Some great tips & tricks for solo travel and starting down the location-independent path from Jamie Varon
I left California in November 2008 with a one-way ticket and no plans to return for at least a year. I’d had a nasty breakup, found myself bored at my office job, stagnating in my personal growth, followed by another messy relationship. I was ready for change. I had lived in my hometown for 24 years and I was ready for new scenery.
My desire to travel abroad started as a bit of an escape—to start fresh somewhere new—and my interest in coming to Southeast Asia was fueled by Timothy Ferriss’ inspiring New York Times Bestseller The 4 Hour Workweek. Ferriss, like many other business backpacker/vagabond/digital nomad types, noted that Thailand and Argentina were two of the world’s best remaining destinations where Americans can easily stretch their dollar.
So rather than waiting for retirement and dreaming about living in some future beach paradise, I decided to mold my life into something where I could work and travel at the same time. I spent a year and a half building a business that I could run remotely from anywhere on the globe. And then I went for it!

Cody McKibben talks about his experience running a location-independent web company and working from anywhere as he lives & travels abroad. Also discusses motivations for building a location-independent income stream: the ability to travel freely & experience other cultures, advantages of geo-arbitrage and leveraging economics for a bootstrapped startup, freedom to choose what projects you take on and where you spend your time, and personal growth as you face new challenges and step outside your comfort zone.
