We had this dream to travel already for a long time and a lot of people share this dream. But there is a big gap between saying it and eventually taking the leap to do it. Leaving everything behind to explore the world is a big step, and you need the courage to do it. So a lot of people are coming up with excuses like “I can’t quit my job” or “I don’t have enough money”. So we’ll show you in which ways you can save enough money to travel the world.
You’ve probably heard of Airbnb before, that booking site where you can stay at a local’s place for half the price of a hotel. But have you tried it yet? If you didn’t, that’s a shame! Because you could have saved loads of money by doing it. We understand that not every aspect of the Airbnb concept is clear for everyone, so we’ve made this beginners guide that will help you to make your first stay as pleasant as possible.

This is probably the best house sitting experience we could wish for!
Our last house sitting assignment was probably the best we could have. We did it here in Australia on a family run cattle farm, where we learned a lot of new skills and had heaps of new experiences. Not only did we have to occupy ourselves with the pregnant cows, but we also started bottle feeding two newborn lambs!
Motorbiking in Indochina is without a doubt one of the best things to do if you want to explore these countries properly.

As we are writing this, we’re already stuck for more than 12 hours on the Caspian Sea ferry to Turkmenbashi and it hasn’t even left the port yet. Getting from Azerbaijan to Turkmenistan or Kazakhstan isn’t as easy as taking a ferry from Dover to Calais. It takes a lot of patience and time (which you probably don’t have).
