Alternative Ways To Make Money While Traveling
We’ve already established that you can make money while traveling the world by starting a blog, but what if running a blog isn’t your thing? Are you instead a kickass teacher? What about a born salesperson? Do you have experience working in a resort? Or do you dream of appearing on the big screen?

Traveling abroad and seeing the world are items you can find on most people’s bucket lists, but so many people have a hard time crossing it off.
“I can’t get the time off work”;
“I have to wait until my kids are a little older”; and, the main reason:
“I just don’t have the money.”
To start, our first tip is that if you really have the urge to travel, make it happen. Get a financial planner, live extremely minimally in order to save maximally. Whatever you have to do, get determined to make it happen.

10 Sacrifices Made To Travel The World No matter what your dream, making it happen will always take sacrifice. Saving money takes sacrifice. Traveling the world takes sacrifice. Everyone is blogging about the benefits of travel, and while there many, there are also many sacrifices which come with the choice to pursue this lifestyle. Some of these are fairly insignificant, and easy to de-prioritize. Others are a little more difficult to endure, and will often be the primary obstacle preventing others from traveling. My best advice is to sit...

Make Money While Traveling The World. Start A Blog. I recently asked a room full of ordinary Americans “what kind of people get to travel?” The response from an overwhelming majority was “rich people”. Another popular response was “lucky people”. I don’t consider myself to be rich by any means, and I like to think that I have created my own luck through motivation and determination. I decided a long time ago that there are no rules to life, and that anybody can live the life of their dreams. For me...

How to Make Adventure Travel Your Lifestyle In October 2013 the Wellfit Institute partnered with Lululemon Athletica and Origin Outside to bring adventure speakers to Naples, Florida.

When booking a hotel room my biggest advice is to do your research. Often it will be cheaper to book directly through the hotel, however sometimes it pays to check third party websites for specials and on-going deals. Large websites have the budget and power to offer discounts and promotions exclusive to their customers. Orbitz.com is one such large company, and one of our preferred third party websites. Having had our eye on the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Miami, for a while now, we saw my parents coming to town as the ideal...
read moreThe Topsy Turvy Topic of Tipping
Tipping is a topic I have been wanting to rant about for a while, however it seems as an Australian – a country which doesn’t tip – my words carry little weight. I have believed for a number of years now that tipping has been taken too far throughout the world, especially within the United States where a tip now seems to be expected throughout more industries than just service. It’s incredibly difficult for even the most avid of travelers to know when it is appropriate to tip, and how much, and foreigners...

How I Afford To Travel I grew up being told that you can achieve anything you want if you’re willing to work hard enough to get it. And while it may sound like cliche advice, it’s the best advice I was ever given. You CAN achieve anything you want, so long as you want it badly enough. You can be anything you want, achieve anything you want, and even travel the world indefinitely…if you want!! I am constantly asked how I can possibly fit in all of the travel I do, and how I can possibly afford it all. I’m not rich, I’ve never won the...

Everything You Need to Know About the Australian Tourist Refund Scheme Post updated September 2018. For the most up to date information on the Australian Tourist Refund Scheme, see the Department of Immigration Website. “Free Money” is generally the kind of tag line which attracts instant attention for something completely unrelated, but in this case it’s kind of half true! (so only 50% unrelated!!) I consider myself to be a pretty seasoned international traveller, and thought I knew all of the tricks of the trade when it came to...
