Concise, Needed and Impactful

With so many people looking for opportunities and autonomy, this book is needed now more than ever.

Mike provides information that is impactful and easy to understand, yet hasn't been provided in such a concise format.

Lessons from real life experience!

While this book is geared more towards college students and those who are very early in their careers, it's still chock full of hard won insights and great tips for those considering living and working internationally. It has inspired me to give some serious thought to how I might be able to make this work in my own life. The bases are really well covered with everything from trip planning and Visas to specific information about some of the most popular country destinations and a ton of great travel tips as well. I'd definitely recommend a listen even if you're just thinking about what life might be like for an extended adventure outside of the US.

THINK BIG!

The book "Global Career: How to Work Anywhere and Travel Forever" is a comprehensive and practical guide for anyone looking to travel while working or studying abroad. The digital nomad lifestyle is becoming increasingly popular and trendy, allowing individuals to find jobs abroad and explore the countries where they temporarily reside.

Today, many people are contemplating the freedom to live and work wherever they choose, embracing a lifestyle that brings joy and fulfillment. Traveling empowers us in this way. However, the fear of leaving behind the comfort of a settled life – with established work, home, family, and friends – still holds many back.

The author shares his own success stories, along with tips and tricks on organizing travel, preparing paper works including visa issues, finding accommodation, networking, and financial planning. I found these insights highly valuable. For instance, while I was familiar with tourist and working visas, I learned about the "working holiday visa" through this book. This visa allows individuals not only to visit and stay in another country but also to legally work there (although not all countries offer this option; the book provides some information on those that do).

The book presents various options for working and traveling tailored to your goals, education, lifestyle, career pursuits, and dreams. I found it to be an essential resource, making numerous notes for myself.

Enticing Title

This book has fueled my desire for location independence. It is a how to book from someone who is creating a trail for the rest of us to follow, and in turn, blaze our own trails. I have listened to Mike Swigunski now on EPOP, and his journey is inspirational.

Wish I had this book before.

Whereas The Four Hour Workweek highlighted the remote lifestyle can work for select entrepreneurs, this book highlights that almost anyone can live a remote lifestyle.

From teaching English to executive positions in remote firms and everything in between Mike shares how you can travel and work.

Wish I had this book when starting my travels. Highly recommended.

What a wonderful book! I wish I had this years ago

Thank you for such an information packed Audible book! I listened to this as I walk my Guide Dog for the Blind Puppy in Training!

I will be passing this suggestion on to our University of Michigan Graduate, and our University of Kansas Student— the world has certainly changed since we were in college back in 1976 -1980!

Thank you — so many helpful tips, great ideas — the world is your oyster!
