I'm between wanting to pack up everything and travel the world full time & wanting to buy a little house in the middle of nowhere and live a slow life

I hate hippies

How would somebody travel the world full time?

Are you saying retire and travel, or find something to do that can correlate with traveling full time

 

[YvrzTrvly]

I do this often. It's called slow traveling...kinda like humans should be living.

Did two months in North Island Japan last year. Gonna do a month in Sri lanka in April. Always in natural settings.

Humans disgust me

And how do you “slow travel”?

walking probably

And how do you “slow travel”?

Instead of touring...you pick one spot and spend a week or so there...pick another spot rinse and repeat.

Tourism is horseshyt. Experiencing culture is where it's at.

Don't get me wrong I've seen the sites when I was younger but I realized...

Money stretches further this way...more energetic, more engaged, ability to stay longer.

I've done trips of up to 6 months which my limit of being away from the states.

Everyone else just trying to survive

1) Offline Passive Income - bonds, real estate, pension (a lot of passport bros are retired military - One Master Teacher and Chocolate Thai dude that was hugged up with super inked Thai "show girl")

2) Online Active Income - most of the content creation, drop ship, crypto, social media marketing, SEO, Amazon Affiliate, Affiliate marketing, Kratom, etc. 1% actually have a job with a multi-national corporation or some legit start up job.

3) Turn traveling into your job - Ace, Czech in Effect, Marianna Dey, Tayo Aina, Wode, Chad Bee - and all the rest - savings + outrageous thumbnails + hotspots for everyone + emails to tourist boards... And there are so many sub-genres outside of SexPat/Sex Tourism travel

• Wannabe Bourdains
• Wannabe Indiana Jones
• Luxe Travel
• Cheap Travel

And if it's a guy doing the alternative, the unsaid assumption is that he's a sex tourist/whoremonger/Tinder guy trying to use American game.

traveling as a job seems like it would take the whole essence of traveling out of it

It's not as impossible as it seems....... I could do it right now if I wanted to. Just need a laptop and a good internet connection wherever I'd go.

Agreed.

My dude Sly (Military disability, Airforce I think,) - who isn't heavy on the "girls and party" wave that a lot of Black Dudes are on

Tanzania


And seems like Lebanon a week or 2 later


He has just enough time to hit all the typical tourist sites, get some basic food...and then he's packing to the next country.

• No time to ever chill.
• No real time to learn the language and actually take part in the culture. (even if he stayed 3 months, I doubt that he'd be fluent enough)
• In and out, in and out
• No friends
• No real females, unless she's traveling with you - even if it's "real love"- it's a level of sponsorship that folks might not be able to deal with.

Most of the folks on the digital nomad reddit that have "achieved" the dream - end up hating their lives. But they are so disconnected from friends and family back home, and the culture back home (usually America, but sometimes Europe and Canada) - that they become lost.

Not to me. I’d be a digital nomad in a heartbeat

I understand remote work but realistically how many fully remote jobs is out there, and it’s only so many places you can go if you need internet connection
