About Us:
We are a nomadic couple from France and the USA, we became financially independent at age 36.
Our Journey:
In 2018, we decided to let go of most of our possessions, bid farewell to the busy life in San Francisco, and quit our nine-to-fives jobs. This marked the beginning of our endless adventure, as we set out to explore the world at our own pace.
What We’re All About:
This blog shares the valuable lessons we’ve learned throughout our nomadic journey and gives transparency to a lot of helpful numbers! Our mission is inspire others to live the life they’ve always dreamed of.
Our Travel Milestones:
For the past 6 years, we’ve traveled to 48 different locations spanning 18 countries across 4 continents. However, our goal is not to visit as many countries as possible. We are in this for the long run, so we are enjoying the journey slowly and pride ourselves in immersing ourselves in one location for longer periods of time.
Demystifying Travel Costs:
A common misconception is that travel is expensive and not sustainable long-term. However during our first year of full-time travel, we showed that travel can be affordable by only spending a total of $28,628 (less than 50% of our spend back in California). We realized we could travel the world for less than the cost of staying home! Our blog is a treasure trove of detailed cost-of-living reports that demonstrate how this can be achieved.
