I Quit My Job 3 Years Ago to Travel More: Here's What Happened

As a celebration of 2 years of creating travel video guides for travellers, I'm now going to share more about how I travel so often while being a mom of 2 kids. This month marks three years since I made the difficult decision to quit my job, and decided to pursue travel writing fulltime. As someone who has experienced lots of financial difficulty in the past, it was scary but it was something that fibre in my body felt it should to. Since that time, we've been on countless trips around Ontario, Canada and overseas; we've taken two Disney Cruises (with a 3rd upcoming), spent a full two months in Europe, and continue to take as many trips as we can while maintaining our home, and two kids in full time school. We have a home base in Ontario, Canada and I've created a life where we have the freedom to take as many trips as we want. 0:00 Intro 0:35 How often and where do we travel? 1:00 Our stance on taking the kids out of school to travel 1:15 The trips we've taken outside Canada since I quit my job 2:00 How I replaced my fulltime job with a small travel brand 3:41 How the landscape of travel content creation business has changed rapidly + why I pivoted to YouTube 4:29 Two trips that we will be going on in November 5:19 The cruise that we're taking in the spring 5:55 The Scandinavian country that we're going to next summer 6:31 One thing we DON'T do that most other travel creators do 7:39 Future destinations that we can't wait to cover in this channel
