HELLO STRANGER...

Hey! I’m Sab. But you can call me Sabrina, too – travel addict, storyteller, professional house sitter, creator of this travel blog, and the person who actually took a "one-way ticket" and never looked back.

 

Since 2007, I’ve been living out of a suitcase (okay, I got 2 more suitcases in a storage unit in Bangkok) while exploring the world one country, one cat-sitting gig after another, and one poorly-timed flight at a time. I started this blog in 2012 with zero clue what I was doing.

 

Spoiler: it worked out pretty well. A decade later I'm still a travel blogger, living off this site.

✈️ Almost 2 Decades (and Counting) of Travel & Living Abroad

I’ve visited more than 75 countries across 6 continents living my best life: from riding scooters through Bali, train traveling across Italy, couchsurfing in India, sandboarding in Namibia, to swimming with whale sharks in the Philippines (don’t worry, I still have all my limbs).

 

But travel for me isn’t just about passport stamps — it’s about people, connections and stories. And trust me, I’ve got plenty.

🏠 I Travel the World Without Paying for Accommodation (90% of the time)

Yes, really. One of my biggest travel hacks? Pet sitting. I’ve swapped rent for pet cuddles worldwide. I’ve been staying in beautiful homes around the globe — watching adorable cats — for over a decade. It’s my secret weapon for traveling long-term on a budget.

From UX design, language teaching, graphic design, blogging, affiliate marketing, and sponsored content to consulting and brand deals — I’ve tried quite a few digital hustles out there. If you’ve ever dreamed of making money online while sipping a coconut in Bali, I’ve got you.
