This is part 1 of my conversation with Nora Dunn. Listen to Part 2.
In 2006, today’s guest left a career in financial planning to embrace the desire of perpetual travel, which she has been doing for the past 8 years. This includes train journeys across Canada and Australia, relief work in Asia, life in New Zealand, on a boat in the Caribbean, wandering across Europe. And more.
This show is about helping others to create lives of travel, whatever that means to you – and today’s guest is a shining example.
Nora Dunn is an expert in full time financial stability — and doing so from the road, full time — and today she lives her message and helps others accomplish the same through her blog, TheProfessionalHobo.com. She’s released two books, How to Get Free Accommodation Around the World, and for any train journey lovers like me — Tales of Trains: Where the Journey is the Destination.
I’m excited to get Nora on the line today to share with us her story, and how you might create for yourself a life of travel, full time and financially sustainable.

What We Cover:
What caused Nora to leave her busy career helping others manage their finances to create the lives of their dreams to pursue her own dreams of travel
What fostered her love of the journey, the challenge of meeting new experience
How Nora knew she could make a life of full time travel a reality, and what she did to make travel writing work for her by carving out a niche, and how to start identifying that for yourself.
Words from an Explorer:
“I always take the standard one to two weeks a year that you get to travel. But I always returned home with more questions than answers."
"The beauty of being a full time traveler is you are the architect of your own life. Travel fast, travel slow, wherever you want to go, anything’s possible."
