[Phen News] House-Sitting - Flexibility, or a doppelganger of homelessness?

In 2025, I am adding a new topic called [Phen News / Fun News] I will select one news story that I have feelings about to share with all of you. The thought is that most of the news stories being broadcasted in Taiwan or adjacent countries are produced in Mandarin. I hope to bring some of those stories to my English-speaking friends or listeners. Today's topic is, "House Sitting" which was inspired by one episode via the platform, LINE TODAY . "House-Sitting" means someone takes care of another person's house while living in it. Here is the episode talking about House Sitting in Mandarin, hosted by Fan Chi-fei, a seasoned journalist who reported on U.S. news for Taiwan's press and television stations for over a decade. She is now based in Taiwan and dedicated herself to the awareness of global news in Taiwan. In this episode, I talked about the pros and cons of house sitting, the reasons behind its booming, and the latent societal issues behind that.
