I get asked all the time how I can afford to travel the world so much a lot. There is often an assumption that you need to be rich to take a gap year or travel long term, or that you need to be of a certain background to be able to throw some things in a pack and travel somewhere new. The fact is none of this is true at all. Anyone can travel the world if they want to and they certainly don’t need to be rich to do it. I’m living proof Here is how I can afford to travel as much as I do.
