You’ve watched the YouTube videos. You’ve done the Google searches. You’ve read the blogs and seen the people loving life in “paradise”.

But how on earth would you actually pay for it?

I’ve spent nearly two decades working remotely from around the world. But this guide isn’t just my story. I’ve brought in people I’ve met from all corners of the world to share exactly how they did it, and put it all in one place.

It’s not a list of 101 side hustles, and it’s not a promise of six figures from a laptop on a beach.

Ralph and Tina started with a one-day course and a teaching certificate that can cost less than a tank of gas. They had no teaching experience. All they needed was the language they’d spoken their whole lives.

It’s real work, and this guide doesn’t hide that. As Tina puts it: “I don’t want to tell people like, you’re going to make 10 K and then they don’t realise the amount of work that they’re going to have to do.”

You’ll also read about the person who ran out of money halfway through a build, and the one who moved back in with family. Their words and results are their own, not a promise of yours.

By the last page, you’ll know:

• What income you already have that would follow you abroad

• The number you actually need to earn

• Five things someone might pay you for, from the life you’ve already lived

• Which of five paths to start with, chosen in ten minutes

• How to get your first paying yes

• How to get paid abroad, and what to do about taxes and banking

You don’t need to quit anything today. Most of the people here started while they still had a paycheck.
