It’s been almost a year since I began UNC Chapel Hill’s Coding Bootcamp. I’ve previously written about my experience job hunting after coding bootcamp but I wanted to do another post that addresses a more general question: is coding bootcamp worth it? This question is hotly debated in coding circles on and off the […]
Category: How can you make money on the road?
There’s been a lot of buzz lately about coding bootcamps. The idea is a super condensed crash course in some form of coding, in theory enough to land graduates an entry level job afterward in an growing, high paying industry. I recently posted a UNC Chapel Hill Coding Bootcamp Review, but today I want to […]
As I’ve explored ways to make money on the road, the general conclusion I’ve reached is that the most ‘realistic’ (achievable within a reasonable amount of time) way to make a steady income while traveling is to learn a skill that you can use to work remotely. This could be a lot of different things and […]
When I first started this blog in April of 2016 my goal was to explore ways that one could make money on the road. The idea was to start with a long list, and then gradually go through them and write honest, as un-biased as possible reviews on what’s worked and what hasn’t. It’s been […]

As I’ve mentioned before, Fiverr is a primarily service based freelance site where all gigs start at a base price of $5. You can, however, add on gig extras and charge more money. Fiver takes 20%, so you […]
You’ve almost certainly heard of Craigslist. The bare bones site is probably the biggest classifieds section in the US, if not the world. People visit the site to find houses, jobs and free sofas. They also have several ‘gigs’ sections, which are basically short term jobs. Anything from working a single one day event, […]
The P2P revolution is here! You’ve heard of sharing your house using Airbnb, you’ve heard of driving for people via Uber, but did you know that you can now make money cooking for people, right from your home? That’s what a half dozen new startups are trying to bring to the sharing economy. I’m fascinated by the […]
One of the first opportunities we’re exploring in our ongoing quest to answer the question ‘How can you make money on the road?‘ is mock trials. Basically the idea is law firms pay you money to watch or read simplified version of the case and give them your thoughts on it. They do this in order to get […]
One of the three goals with which this blog began was to explore ways to make money while on the road. While we advise traveling as simply and economically as possible, it is generally necessary to have some money coming in if you plan to travel indefinitely. Though this blog focuses on traveling, this list would also be […]
