Ever wondered what it’s like to turn a travel blog into a full-time business while exploring the world?

In this episode host Kim Anderson chats with Jarryd Salem about his journey of building a travel empire alongside his partner, Alesha.

Alesha & Jarryd are professional content creators, Sony Ambassadors and the founders of Nomadasaurus, one of the world’s largest travel blogs. They’ve been adventuring the far flung corners of the globe as full time travelers since 2008, and have managed to combine their passion for travel into multiple thriving businesses along the way.

Jarryd shares the secrets behind balancing work and travel, the evolution of their blog, and how they’ve managed to stay connected as a couple through years on the road.

He also opens up about the challenges of the nomadic lifestyle, from struggling to find a sense of community to dealing with the loss of income during the pandemic—and how they turned these setbacks into opportunities.

Jarryd is a firm believer that where there’s a will there’s a way and is a true testament to living life on your terms.

Whether you’re dreaming of starting a travel business, curious about life as a digital nomad, or just looking for travel inspiration, this episode is packed with insights and real-life advice. Don’t miss it!
