and i just sit in the back listening to kanye leaks

i might do this throughout the rest of central asia when trains aren’t available. i don’t really like buses unless they’re lay flat

If you went there with at least one other guy I'd recommend renting a car and just driving yourself or switch turns. Central Asia is like the Wild West with those rather empty roads in the middle of the steppes. I'd chill driving straight through a desert, occasionally passing a mountain range, absolutely epic landscapesIMG_6509.jpeg

even when you have some it's not like they aren't working and either have money or are smart spenders, to travel to some random place the next day - it's exhausting to me when they're planning some trip with me that'll take place next month ugh.... I like to live in the moment

20+. I'm literally back to this forum after an entire year. The past four months were intensive for me on all kinds of planes. Right now I'm just taking a short break to get my shit together an be more prepared

Do you have a remote job or online business?
 
Interesting; how long did it take to get to wherever you are now, which I’m assuming is somewhere comfortably in the 6-7 figure range in USD?
haha, well actually it's much less than that, but it doesn't matter. I try to live strategically. Travel the cheapest and live in the cheapest hotels (not hostels!) while basically focusing my time on countries with the lowest costs of living. This way I can survive on basically just having my money in a savings account - like the 4% we have right now, aside form some other minor sources of income for me. With my trading I've become more risk averse now, seeing the potential in it but I mostly am just enjoying the nomad lifestyle for now

What are the other minor sources of income?

but one thing i've been thinking about lately is giving English lessons. In many of the niche destinations there's a lack of native English tutors especially ones that know the local language. This wouldn't make me a millionaire but would significantly boost my regular income, and as a bonus I get to meet some local people
