It's so good to be back. Time for a bit of slow again 🀩

If you daydream of travel and think it's something only for financially wealthy people with an abundance of time... Challenge your limitations πŸ™Œ nostr:note1t26nufygc87x7t3yjfx7mdr5m2zu5xdcr37dy9zxpgswqcyk6p6q53muuh

We arrived. πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Έ

Forever grateful for my incredible life. πŸ’― nostr:note1huxcw3y7mdgdn6ukqqg47fnzuawk8hh7u7tc2s36p84vcj2pgduq58p3u2

My honest belief is the only actual limitation to the life I live would be a really tough passport to travel on (in saying that I have met people travelling on passports from almost everywhere, it's just a lot harder for a person / family with a passport from a country with lots of visa requirements.

We were a one income family. My husband drove trucks 60 hours a week in Australia (not a cheap country).

We rented out a spare bedroom. We sold everything we owned (not much, we didn't have assets or own a home, no fancy car) left with 3 kids and fuck all money. We almost ran out.

And we were stuck in a foreign country with no way home because our borders were closed. As our funds went down, I found a way to teach English online for $10 usd an hour. Eventually I got sick of travelling with hardly any time or money. And then I found a great remote job.

My point is, If you want it badly enough you'll sell everything, cancel every subscription service you have. You'll save every cent, no takeout, no wastage. You'll take every opportunity to learn some skills that might help you abroad. And you'll find you have enough to buy your ticket (even if it's only domestic or close by local if you have difficult visa restrictions). And then you save a bit longer and you go. It doesn't have to be complicated.

We are by no means financially more wealthy than any average western world family. I didn't win lotto, sell a big tech company or gain some kind of inheritance. I'm just a normal everyday human. My main difference to the standard family is we don't buy stuff, we never owned cars on finance and we were always living on a strict budget that allowed us to save.

I dare you to challenge your limiting belief (if travel is something you actually want to do) πŸ™

We arrived in Spain (we left here in December 2022). πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Έ

You only have one life.

If travel calls you:

Book the ticket. Save up and go.

This is our second time around the world and I feel even more freedom than I did the first time.

People wait their whole lives for a dream.

Don't wait.

Do it. Live it.

Go wherever you want to go. See whatever you want to see.

Life is short. Make it everything you dream of.

Yeah just a stop over on the way to Spain. Not long enough for my liking πŸ˜‚

It's been a full on couple of days with early starts and no sleep (less than 5 hours for me in the last almost 3 days).

We made it to #doha #qatar and decided we definitely need to return since we have only 20 hours layover and everyone wanted to go to sleep at 3pm πŸ˜‚

Next stop πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΈπŸ˜ https://video.nostr.build/2657caba26df9307d8b0fd4d2ae9ae706c898b91977f2fbdf2f8573f6e469c32.mp4
