Forging a new life on the road with Anna Fedorova

Research shows millennials are travel-obsessed. Not just a quick gap yah at 18 or 19, but also possibly a year out later in our careers, or even a complete lifestyle change. Heading out on a trip is one thing, but not coming back is another. This is what fellow freelance financial writer Anna Fedorova did in 2017, packing up her entire life and traveling around Asia, and then Europe with her boyfriend - in a van. Currently in Greece, Anna sees no reason to head back to the grind of London. Her life now is cheaper, full of rock climbing, reading and having new experiences.  I asked Anna all about her travels, how she found work on the road, any relationship tips about living with her boyfriend in such close quarters (!), and what financial preparation she needed to do before heading abroad. £900 a month for all of their expenses sounds like a dream. Anna wrote a lot more financial detail in this article for New Money here: https://www.new-money.co.uk/nm-blog/saving-cash-as-a-digital-nomad/?fbclid=IwAR1Hmu0xz3cOO3ubljgy0BpFAwRoL2P4zRcV2WS9p1uOWOKG-FT19Q2JisQ She also has a blog about everything from a leaking van roof to making new mates: http://girlclimber.com/?fbclid=IwAR0QjDCpAiBIYWiKZO0KsM4UeGDMAcHnhBZZ8RhlIAX3iZdliR_qbU_fIvg Hayley Millhouse, head of adviser services at OpenMoney, our sponsor, also shares some practical tips about how to prepare for a big trip!
