Ep. 56 – You Don’t Have to Travel Like a Backpacker to Travel Full-Time

Some people assume that long-term Travel means sacrificing comfort, constantly moving, taking exhausting flights, and living out of a tiny backpack. But full-time travel can look very different than that, especially if you’re designing it around your real life, energy, comfort level, and priorities.

In this episode, we talk about how to travel full-time comfortably, what sustainable long-term travel actually looks like, and why creating a travel Lifestyle that feels good to you matters so much more than trying to travel the "right" way.

If you’re planning full-time travel or thinking about taking a career break to travel in the next 2–18 months, this episode will help you think differently about comfort, pace, accommodations, travel style, and what makes long-term travel feel realistic and enjoyable.

Heather Markel Full-Time Travel Lifestyle Coach

Heather Markel spent over 25 years stuck behind a desk in her corporate career. In 2017, she made a bold decision to quit her job and take a six-month career break to travel the world. Instead, she found a new way of life. Since that time, she’s been to 39 countries (and counting) on six continents, including being marooned in New Zealand for two years during the pandemic. Over six years later, she still has no permanent address.

Today, Heather is a New York Times featured Full-Time Travel Lifestyle and Business Coach who works with professionals who want to start or sustain extended travel or work remotely while traveling. She’s a best-selling author and a TEDx speaker focused on the opportunities of full-time travel. She teaches her clients the mindset, money and mastery they need in order to afford, sustain and navigate that lifestyle. Her mission is to help frustrated professionals seeking freedom, flexibility and fun to “ditch their desk and discover their destiny®” through full-time travel.
