Is Something Missing?
Are you looking for something specific and don’t see it here? Click here to let us know! We’d be happy to recommend a product or resource we believe in.
If we don’t have one readily available, we’ll dive in to research. It’s one of those little things that makes us happy. Like swimming in a fount of sometimes useful knowledge in a unicorn onesie with a sparkly wig on. Except, you know, without the onesie or wig. Or the fount …

Um, well, just trust us on this.

We like researching and learning about new things so if we don’t have a readily available resource recommendation, we’ll get you one! (Or more. We like rabbit holes. lol)

Want Your Product Or Service Listed?
Want to sponsor us or have us review your product or service?

We believe in building long-term relationships based on trust. This means we share both the good and the bad about everything we review or offer to our beloved audience.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, contact us and prepare yourself for brutally honest feedback.

Please remember that adventure, exploration, and being a digital nomad in general doesn’t have to be expensive to be profitable or enjoyable.

Having higher end stuff is nice and sometimes – but not always – better but there’s nothing like being able to keep yourself and your family safe, fed, and as comfortable as possible. Especially when others are not as fortunate.

Talking down to someone or insulting their efforts or how they are working to provide for themselves and their family is like looking down at a McDonald’s employee getting honest pay for honest work. Let’s encourage each other and be proud of our efforts no matter how much (or how little) we spend.
