In this episode we talk about how she quit her job in New Zealand, saved $8,000 NZD in 2 months (starting with no savings) and sold everything she owned to travel the world solo.

I don’t even know how I ended up here, but I thought this
post was great. I do not know who you are but
definitely you’re going to a famous blogger if you aren’t already ;)
Cheers!
So happy to hear that you found The Thought Card Podcast!
An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a co-worker who has
been doing a little research on this. And he in fact ordered me lunch
simply because I stumbled upon it for him… lol. So allow me
to reword this…. Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanx for spending
time to discuss this issue here on your blog. https://Nicolitalia.com/
Appreciate it! I’m so happy you guys found it helpful, cheers!
Yvette and Danielle I love this idea of accidental adventures. We do this quite a bit; or something similar. House sitting pulls us to places we never would have visited otherwise. Plus we often toss out the phone and just wander sans maps or plans in certain spots, being led to exciting new places. Rocking podcast guys.
Hi Ryan! Accidental adventures is definitely something that I do a lot but never found the right word for it – Yvette said it beautifully!
