Click here to download this episode.

If you travel when you’re younger you’re sure to have heard it before.

Oh, good to get it out of your system before you have kids!

Like the travel bug is one that goes away once you have a baby. Silly people.

Derek Loudermilk has spent the last several years traveling the globe while building his location independent business. Recently, he’s just been blessed with a newborn son.

And they’re back on the road.

Derek joins me today to talk about how he became location independent and how having his son has changed his travel habits.

How many times have you heard to get the travel out of your system? Let me know @ExtraPackofPeanuts!!

4 Years Traveling, Living, and Working Anywhere in the World

Ep-230

We’ve spent the last 4 years traveling around the world and working.

FOUR years!

I can hardly believe it.

It’s been a learning experience and today Heather and I are here to share our 27 lessons learned along the journey. Some came easy, some came hard, and some we’re still working on, but if even one of them resonates then they were lessons well learned!

One of our goals here at EPoP is to help people travel more while spending less. Aside from travel hacking, working for ourselves has been the key to getting the freedom we needed to travel the world. If you’re interested in business and travel then head on over to TheParadisePack.com and sign up to be notified when the sale goes live on May 31st!

Pencils of Promise with Adam Braun

Ep-174

A big part of the idea at EPoP is giving back to the community. And the way that we do that?

Pencils of Promise

We were fortunate enough with the Paradise Pack to raise enough funds so that in conjunction with Pencils of Promise we were able to fund the building of a school in Guatemala

We built a school!

And we couldn’t have done it without YOU! (We’really excited!)

Today, the founder of Pencils of Promise, Adam Braun, joins me for an overview of Pencils of Promise, how it came to be, and how travel has completely changed his life, time and time again.

Jason will be taking over the interview baton and interviewing Adam as well this week for a more in-depth look at the Pencils of Promise organization, so be sure to head over to Zero to Travel to check out the other half of this interview!
