In this episode, Marisa interviews Matt Bowles from Maverick Investor Group.
Matt has been a full-time digital nomad with no permanent base since 2013. From Macedonia to Japan to Argentina to Ghana, Matt has visited an impressive 80+ countries while working remotely…and shares his story in our latest podcast episode.
Matt runs a remote real estate agency, which specializes in helping digital nomads invest in turnkey US residential real estate opportunities - so that you can receive passive income while you travel the world. 
In this episode, you’ll learn:

How Matt began traveling the world after getting fired from his job, and how his education and work experience until the age of 30 have absolutely NOTHING to do with the work he does today (it’s never too late for you to pivot careers!)
The importance of thinking creatively about potential remote careers (especially outside the realm of options that you think may be available to you)
The one book that changed his life trajectory entirely, leading to life as a digital nomad (hint: it was the same book that changed my life as well)
How he unexpectedly ended up moving to Cairo, Egypt for a year with his (then) girlfriend...and what happened when they broke up 3 years later while living on a remote island halfway across the world from home
The most important piece of advice he has for couples who are traveling as digital nomads together…and how to avoid THE biggest obstacle that can happen when you travel with your significant other
How to invest in turnkey residential real estate properties in the US (even if you’re not a US citizen or don’t live in that rental market), and how to use this as passive income while you travel the world
The travel program he participated in, which led to, in his words, “THE BEST YEAR OF HIS LIFE”...and what it was like to travel for 12 months across 4 continents with 40 of the same people for an entire year
How Matt balances meeting up with other travelers vs. experiencing more of the local communities, and why he makes it a point to connect with digital nomads from backgrounds other than his own
How to be a more socially and consciously mindful traveler when visiting and living in foreign countries
Matt’s top 3 favorite countries that he’s ever been (out of 80+ countries), as well as the top 3 countries he’d love to get to next
His one piece of advice for you if you’re thinking about whether or not to start traveling the world while working full-time
