How to Travel the World for FREE
So, I’ve decided to finally teach a SkillShare class on independent and affordable, long-term world travel. Aka … how to be a vagabond.
Skillshare (one of my favorite NYC startups) aims to revolutionize education by giving anyone the platform to be a teacher. And, after hanging with the Skillshare team last week, they’ve finally convinced me to give it a go!
Quitting my job in 2009 to travel around the world was a natural decision. I knew it was the right call from the very beginning and I’ve never regretted it. But, for many, the thought of leaving a secure job at home for extended travel is unimaginably scary.
Travel is only for the rich! How can I afford it?
What about my job? I can’t quit!
Who do I go with? I can’t go by myself
I’ve never traveled for that long. Where do I stay? Do I buy all my flights upfront?
These are just a sample of the excuses and questions I hear all the time. And, these are the exact concerns, plus others, that I’ll be addressing in my class.
I’ve thrown up a “pilot” version of the class here to test the concept. If I get enough people interested, I’ll set some actual dates! If you’re interested, be sure to click the “add to watch list” button (as shown below).
