Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION: travel the world - currently in Thailand through the end of August.
ABOUT ME: I am outgoing, fun-loving, and spontaneous.
In January of 2015, my husband and I left the "default" lifestyle behind to adopt the digital nomad lifestyle and literally travel the world, experiencing places less traveled, meeting people, and having adventures. We call this style of roaming the world opportunistic traveling. It's not for everyone, to be sure.
"Getting to why we made this leap is a little complicated," says Evo Terra. "In short, our kid is grown and doing quite well as a responsible and mature adult. Over time, we'd divested ourselves of any real property. The work we do (she's an instructional designer and I'm a digital strategist) is the kind of work that we can do from anywhere on the globe. So... why not?"
In lieu of being independently wealthy, we sold off literally everything we own to build up the runway to afford this excursion. And by literally, we almost mean literally. Save a few personal effects that simply can't be replaced, we cashed out on The Stuff accumulated in over two decades as a couple. TVs, furniture, my car, Evo's bass guitars... If it didn't fit in either of our single suitcases or laptop bags, it's not traveling with us.
We document our lives through our blog, podcast, videos, and pictures and all content can be found at TheOpportunisticTravelers.com.
