Long-term travel and moving abroad is a pretty common dream, but gosh it's overwhelming! Where to even begin? There are so many logistical (and psychological!) hurdles! Let's get over them.
The Wanderlust Workbooks are an ebook series in which we'll talk about the nitty gritty of traveling for months at a time, quitting your job to move to a foreign country and making your travel dreams happen.
We talk about:

This ebook and podcast do not cover what and how to pack, how to haggle that Persian rug down into your price range or how to land a cute Italian. Those are future ebooks! A bit of the ebook's content has been inspired by previous posts here on Yes and Yes, but the vast majority it super useful new-ness!
And the people who have purchased it? Here's what they have to say:

"I
really like it! I think it's a lot of good info that people are
scared to ask, or won't think of. I love the section on friendship
burnout. I think that is an aspect of travel that a lot of people don't
talk about! I really like the section on how to pick a travel buddy.
People might think of things like money, but priorities and level of
comfort in lodgings are vital. An awesome resource!"
- Julia H, The Epic Adventurer
"It's SO informative for first time travelers and you covered WAY MORE than I would have even ever THOUGHT to cover. Well done!"
- Lauren, Living Life Barefoot
"This is great! It's got about as much info in it as you can get without going into country specifics. You don't sugar coat the realities of travel but everything still feels very achievable."
