    so i am old enough to be your dad. if you were my kid, i would be super proud. i teach my kids 2 things. don't be in debt. don't be a burden on society. you need to do a TED talk.

    • @heyshayla

      Exaaactly!! I read a book called Big Magic and this is what I wrote in my journal:
      "I think they had faith I would always be able to take care of myself because they taught me to.
      The golden rule in my family is this: if you're supporting yourself financially and you're not bothering anyone else. Then you're free to do whatever you want with your life.
      Maybe because they didn't worry too much about me, I didn't worry too much about me either.
      It also never occurred to me to go ask an authority figure to go ask permission to become a writer.
      I'd never seen anyone in my family ask anyone for permission to do anything
      They just made stuff.
      So that's what I decided to do.
      I decided to just go make stuff."

    I 100% agree with using workaway as a means of travel. I’ve had the most amazing experiences using workaway, mostly working in hostels all over the globe. Workaway has allowed to travel to Norway, Turkey, Israel, and Morocco so far and I plan on doing it again! I always recommend it to people looking to travel on a budget. Another benefit of using workaway is long term travel and befriending the locals. It changes your whole experience :)

    Every ski resort has crews to clean rooms, make up beds and do laundry, every single day. Those crews usually get room and board, lift pass and minimal income (some do not pay any). This is everywhere
    Lots of yachts in the charter trade use stewardesses. That is a glorified word for house keeper and servant but, you are in great locations, you meet loads of people and you are in the warm and sun. Yes, you set and help serve breakfast, then clean the staterooms while the guests are off playing, you get to set and help serve lunch, you have some time to maybe windsurf/scuba dive/snorkel/lay in the sun, you set dinner and help serve it and in the end, someone has to wash and someone has to dry those dishes. Pay can be good and the tips can be marvelous.

      Like I mentioned, it is not always glamorous. You could try one of the bigger boats in protected waters, like the BVI. Usually, the motion onboard is not much more than you would experience in other modes of transport.

    It's especially sad cause then they don't understand that they can do it aswell. They just get jealous and think- yeah whatever her parents payed for that, she must be rich I can't do that. It's so sad cause so many people don't realize if they save up and work for it they could do it aswell, + it is really not that expensive and you can always work on the way (or volunteer).

    You missed noting that you are able to return to what I assume is your parents home as a base in the US? That’s a pretty big factor in supporting what you do.

    • @heyshayla
      @heyshayla  6 років тому

      This is 100% true. But I’m gone so frequently that they enjoy having me home when I am home.

    Nice when you are an American, but when you are from an overregulated country you have to pay shit like social insurance, health insurance, taxes on all your property. It's like 400$ a month, might not sound as much but average salary here is like 1000$. So if you wanna travel you have to save up a lot of money JUST to not go to jail, plus there are of course plane tickets, food etc. Or you can work abroad, which isn't much travelling since you are just working and can't go anywhere.

      @@robertleger4986 OK Robert, here is a way to travel and earn money! ESL. I would suggest you sign up with Angloville English Immersion Program. You can earn 1/2 of your ESL Certification through them. The other half you do online. Then, you can teach ESL on line with Angloville for about $10.00/hr + other online sites. See my blog Travels With the Red Suitcase, go to English Immersion Programs.

    Shayla! Great video, I just watched your TED Talk too, love your motivation and travel mindset - especially when it comes to accepting other ways of living all over the world. I sent you an email for a film we're shooting here in Spain, and I came across your resume on a Minneapolis Talent Agency site (I'm also from MN). Would love to chat over a coffee and tell you more. Thanks Shayla! - Ross Pirsig

Also can you tell me more about how you would network and meet people?

    • @heyshayla
      @heyshayla  6 років тому

      Find presentations, events, festivals, talks around the things you’re interested in. If you love fashion find events near you you can go to, go interview a professor. Just reach out to anyone in the industry and ask them out to coffee (pay for it) or email them with VERY CLEAR and direct questions. I get “how can I travel” a lot. Those are hard to answer and hard to get back to. “I’m interested in yoga/ finance/ nursing is there any way I could travel with this in South America ” is so much easier to answer and connect people. If I have a good answer!

    Hi, I am a full time traveller since one year and I've been living on savings so far. Now I'm looking for jobs, but whatever job I think about there's always one issue that I have no idea how to solve: if I want to work legally, how do I do this in all different countries and for any different kind of job? Are travellers doing this always under the table?

    • @heyshayla
      @heyshayla  5 років тому

      It depends on the job, you can work online. If you work in a place a lot of times it's in exchange for accommodation or food and depending on what it is you might just get paid a little cash fro it
