You always have a great point of view on travel and unconventional lifestyle design, DeeAnne. Your experiences are a nice perspective from the majority of people living outside of the normal work/life mold in their 20′s.

Having spent long weekends driving down to Naples, I know why you picked that as a temporary base. Fun place to be!

Good to get to “know” you a bit better! Thanks for the interview, John.

Thanks for the great interview, John, and thank you DeeAnne for sharing.

I am about to hit the road long term in the next six months or so. Being 55 and having a family makes it challenging, specially when the members of my family don’t all share the same passion and enthusiasm for travel. I am going to do it, because I want to and to show them that it can be done.

In the meantime, I am taking short trips with friends to start appreciating the freedom that comes from having a different perspective. It is good to know that I won’t be an oddball out there.

Great piece. Always nice to find out a bit more about DeeAnne since she seems to avoid me while in Edinburgh!
She’s got a lot of knowledge, a lot of experience, and a heck of a lot of guts – so I have no doubt she’s going places (literally and figuratively!)

There are generation Xers out there traveling and living abroad also.

I found it much easier to relocate to another country when I was in my twenties. Not that I am approaching 40, those changes are harder to make. It is great to hear about people like Deanne and you and Sean.It is definitely possible, it just requires more planning and investment.

Really great interview! I’m excited to read about a person who is not right out of college, with loads of professional and life experience. It makes me feel good about making a dramatic decision to change my situation in later life, instead of feeling like it’s not practical. Proves that we can design our lives any way we want at any point…

Great interview. I think that the idea of being a financial planner for the nomad/lip demographic is an awesome idea. There would probably be a lot of people interested in something like that. Maybe even write an ebook on the subject or something? .-= Nate´s last blog ..what does lifestyle design mean to me? =-.
