The Best Ways To Go Camping Around The World

Camping is a unique option for both the more adventurous travellers or for those camping as beginners. It’s extremely popular among backpackers in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States, but can be found in most countries around the world. While campgrounds are certainly the most common way to camp, some hostels also offer the opportunity to camp in their yard. As long as you have a tent, you’ll pay a fraction of the normal hostel fee and still have access to their bathroom and kitchen facilities. If you’re travelling long-term and really want to budget, this is something worth looking into. In some countries such as Australia, it’s also popular to just camp in your vehicle in designated areas. When I was in Australia in 2009, we just parked our vehicles on the sides of roads and slept but I’ve heard the police are clamping down on this. [Read more…] about How to Camp Around the World

LL 015: Travelling Around the World with a Family | An Interview with Greg Denning

by 2 Comments

In the 15th episode of the Live Limitless podcast I chat with Greg Denning of DiscoverShareInspire.com and GregDenning.com.

Greg and his wife are traveling around the world with six kids! Need I say more? They have been traveling for more than 2700 days and are currently in the middle of a long road trip from Alaska to Argentina. What inspires me about Greg is not only the fact that he’s making full-time travel work with a family of eight but also because he remains super enthusiastic and his outlook on the world is very positive.

This episode focuses entirely on travel. We talk about:

  • How Greg and his family choose where to go
  • How the prepare for things like visas, vaccinations, etc.
  • How they prepare for the different cultures
  • Tips for those afraid to make such a bold move
  • Tips for staying safe
  • How they find accommodation and so forth
  • And how to bring the travel mindset home with you

I really hope you enjoy this episode. Please leave any comments for Greg below and leave a review in iTunes.

Turning Text into a Business | An Interview with Peter Kao of Postertext

by 1 Comment

A couple months back I was browsing through some AMA’s on Reddit, which led me to Canadian laptop entrepreneur Peter Kao, who started a cool and unique business that he can run from anywhere in the world.

His business is called Postertext, which sells silhouette posters wrapped in text from famous books. Now you can hang your favourite classic novel on the wall!

I thought it was a really cool idea so I thought I’d interview him to help inspire all you soon-to-be-entrepreneurs out there.

Welcome Peter.

How did you get such a cool idea for a product?

It was my friend’s birthday, and she’s notoriously bookish. I was thinking of what to buy for her, but decided instead that I would make something for me. I came across the text of her favorite book online and decided to illustrate a silhouette wrapped in the original words from the author. I thought it was a unique gift and so I decided to print it out and give it to her as a birthday gift. She was really happy with it, and so I thought other bibliophiles might enjoy the same sort of art prints as her.

Jumping Out of a Plane Without a Parachute

by 2 Comments

Made you look.

What did you think you were going to read? A new form of skydiving? suicide?

You know what I actually think made you click on this post?

Crazy ass risk. A leap. A bold thing to do with ones life.

Let’s face it. Most of us don’t take enough risks. We play it safe. We conform.

Why?

Now, of course, jumping out of a plane without a parachute is stupid. It’s not really a risk in my eyes – it’s just plain suicide and makes no sense at all.

But why don’t we take more liveable risks? Risks that make us live limitless.

Make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

Jon Krakauer from Into the Wild.

We only have one life. We don’t get stronger as we age. We’re strong now.

In today’s world with endless opportunities and connections to the entire world, why conform and sit steady as we watch others live remarkable lives… [Read more…] about Jumping Out of a Plane Without a Parachute
