I met Chelsea Turgeon 2 years ago (!) in Da Nang, Vietnam. Since then, we've grown sooooo much as business owners, travelers and people. 

In this episode, we talk about what changed in our lives since being baby-business owners in Da Nang, where Chelsea traveled to and how she niched down her business. I will also give you an idea of what I have planned before I leave Europe again to go nomadic in October.

After 10 years of living in Nicaragua, Chapin was home for only 9 months before he left for Thailand to start his digital nomad journey. Now, 6+ years in and he's still trying to figure out what business idea works for him and his lifestyle.

I think this episode might be the most important one on the podcast so far, because Chapin is so real and open about his digital nomad journey. It's usually not the first business idea that works for us to become digital nomads, and it might actually take a while to figure out what does. Listen to this episode to hear Chapin's experience in figuring it out.

Björn Palsson has been traveling fulltime for 12 years! For most of this time, he funded his travels by working local jobs around the world, saving most of his income, and then travel until he was broke. 

I HAD to ask Björn for tips on how to find all these local jobs, because I was not successful when I tried this strategy in 2018.

After years of travel and going off the beaten path, Björn started his adventure travel company Crazy Puffin Adventure. They take small groups of travellers on truly adventurous trips. Get ready for lots of travel inspiration, my bucketlist is longer than ever after recording this episode.
