I'd like to learn more about sabbaticals. In recent discussions with friends (aged between 25-36, professionals, some with children, mostly without) and family, many of them indicated that they would be happy to leave for six months and return to the same job. However, they had no idea where to begin. 'Six months' got me thinking about a trip we did through the North and South Island of New Zealand during the first wave of COVID-19, and so I published a post about a potential sabbatical itinerary ...

Do we have nomads here who have been continuously travelling with their children for 5+ years? I've been nomadic for the same amount of time but without kids. This topic came up at an event I was attending recently and I was astounded by how many folks were keen to begin their nomadic journey with their young children. Great to hear! For those who fall into this category, I'd like to learn more about how you navigated passed known obstacles like education, building social networks, finding ...

It's encouraging to see so many Founders and business owners part of this travel community. I often wonder how the overall experience in establishing, managing and growing a tech company on the road is different to if you were stationed in one city. Do you have access to the same resources? Can you validate the same way? What are the differences in raising capital? How will you find a co-founder? What if all your customers and partners are in one country? I was recently invited to be part of a ...

Mine: 1. Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, USA 2. Bondi to Bronte, Sydney, Australia 3. Casablanca promenade, Casablanca, Morocco 4. Vondelpark, Amsterdam, Netherlands 5. Dubrovnik (non-old city), Croatia _____ This was a much harder exercise (no pun intended) than I originally thought. I've left out so many incredible runs but these are my favourites, with SanFran taking the gold medal. I bloody love this run! It's a got a bit everything; fresh pine smell, crisp mornings, fellow runners, incline, ...

Hey guys, I've been a fulltime traveller for almost five years now; leaving behind a career in finance and IT sales. Being a traveller on either side of the pandemic meant a lot of things...good and bad. One definite con has been the increasing price of accommodation, specifically related to Airbnb. When I first began roaming the world in 2019, Airbnb was my default option for places to stay, and it worked well. Lots of supply. Reasonable prices. Reliable. Safe. Since the pandemic, it's just not a ...

Hello Travel Massive community, I recently had the pleasure of connecting with another founder through Travel Massive, stemming from my previous post on defining product-market-fit. Our conversation delved into the exhilarating yet challenging journey of being first-time founders building startups in the travel industry. One topic that particularly resonated with us was the exploration of Maps APIs. As we all know, the visual aspect and functionality of maps play a crucial role in travel tools. However, ...

Hi Travel Massive folks, I'm Rudi and I work for World Discovery, a multiday tour operator and travel agency. We run a lot of self guided hiking tours and we're looking for a better way to give navigation to our clients for outdoor hikes. Currently, we're using RidewithGPS, but we're finding that it's not suitable for our hiking tours. I would be grateful for any solutions from Travel Massive members. Thanks!
