We are a couple who travel the world and want to inspire people to think differently about the life they can design for themselves through our journey.

Life ‘Stuck’ in Taiwan during the coronavirus pandemic (April’s edition)

What is life like ‘stuck’ in Taiwan during the coronavirus pandemic? Strange but wonderful! It feels strange because while most of the world was on pause in April, Taiwan has been moving forward and operating as usual. We dine at restaurants, get on crowded subway rides, explore tourist sites, see students going to school and workers going to work. We feel guilty at times for leading such free lives after we completed our home self-quarantine. If we were back in the US or France, we would be unable to move around freely and would be constantly worried about possibly spreading the virus to our loved ones so we are very grateful for the freedom we have in Taiwan. Thank you Taiwan!

What we learned from interviewing 12 nomadic couples and individuals travelers

I know that our story to design a life on our own terms wasn’t due to luck by any means but rather because this was something we truly prioritized in our lives. There’s also multiple ways to achieve your ideal lifestyle and no two stories are the same.

About 6 months ago I started to look for other couples and individuals that have become nomadic like us to understand their origin story and travel lifestyle. Through a series of twelve interviews, I was able to collect enough data to identify what these stories had in common and what set them apart.

In this blog post, you will be discovering what all of these interviews have in common and what set them apart. You will also have access to top advice and resources from our interviewees if you are interested to start designing your own life. You will also learn more about their favorite travel destinations and best travel tips.
