People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No bullying or international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

Honestly this isn't to crazy. I know some people like this who moved to Thailand and Indonesia and they work in tourism and their lifestyles are pretty much exactly like this except taking a few people out fishing or up a mountain.

You could probably even do this in the us if you found the right place. You could definitely do it in nz if you pretended like you were looking for work.

There's loads on Airbnb experiences. When I was in LA I went out in some guys boat, he takes people out a few times a week and it pays for his boat. There was people doing guided walks round the city and stuff

NZ job seeker benefit system definitely would not let you do this lol. You've clearly never been through it.

You're not paying rent, eating well, and sipping wine on $360 per week lol.

That's about $800/mo for you yanks, or less than 10k/year, with a similar cost of living to a medium sized city in the US.
