Meet Erica & Shaun
Erica and Shaun are our first Ramblings who are nomads, but not traveling in an RV. They’re in their late 20s and planned for four years to escape their jobs working at a video game company to start budget traveling the world.
They cut their expenses to live off one person’s income, and used the rest to pay off debts and stock some cash away for their adventures. When we spoke with them in June, they had just completed their first year on the road – traveling throughout Latin America. They share a lot of their tips and tricks for planning, preparing and experiencing.
They started a blog to see if it would stick, and have been able to supplement their savings with income generated by their online efforts to afford to do the more expensive fun stuff – like getting SCUBA certified.
When we spoke with them in Austin they were back for a few months to focus on re-stocking the bank account. In a couple weeks they start their next extended adventure of exploring Europe, starting with a stop in Iceland.

Ramblings: Tales from Nomads is intended to introduce you to some amazing people who are living life on their terms by traveling full time.
In this video series, you’ll be meeting and hearing the stories from a wide range of nomads we’ve met, with one thing in common – they’re not waiting for a traditional retirement to pursue their dreams of perpetual travel.
The entire video series will continue to grow at: https://www.technomadia.com/ramblings
We’ll continue introducing you to more nomads, aiming to release 2-3 videos a month until we run out of content (which is hopefully never!). Make sure you’re subscribed to our RSS feed to be automatically notified when we post.
