It depends on the country Suzan! In many many countries, it is easy to find jobs without work permits. You might check out my Earning Abroad series, where my different interviewees address this!

Thanks for the tips! Im in the planing of backpacking right now and still have a lot to learn! Theres one question that keeps coming in my mind: All those bloggers talk about working but never about the visas. Is it hard to get working visas or do you not need those in certain countries (Or do you do jobs where those arent needed?)

Hey Allie, glad you found me! No worries there… I definitely won’t stop blogging anytime soon! Enjoy the crazy ride of chasing all those travel dreams, and I hope you’ll stick around here too 🙂

However…I couldn’t stop reading post to post and I think I’ve spent about 3 hours on your site simply reading just about as many blog posts I possibly can before my eyes turn red. And I just have to say, wow..you have sincerely inspired me to chase my wanderlust dreams as well. I hope to travel to Thailand and Singapore next year and Hawaii later this year! Thank you so much for your helpful blog posts and tips — and of course, please keep blogging!!!!! (:

So true, Maria. Having a bit of a safety net is a game changer indeed! My safety net has drained and now I’m living on the edge 🙂 That said, I do have a somewhat reliable source of income now. I’d love to built up those savings again though!

I like what you are doing girl!. Travel is sure a great way to live. Today most uf us, if we plan well, can do this in some point. I do want to say that having a safety net and going to sleep at night knowing that you have that security in case anything happens is a big game changer. For others,when they have to work to get a safety net deciding to leave everything and travel indefinetaly is not so easy. Still, I don’t mean to point a fingers saying this but people are different and they should question themselves on ”why can’t I do what she’s/he’s doing?”. Everyone’s path will be different.I am currently working to create some financial safety in order to have the liberty to go and do as I please in the next coming years still knowing that my family will have something to rely on in case of an emergency. Being rational is key in this world.

These books are a great place to start, Eshan! I’m hoping to put a follow up to this post together soon — stay tuned! There are also plenty of location independent blogs to check out in the meantime as well.

I never knew such a thing called Full-time travel would be possible.
I am currently 25, unemployed and looking for work. I do want to work for next couple of years and gain all the knowledge from the books alongside to start my own journey which is to go to all music festivals. Are these books (in this post) all the books you would recommend for me? Are there any other sources where I can get more information which helped you in your journey?
