This chapter is called:
Working to Spread
Unless you're not very lucky and start your business immediately generate more than $ 500 per month, or that your savings are big enough to afford to stay afloat for a long time, you have to work somewhere.
Urggh! But it was you wanted to escape from work? What happened to the promise from the work area on the beach with a laptop and the coconut?
Never said that. The goal is not to escape from work, but traveling to work.
And forget the laptop on the beach: there is always too much light and you till the end of the room or from an internet cafe.
The most likely situation is that at some point will have to find a few thousand euros to go forward.
But do not worry, this does not mean going back, indeed, you may find yourself living the experience interesting.
The important thing is not working for too many months, because it's what you do that determines who you are.
They do not care if anyone is if you are a traveler you're two years at the factory or office.
After a few months all the dust of the road have also cleaned up well from the pores and orifices most remote and you are a worker or an employee with a past of travelers.
Not a traveler stopped temporarily.
No matter what you feel in the soul, the soul must live if you want to be happy.
Breast're just chat and trip.
Then, it is quite simple: you have to work where they earn.
This usually occurs in rich countries even though there are exceptions.
Generally, if you are in:
Asia: go to Australia, New Zealand or Japan. Even China recently.
Latin America: Vai in the United States or Canada.
Europe: Western Europe Vai
Africa: Vai in Western Europe
Rest of World: Vai in Western Europe
So, wherever you are, go in the richest countries and look for a job for a few months.
These are general guidelines, which are good for everyone, and especially for those without qualifications.
But if you have a job, you will see how many open roads.
Ie if you are pizza, chef, diver, a professor of English ... and six more specific the better, you can earn in other countries as well.
But if you're in this position you do not need my advice.
We see rather than what to do if your highest level of specialization is the cleaning of the toilets with bleach.
The first problem is the work permit, so, before exploring other ways, always thinks of the dear and beautiful Europe: no visa, no permits and Euro sounding.
You have dozens of countries rich available, hundreds of seasonal jobs and a population who do not want to do menial tasks delegated to them and even immigrants who often speak the language well or do not know what it means to work or are not reliable.
And you get paid in Euros, a very strong currency.
And 'by far the fastest and safe way to make some money in this part of the Milky Way.
Just to avoid Italy and the feeling of being on the road remains.
Think about it: you're in Bangkok, you have almost run out of money, take a flight to London from Kuala Lumpur AirAsia to 200 euros and you're in a Job Centre to seek work.
Places you in a house shared by other stragglers, works three months to clean tables and start again.
And improve your English.
Or go to the Canaries as I did, look for a job in some hotels, living in a house with surfers who do and leave rods.
And best Spanish.
Even while working on the go, learn, know new people and live your life in a new and different.
If you prefer to Australia, Japan, USA etc. ... you know which is more complicated but doable. They do a lot, so you can do it too.
The main difficulty is offset from the most exotic.
Therefore, prepared a few years for me were two, interspersed with employee travel.
Work where you earn well and spend where it's cheap.
It 'a kind of currency speculation and petty subtle but extremely rewarding.
I told you at the beginning: the system uses, you do not use.

It takes guts to make such a life, at least initially

I did and I do not think it takes guts to make such a life at the start but there wants to before, when you realize that you started is easier than you think and if you're content with the little money you can do you can continue traveling for a long time, if you cunning and inventiveness money comes by itself, can not even imagine the simple and imaginative ways that are there to get a bit 'of money. Once you're on you realize that you already had liver nell'incominciare your way, is in preparation and in the decision to drop everything that is the difficulty ... maybe that's not how things are but that's how I think .... eg all beautiful
