RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Hey there, you can live in low cost-of-living countries, teach English, buy your dream camera, travel and photograph cool stuff all over the world.

I've been traveling for over a decade and know people who do exactly that.

You can talk to me here, messages or in travel if you have any questions. I can explain passports, where to go, all that jazz.

Easier to wait until you're 18 to travel, but you can get everything in order now and have a viable plan and resources to pursue photography as a passion if you're still into it later on.

For sure! It's a very comfortable lifestyle, and you can make it as serene or exciting as you like. My mood varies.

Let me know if you ever have travel questions, best of luck with your studies!
