There have been some big changes in my life since Jill Sessa interviewed me for Episode 200 at the end of 2022, so I'm back with some updates!
Tune in to learn what's been going on, why I'm feeling the need for more space in my life and work, and how I'm creating that space.
I share:
The big trip we're gearing up for
A major decision I've made about Nomadtopia(R)
A life-changing diagnosis I recently received (don't worry, I'm okay!...
Investing in real estate as a nomad might sound impossible. When you're traveling all the time, how can you buy a property, fix it up, find renters, and manage it? As it turns out, there is a way, and it doesn't involve renovations or interviewing potential tenants—or require you to be local to the property.
In today's episode I'm chatting with Matt Bowles, longtime nomad and cofounder of Maverick Investor...
Simply deciding where to travel as a nomad can be tricky. Every country has different entry and visa laws, and it's easier to travel with some passports than others. Unfortunately, people who have to apply for a visa to go almost anywhere face an unnecessary and unfair barrier to seeing the world.
In today's episode, my guest is Vangile Makwakwa, a South African, a nomad, and a money coach. We talk about d...
Finding a forever home certainly isn't a priority for all nomads. While some are on an intentional search, others actively spurn the idea of home—or they end up finding it when they least expect it and a location they visit just suddenly clicks. As I always say, there's no one way to approach the nomad journey.
In this episode, I'm chatting with Vanessa Jacquemi...
As we enter a new year and the podcast hits 200 episodes, I'm reflecting on my own Nomadtopia journey. I invited my friend Jill Sessa back to interview me on my experiences as a nomad.
In this episode, we talk about how my Nomadtopia has changed since Jill last interviewed me in 2018. I share what's new and upcoming in my work as well as how my lifestyle and my ...
If you're switching locations frequently and working constantly, it's easy to get burned out on nomad life. What systems and boundaries have you put in place to create more balance?
In today's episode, I'm chatting with Kristin Wilson, author of Digital Nomads for Dummies. She shares ...
Do you find it difficult to resist buying all the beautiful and interesting things you encounter on your travels? Today I'm sharing my experience—including the story of a bedspread I've been lugging around for years—and some tips for finding the right approach for you.

If you want to merge your interests with travel, whether on a personal or business level, then you'll enjoy today's episode.
I'm chatting with Stuart Every, an international producer of street festivals, who lives a nomadic lifestyle with three home bases around the world. He's sharing how he built his global business, logistics that come with networking, hiring...
The nomadic lifestyle tends to go in cycles. On the road for a few years, in a permanent location for a few years, back and forth as life brings different wants and needs. Complacency followed by a catalyst for change.
In today's episode, I'm talking with Michael Boyink, who spent eight years on the road in an RV followed by four years living in a small town. He...
There are a lot of decisions to make when it comes to starting a family as a nomad. Your priorities change, you have to plan differently, you might miss some adventures. There's no question that having a baby (or two, in my case!) changes your nomad experience.
In this episode, I'm chatting with Amanda Kingsmith, who currently lives in Mexico with her husband an...
Nomads can experience grief in many forms: grief for the places we've loved and left, grief for saying goodbye to the friends we meet during our travels, and of course grief for those we lose to death. Losing a loved one is always life changing, but it can be especially difficult for those of us living and traveling oceans away from home.
In this episode, I'm jo...
Many people think about remote working and the digital nomad lifestyle as being something new, but it's actually been around nearly as long as the internet itself. Those of us who've been here since the early days have evolved along with it, both in our careers and in our traveling lifestyles.
In this episode, I'm joined by digital marketing consultant and digit...
You never know when a new place might take your breath away. And sometimes, it's the most unlikely destinations that produce the most profound impacts in our lives. As you'll hear in today's episode, even a spur-of-the-moment trip can create a lifelong passion for a place.
In this episode, I'm joined by the founder of Expat in Croatia, Sara Dyson. She shares her...
To live—and really flourish—abroad, cultivating self-trust is critical in finding your footing in a new place. Living in another country can come with a range of difficulties, but that's just part of the challenge. It's not a balm to fix all your problems, but it does provide an opportunity for self-actualization.
In this episode, I am joined by Christine Job, a...
Working with your spouse poses a unique set of challenges. When you throw full-time RVing into the mix, it becomes an even bigger adventure. But as you'll hear on today's episode, there's nothing quite so freeing as hitting the road with the person you love to live untethered by your location or work.
In this episode, I'm joined by wives and business partners Je...

Nomadtopia Radio is all about showing you that there's more than one way to live a nomadic life. Even the most unlikely people can become full-time travelers or create their own unique version of a location-independent lifestyle.
In this episode, I'm joined by wife, mother, business owner, and full-time sailor Erin Carey. She shares her journey from suburban A...
Identity is often closely tied to our location: where we were born, where we grew up, where we live now. For those of us living nomadic lives, however, that sense of identity can feel out of reach. As we transition from place to place, we experience the grief of leaving our old selves behind and the excitement of stepping into a new world. But how can you find a sense of belonging when you don't belo...
When most of us think of real estate investing, we think of late-night phone calls from tenants, constant repairs, and huge price tags. But in reality, the barrier to entry in the real estate world is much lower than we think it is, and with the right systems in place, it can become a fantastic form of (mostly) passive income, even for full-time travelers.

Have you ever dreamed of moving to Europe? Many non-Europeans think it can't be done, but there are a lot of visa options for living in Europe, and with the right research and planning it's entirely possible to make your dream of moving to Europe a reality.
