Avid adventurers.
Global circumnavigators.
Early retired. Full-time nomadic travelers.

We’re Chris and Steve. We’ve sold it all, retired from Corporate America, packed our two carry-ons, and fled out into the world in May 2021. We’ve been full-time traveling ever since as nomads.

We love to share hiking, housesitting and vegan-eating tips, while embracing our full-time traveling nomadic lifestyle. Together, we’ve visited over 62 countries and all 50 states and want to share tips with you about how to get out there and do the same.

Our annual budget is ~$50,000 to travel the world full-time. The secret to our affordable lifestyle is through strategic accommodations via housesitting and Airbnb stays. We throw in travel hacking to make things interesting and repositioning cruises to get from continent to continent.

Be sure to read Chris’ adventures in her best-selling books that have sold thousands of copies:
