Aspiring to explore the world, whether it be for vacation or long-term? Today, we share how to make it happen.

I'm joined by my dear friend and fellow global backpacker, Carey Carpenter, otherwise known as CareBear Abroad. She is a proud "traveling addict (with no need for an intervention)" who packed her bags with a one-way ticket to Prague. Three years later, Carey has made a living for herself on the road by teaching English and creating her own inspiring travel brand. I chat with Carey about the lessons, triumphs and challenges of life as a female nomad.

WHAT WE TALK ABOUT:

Carey's background and finding her passion of travel through study abroad and a life-changing trip to Croatia
Taking the leap to teach abroad with the TEFL program
How to make money on the road & budget for travel
Tips for independent female travelers
How bloggers and digital nomads
Social media as a power tool in travel entrepreneurship
Marketing yourself and working with brands
& a few Czech phrases! (hey, you never know when you'll need 'em)
