Hi Reader

Where can you live and work abroad for less?

We came across something interesting this week that’s worth sharing.

A recent report highlighted the countries with the lowest income requirements for digital nomad visas – including places like Finland, Montenegro and Albania.

What stood out is that the required income in some of these countries is far lower than you might expect – in some cases, just enough to show a steady, modest remote income rather than a high salary.

Some countries are also actively trying to attract remote workers right now – which means there are more opportunities opening up than there were even a few years ago.

It’s a good reminder that working abroad isn’t always as out of reach as it can feel.

In fact, for many people, the barrier isn’t visas or logistics – it’s simply getting started.

– Building some remote work experience.
– Creating a small income stream you can take with you.
– Giving yourself a way to test the lifestyle before committing fully.

And that’s where things like house sitting, freelance work and flexible roles come in.

You don’t have to go all in straight away.

You just need a starting point.

You can dip your toes in now.

If this is something you’ve been thinking about, it’s a good time to start exploring your options – even just understanding what’s possible.

You can jump into our Facebook community to ask questions or hear from others already doing it, or head over to our YouTube channel and subscribe because we’ll be sharing more on this there soon.

Cooper or I will always respond to you too, if you want to hit 'reply' on this email with any of your questions about getting started and going remote.

Hi Reader Better House Sits Start With One Conversation One of the busiest discussions in our Facebook group this week wasn't about where to house sit. It was about communication. The question was simple: "Are daily pet photos a reasonable expectation?" More than 90 people shared their thoughts in under a day. Some homeowners love receiving daily updates and photos. Others are happy with a quick message every few days. Likewise,...

Hi Reader One thing I’ve noticed in our Facebook group lately is that although things are a little quieter than peak season, house sits are still popping up. And that’s important because a lot of people assume that by mid-June they’ve missed their chance for summer travel. In reality, many homeowners are only just finalising plans for July and August. Travel dates change. Family plans shift. Work trips come up unexpectedly. Pets...
