- Places & Travel
Being a full-time traveller allows you to experience more places than you ever would during just two weeks of PTO. But life as a full-time traveler isn't always pretty - on the road or off it. And sometimes, life's challenges are even harder while traveling. Nora Dunn, the person behind the travel blog The Professional Hobo, has been a digital nomad and has slow-travelled in 60 countries can attest to that.
In this episode of The New Nomad, Nora joins our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski, in educating and entertaining their listeners with tales from their travels. From how to travel with minimal expenses to shocking stories about animals they encountered, our three nomads certainly had their audience laughing and intrigued. With slow traveling, you’ll be able to see more of the world than you may have ever dreamed of. Remember: the most important thing is to just get started! The whole world awaits.
[3:09] Sometimes, children are wiser than adults
[5:39] That feeling when you use your passport again
[8:44] How animals make traveling a different experience
[16:55] Tracking your expenses to sustain the digital nomad lifestyle
[20:17] Immersing in other’s culture teaches you a lot about life
[24:13] It is still a lot of fun being a tourist
Nora Dunn is a Professional Hobo and International Freelance Writer, who enjoys life on the road and was with no fixed address (she now has her homebase in Toronto, Canada).
As a former Certified Financial Planner, Nora travels responsibly despite her Hobo moniker. She has the key to traveling full-time in a financially sustainable way, and helps others achieve the same dreams. Nora travels slowly and in a culturally immersive way through free accommodation techniques such as house-sitting, volunteering, living on boats, hospitality exchanges, and more; and she has parlayed her expertise and experience into the ebook How to Get Free Accommodation Around the World, Tales of Trains: Where the Journey is the Destination, and Working on the Road: The Unconventional Guide to Full-Time Freedom.
