We are a couple of 30-something vegan nomads who recently left Germany to explore the world, starting with SE Asia. Most of the time you will find us eating vegan carbs up and biking everywhere. We are semi-retired and support ourselves by freelancing, but are also figuring out the best way to diversify our income streams. Learn about it all here!
This is a house I want to buy, maybe. It’s a side-by-side duplex with two 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom units and listed on the MLS for $120,000. Long-term tenants currently live there and pay $700 and $750 including utilities. Another member from Bigger Pockets recently bought a side by side duplex in this same city, probably

It looks like I will need to get a job in Canada, and probably not as a bike courier. 🙁 We are gearing up to go through Canadian immigration and while there is no minimum income needed to sponsor a spouse, I’m pretty sure it will raise red flags if I’m earning $200 as a

Martin and I have been spending some serious time living at his parents’ house in rural, north east Germany. We spend our days living what I call an ‘idyllic country life’, but what Martin just calls ‘normal’. A post shared by Jessica (@jiskca) on Jul 21, 2017 at 5:35am PDT That includes feeding the geese,

We just cancelled our Romania and Serbia trip. 🙁 Feeling sad because I really wanted to go, and we lost about 200 EUR for it too. Originally we planned to fly into Timisoara and cycle over to Tivat with a stop off in Belgrade along the way. Total distance was around 700km and we had

A few of my girlfriends are single and looking for a partner. Since I haven’t dated anyone (asides my husband!) for a LONG ASS TIME, I get to live vicariously through my girlfriends in their dating escapades. I even sometimes chat with the guys pretending to be my gf, but ONLY because my gf’s let

We’re currently house sitting in Darmstadt, Germany! For a month we’re be staying in a 2-bedroom flat in central Darmstadt, just steps away from Luisenplatz. Darmstadt is a small city with a population 149K, south of Frankfurt. We actually cycled to Frankfurt the other day, just to hang out. How did we get this gig?

When we were in Chiang Mai, we met many other vegan nomads who do what we do too! Some travel all around to explore the world, while others plant themselves in Thailand and do border runs every 60 days. While nomadic living can be very cool, there are definitely pros and cons to the lifestyle.

We’re back in Germany now and have been for a week! Since we got here we haven’t taken a train at all and instead have ridden our bikes nearly 300 km to visit friends and family around NRW and Netherlands. It feels good to be back! Maybe I needed to leave Germany to appreciate it

When I think about our networth, I see it as a separate entity. Like a friend of ours who helps us design the life we want. Therefore I want to treat our networth with respect. I want to protect it, to help it grow and not deplete its reserves. There are a few options Martin

While we’re having a GREAT time in Asia, things aren’t going to plan on the income/cashflow front. We’re not FI yet, and at the moment we also have ZERO income. Eek! This is part by design, and part by circumstance. The original plan was that I would support us with my freelancing, and that we
