Have you ever thought about taking a trip around the world? How about on a motorcycle?
Mike Barr quit his real estate job in New York City and sold all of his belongings to embark on a round-the-world motorcycle tour. He’s now using his time on the road to build his photography and writing portfolio and has traveled over 40,000 miles at the time of this recording.
In this episode, Mike shares why he decided to prioritize adventure over college debt, how his hobbies influence his solo travel experience, why it’s important to create your own system when traveling, his advice on motorcycle touring, and more. Even if you never plan on traveling by motorcycle, this episode will help you unpack whatever is next for you on your journey.
What type of round-the-world adventure would you take? I'd love to hear your thoughts and hope you will share them by sending me an audio message.
