The Opportunistic Travelers
About
In January of 2015, Evo Terra and Sheila Dee left the "default" lifestyle behind to adopt the digital nomad lifestyle and literally travel the world, experiencing places less traveled, meeting people, and having adventures. They call their style of roaming the world opportunistic traveling. It's not for everyone, to be sure.
"Getting to why we made this leap is a little complicated," says Evo Terra. "In short, our kid is grown and doing quite well as a responsible and mature adult. Over time, we'd divested ourselves of any real property. The work we do (she's an instructional designer and I'm a digital strategist) is the kind of work that we can do from anywhere on the globe. So... why not?"
In lieu of being independently wealthy, they've sold off literally everything they own to build up the runway to afford this excursion. And by literally, they almost mean literally. Save a few personal effects that simply can't be replaced, they cashed out on The Stuff accumulated in over two decades as a couple. TVs, furniture, Sheila's car, Evo's bass guitars... If it didn't fit in either of their single suitcases or laptop bags, it's not traveling with them.
Because they've been on the bleeding edge of digital innovation since their early 20s, they're documenting their new lives as they live it, letting armchair travelers the world over live vicariously through them. This experiential style of travel blends nicely with their catch-as-catch-can style of destination "planning" to create a unique experience for their listeners, readers, watchers and followers on various social properties. Join them on their journey!
