What It’s Like to Earn As a Digital Nomad

NOTE: This is a guest post

Traveling used to be a luxury that was either only granted when you had vacation time available on your job or if you worked in a travel-related industry. When working in a travel-related industry, traveling was part of the job description… it was required. And being able to travel only when you have enough vacation time is so limiting… both travel options aren’t ideal, especially if you absolutely love to travel. Fortunately, those two travel options aren’t the only options you have to be able to live a life of travel full-time.

Hiking up Mt. Hibok-Hibok in Camiguin

Those who have been to Camiguin often rave about its stunning white-sand beaches, freshwater springs, and sweet lanzones. But there’s a lot more to love in this tiny island province.

Food Trip: Camiguin

Interactive museums to visit around Manila

I’ve always thought of museums as typically boring destinations. Most museums I grew up with were just buildings that exhibited historical artifacts. Items are usually just displayed behind glass cases and shelves while paintings are hung up on walls for people to just admire from afar. Usually, photography isn’t even allowed inside museums.

Travel Guide: Sibuyan Island, Romblon

Sibuyan is one of the three main islands and the second largest in the archipelago comprising the province of Romblon in the Philippines. It’s often described as “the Galapagos of Asia” because of its rich biodiversity and how it has remained in isolation from the rest of the country since it was formed. Beyond the moniker, Sibuyan has one of the most unspoiled ecosystems in the Philippines and is home to the world’s densest forest, making it an amazing destination for travelers looking for unspoiled places and raw adventures.
