeseen circumstance leads Jana Keller, born in Basel in 1980, to a 180° turn in her life. Jana and her partner Joe took advantage of the forced change, quit their jobs, swapping their well-established lives including their company, home, friends and family for the search for freedom and a suitcase with 23kg each - their new home.

What started as a sabbatical with a small budget developed into a passion and the realisation that house-sitting could be a journey without end.

4 years, 14 countries, 19 house-sits and over 40 pets later - with a stopover in Costa Rica where they built their own tiny house - Jana and Joe continue up-to-date to travel the world as a house-sitting couple.

As a successful fashion designer, trade fair founder and shop owner, the Swiss entrepreneur shaped the way for holistic, organic and fair-trade fashion brands with her brand ROYAL BLUSH for over a decade. Her designs are worn by Hollywood stars such as Jessica Alba, Alison Brie and Daphne Zuniga of Melrose Place, among others.

Today she is a full-time house-sitter and 'digital nomad' (author, designer and Vastu consultant).

With her book HOUSESITTING AROUND THE WORLD – A Never Ending Holiday, she wants to inspire people to realise their long-awaited desires and reach for their own stars.

"If you close one door, you will soon find that another one is already open and just waiting to be stepped through!"
