@fulltimetrippin: If you’re curious about long-term travel, sabbaticals or taking a gap year, this mini series is for you! We received lots of questions and thought it’d be easier to break it down in one place. We gave ourselves 18 months between deciding to go and actually leaving. That timeline allowed us to save, plan intentionally, and make thoughtful decisions instead of rushed ones. Here’s what that looked like in real life: - Set a hard departure date (June 2025) - Told our families 6 months before leaving - Sold our home instead of renting it - Sold one car and kept the other - Put 100% of the house & car proceeds into a high-yield savings account - Sold or donated most of our belongings - Stored a few boxes and one car at our parents’ house - Quit our jobs (we both gave 3-month notices) Were we scared? Of course! But we were more scared of staying comfortable and wondering what if. We were very type A and career-oriented people, but playing it safe wasn’t going to get us the life we wanted. This mini series is for people who want practical answers, not just inspiration. We’ll be sharing: - How we planned the route and timeline - Logistics (packing, banking, health insurance, phone plans, etc.) - How we budgeted and saved for 12 months abroad - What daily life on the road actually looks like - Free links to our itineraries and budget breakdowns If a big trip keeps living in the back of your mind, this is your sign to start putting numbers and dates to it! #fulltimetravel #gapyear
