Transition To Travel: From Big Salary To Frugal Travel Life

Published: Jan. 19, 2021, 11 a.m.

Do you have dreams of long-term travel? What are you willing to "give up" in pursuit of it?

 

Today's guest is Becca Hall who shares how she gave up a high paying corporate job for a life of indefinite travel. This is another episode in my series called Transition To Travel where we speak to the guest right before they leave to start traveling and then again at least a year or more into the journey. Becca shares the psychology of why she pretended to not have any money, how she cut back to save up for this lifestyle of travel, what she would do differently if she could back in time, and tips and tricks for fellow solo female travelers out there. This is only a small amount of everything we get into today so grab your favorite beverage, relax, and enjoy my honest and very real chat with Becca Hall.

 

I love these labor of love episodes and I hope you do too!
