This is the first time I’ve heard someone say that but about “allowing yourself to be uncomfortable”. Our incessant need to bring more ease and comfort to our lives somewhat imprisons us, setting us on the path to spending more time working so we can maintain that luxury. I think this is a big deal. You’ve just released a concept that I think we’ll be seeing more of. Know that you said it before everyone else. 😁
Oh and probably a given for musicians/artists/performers out there but STREET PERFORMING! My god, vanlife and street performing is a match made in heaven. I made an absolute fortune doing that around Europe for 4 years. Bought two houses out of it haha
Graduating high school this spring and am going to major in nursing so I can be an RN. My plan is to graduate, get my RN license, and work at a hospital for a year or two to get experience and work on a van during that time. After that year or two, I'll be able to join a travel nurse agency and live out of my van :)
Alright, I have to admit Akela makes this the best "make money as a nomad" video I've seen yet. ❤️🐾 🤣 But no seriously I adore how you come at these videos. Too many times people try to be super extra professional and lose me instantly. You're so damn personable in every video, love it!
That's what my girlfriend does, medal and legal transcription. She's gotten really fast at it now too. Earns around $15-20 an hour. Pretty good considering you can do it in the beach and as much or as little as you like
I can't believe I just sat here for half of the day and watched every video from the beginning (and subscribing) Wow, what an amazing journey - I am so impressed! You really have a way of not only telling your story, but sharing valuable insights. I love the work ethic, quality, determination, and super creativeness - while maintaining such a positive and uplifting spirt. I am so looking forward to your future adventures.
I'm in BC and here on Vancouver Island whale Watching is a huge seasonal opportunity. I used to manage 2 of them and I would hire around 40 ppl each summer, and I was only 2 companies out of dozens on the Island. True, we primarily need marine biologists, but there are a ton of support staff required too. In the US, whale watching is quite big in WA, (which watch the same whales we do), CA and Hawaii. Cheers!🚙🇨🇦
All of this is fantastic. I would say living simple/minimal/curated goes hand in hand. Don't buy into the "aesthetic" and own what you NEED, get what is comfortable for you to use and afford, You will be ok! And it's fun!
A very helpful video! Most videos on the topic of making money on the road are super vague with no real jobs to look into! I appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos!
I have a theater degree and it's contract to contract, inbetween contracts I can do whatever I want (depending on money). It's really what is your skillset and how can you make some money off that Nomadically.
Lander Bar!! I grew up there and lived in Lander 30 years! When I tell people where I'm from, so many people say, where the Lander Bar is? I love it there!, Lol👍😊❣️
Thank you for making this! You have a new subscriber. 😃 I’m 65. Been living in my van for a year and three months in a stationary place, but getting ready to go on the road soon. You’ve given a lot of good ideas about working on the road; I appreciate that. Can’t remember if you mentioned freelancing, but that is also a possibility. Writing or proofreading is what I might like to do. Also crafting. Being mobile means you have the ability to go to many different shows, or you can even do it online as in an Etsy shop or website. I’ve also been looking into print on demand. I watched the video of your two-year update and really liked seeing what you have done. You have fantastic skills, a lot of creativity, and commonsense. A great combination! I know regrets are fruitless, but I really wish I had started this journey many years ago when my health and strength would’ve allow me to do it more the way that you are. Peace ☮️ Up ⬆️
Great resourceful video that can help so many people! I posted it on the FB group Solo Female Vanlife for a girl trying to get started. Have loved watching your van build, your determination, resourcefulness, independence and skills are amazing!
This Video is ONE FOR THE BOOKS, Though Your Jobs really are not really for me. It did give me an INSPERATION for something when I go on the road! And Now Its time for the BOOK WORK! THANKS BUNCHES! HAPPY TRAVELS! TRUST YOUR GUT! " You Said That! " THANK YOU! BE SAFE!
Jobs that would be good for nomad lifestyle on the road lifestyle van life I'm looking forward to maybe doing some when I get out there I'm retired I have Social Security and I have a small pension check comes in monthly right now I'm working at the gas and oil as a security guard anywhere from $12-$15 an hour to usually 12 hours a day I'm working three days a week and this is how I am building my van earn & build Another good suggestion for employment is auto auctions I have driven for several auto auctions just for spare money they're all over the place I called and there is one big one in Phoenix Arizona but every state has several Pennsylvania has quite a few over the whole state yeah that's a good place to go you just drive cars through the auction on like one day a week and then after they sell vehicles or buy vehicles they have you deliver them are used to drive as far as down to Myrtle Beach and up to Michigan not a bad little sidekick job
Linnea THANK YOU for all of your videos! Currently doing my first van build, 2021 Ram Promaster 2500, and I've really used all your videos to help make my build a little easier! I appreciate it!
I will be getting my nursing degree soon and after about 2yrs of nursing experience I’m going to do travel nursing for contracts for about 10 weeks long. I’m able to get my compact nursing license and therefore be able to work in any compact state which is almost every state except the west coast. Travel nursing pays extremely well and me and my boyfriend are so excited to start our van life after those 2 years! We’re planning to take winters off for adventuring and being able to be home with family.
I just applied to be a live-in carer. You can work 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off anywhere in UK (not sure if other countries have the same thing) . This will leave me time to do the other things I love doing and mean that I get to be in a bedroom and take a shower sometimes! The money is pretty decent also.
I have fallen in love with you. I recently started watching your videos. You have a pure soul and that reflects in your content. I have spent last 2 days watching all your videos. Good d bless you dear and love from India.
My current plan is to get my degree in animation, graphic design, and game design (my college offers all under one diploma). Work a couple years in the San Francisco area out of my mom's garage while doing my build during weekends. Eventually I will ask to "work from home" and invest in a VPN so no matter where I am they will think I am in San Francisco. Or I could use this time to make a brand and a social following so when I have work experience under my belt I could do free lancing.
My wife and I are graphic designers and (using the plague as a kick in the pants to get rolling) started our small business - which we can do anywhere! Thanks for being an awesome inspiration for so many people ^_^
I been watching and following your van build series as a form of entertainment (it's going to be couple of years before I start my nomadic life) as I been watching a lot of van/rv life and workaway programs. But this video really resonated with me with what you said (except for working in the devil's lair, amazon lol). thanks for the video!
The program I work for now does two week on two week off schedules for field staff and almost all of the people in the position are nomadic either living in a van/bus or truck on the road. The schedule really works for the lifestyle!
I live in a house within a mile (as the crow flies) of the Sugar Beet Plant. I have seen the signs for seasonal help. But I can tell you, processing the beets really smells. Literally. The air is heavy with an odor that I can only describe as boiled peanuts, manure, coffee and sour milk. Had I known about the plant prior to moving here, I would not have. But it's great seasonal income.
Hi just saying you actually inspired an idea for me that I'm very excited about with this video. Won't go into details but thank you very much for this. I feel a lot more comfortable with my plan to hit the road
It’s taken several years for me to get my license and certifications but I officially started van life this year and working hurricane Ida as an insurance adjuster. I had just gotten my van and set it up temporarily and lived in it in Gonzales LA for 2 months and pocketed my pay. Came home and tore it all apart and enjoy the help this beautiful Godess (Linnnea)provides for me while I build it out properly now. Goal is to have the van ready for hail season April 1st.
Massage therapist as well, our high season is Oct-May, after that I can take off to vacation/travel. Or you can travel and work at different spas/resorts that only open “seasonally.” I know a few servers/waiters that travel and work at different places seasonally as well. So many options!
I’m watching this because I’m about to start work as a wilderness therapy guide in Utah!! And trying to figure out my living situation lol vanlife seems like it would be perfect!
Love that you've made exercise science /exercise physiology online :) I'm a year away from getting my Ex Phys qualifications and want to travel Australia for a year afterwards. Super glad to hear it's possible to do online :)
That is so much my dog. I need more videos. I watch other people but you’re the one that is infectious. You make my day better. Doing a trailer build out will be on the road myself soon. Picking up a panel saw tomorrow. Should be out there in a couple of months.
You and Akela are made for each other 🥰. Lovely to see how you both enjoy each other’s company.......and Akela can be so funny. How can you not resist cuddling and kissing a dog like that 😙🙂.
Hey Linnea i just wanted to congratulate with you for what you're doing. This is very inspiring.. after travelling along australia for 2 years, and new zealand for a year and a half, i'm doing a van conversion in italy, and planning to leave with Bobo, but i can tell you one thing: in europe things are very different than the US, starting from the conversion itself. Legally speaking, you can't even make a van conversion actually.. and the salaries are lower, so i have to find a way to save as much as possible. Anyway, keep inspiring people as you're doing!!
Film can be a seasonal job, if you're up north when the industry slows during the winter. Great pay, but you have to know what you're doing.(lower positions pay less, but decent if you've got no experience)
Speaking as an old person, a lot of the relatively wealthy van lifers are living on their planned retirement income. (That’s my plan, if it comes to it.) Some are young retirees who made or inherited a lot of money relatively early in life. Some have actual corporate jobs they do remotely, or well paying consulting gigs. I realize that’s not useful advice to young people starting out; it’s just the answer to your question: by and large, that’s who those people are. A lot of them tend to congregate among themselves (or just not congregate), but if you do get chatting with them, they’re as likely as not to offer to buy dinner for whatever young folks they come across.
Great video. Being in the uk there arent as many seasonal jobs, and i have no idea what job i want or am able to do online. I currently work fulltime as a delivery driver and my plan is to continue doing that for a while when i get my van so that i only change one thing at a time and go on mini adventures when I'm not at work. (I also am a volunteer on some of my days off which is about 60 miles away from work so i would use the van to get there too.) Then maybe as i speak to more vanlifers here i will find something that will appeal and can change jobs in a year or so.
I teach classes online for a college as an adjunct instructor. The plan is to continue this whenever the kids are grown up enough so my husband and I can go on extended trips! How much fun will it be to have a Zoom session with my students from a different location each time!
Damn I’ve got a huge crush on you, just the way you express yourself so well and clearly and your natural beauty...😊 also in love with Akela, what a lovely funny dog !😂 Anywayss... Physiotherapy online ! Damn that is so clever... loved your vid ! Loved how it’s different from other vid on this subject... also definitely come to Canada to tree plant with us when the border reopens !!
I had a question about pets, if anyone can help answer. What about if you have a pet and want to live in your van and work? It doesn’t seem as safe to leave your pet in your car long periods of time, especially when it’s hot. That’s been my hesitation. I have two little dogs and don’t know how I would work and leave them in the van. I guess it has to be part time, maybe 4 hours at a time? I don’t know. Any advice would be great! Thank you.
Hey! Super good question. I’m not sure how much help this will be - but first of all I think your idea of part time gigs is great! Also, the wilderness therapy job I worked in allowed dogs to go into the field too, so if you ask, a position might consider your dogs joining you. (Individuals were only allowed one dog though, but ya never know!) Also, there is a vanlifer I follow and she used to work as a writer. When the summer rolled around, her office allowed her to bring her dogs in during the day as long as they were respectful... and of course they loved having the dogs in the office! Good luck with this! I know fur babies can be a handful when it comes down to logistics... but we both know it’s worth it :)
@@michaelharkness4811 funny you should say that cause I own 2 doggie daycares facilities so that’s why care for my dogs during the day have never been an issue. Haha I’ve been thinking about giving it up in a few years to live a less stressful minimal life. I bought a van a few months ago, will be converting it soon. But you’re right, daycare would be the best option. It’s just so pricey.. I should know lol
i wish i could find something seasonal and part time. i have severe chronic pain. i have a masters in counseling and worked with the disabled, but cant work in an office anymore. but hey, i would love your services, nutrition, exercise and motivation. its hard to get motivated :)

Wildland firefighting is a great seasonal job where you also get to travel a bunch and make a good amount of money in 6 months.
Yess!! This is such a good suggestion!
and work with fire men 🔥

Such a great plan! I agree with Dan, Good for you! You'll have to keep us updated :)
@@Linneaandakela will let you know for sure, can't wait to see you and Akela's adventures until I can go on my own :)
And as a RN you can work per diem 1 day a week or even a few times a month making great $ allowing you a lot of days off to travel In Between :)
Do it while you’re young!!!! I wish I had!!!!
Alright, I have to admit Akela makes this the best "make money as a nomad" video I've seen yet. ❤️🐾 🤣 But no seriously I adore how you come at these videos. Too many times people try to be super extra professional and lose me instantly. You're so damn personable in every video, love it!
Haha thanks so much for this! I appreciate it a lot :)
A friend does a few hours each day as medical transcriptionist. Everything online so can work remotely (as in,...from a van in the woods).
That is awesome! Such a great idea
That's what my girlfriend does, medal and legal transcription. She's gotten really fast at it now too. Earns around $15-20 an hour. Pretty good considering you can do it in the beach and as much or as little as you like

Omg you are so amazing 🥺 am still young but you inspired me a-lot💜 thank very much
You rock young lady, keep on keeping on.
Nice One Barrel shirt. Their original location is just a couple of blocks from me. Great place, great beer.

Film can be a seasonal job, if you're up north when the industry slows during the winter. Great pay, but you have to know what you're doing.(lower positions pay less, but decent if you've got no experience)
Thanks you really provided detailed ways to support this lifestyle! 👏 Most of these videos I see on UA-cam are pretty generic.

That sounds like a wonderful plan. I wish you the best of luck, and I hope you have fun troubleshooting the process!
I teach classes online for a college as an adjunct instructor. The plan is to continue this whenever the kids are grown up enough so my husband and I can go on extended trips! How much fun will it be to have a Zoom session with my students from a different location each time!
Damn I’ve got a huge crush on you, just the way you express yourself so well and clearly and your natural beauty...😊 also in love with Akela, what a lovely funny dog !😂

I had a question about pets, if anyone can help answer. What about if you have a pet and want to live in your van and work? It doesn’t seem as safe to leave your pet in your car long periods of time, especially when it’s hot. That’s been my hesitation. I have two little dogs and don’t know how I would work and leave them in the van. I guess it has to be part time, maybe 4 hours at a time? I don’t know. Any advice would be great! Thank you.
Like a kid you have do doggie day care.
Hey! Super good question.
I’m not sure how much help this will be - but first of all I think your idea of part time gigs is great!
Also, the wilderness therapy job I worked in allowed dogs to go into the field too, so if you ask, a position might consider your dogs joining you. (Individuals were only allowed one dog though, but ya never know!)
Also, there is a vanlifer I follow and she used to work as a writer. When the summer rolled around, her office allowed her to bring her dogs in during the day as long as they were respectful... and of course they loved having the dogs in the office!
Good luck with this! I know fur babies can be a handful when it comes down to logistics... but we both know it’s worth it :)
@@michaelharkness4811 funny you should say that cause I own 2 doggie daycares facilities so that’s why care for my dogs during the day have never been an issue. Haha I’ve been thinking about giving it up in a few years to live a less stressful minimal life. I bought a van a few months ago, will be converting it soon. But you’re right, daycare would be the best option. It’s just so pricey.. I should know lol
@@Linneaandakela they’re definitely worth it! Thank you for the tips! I also admire how your build was resolved around Akela’s comfort. Best dog mom!
@@ngadao1579 yes but before leaving them in a vehicle I rather pay. Not like going do it everyday.
i wish i could find something seasonal and part time. i have severe chronic pain. i have a masters in counseling and worked with the disabled, but cant work in an office anymore. but hey, i would love your services, nutrition, exercise and motivation. its hard to get motivated :)
