Podcasts about nomad together

Paul Kortman and his family of 6 are digital nomads and living a life on the road RVing through Mexico all while running a digital marketing agency. Paul actually has two ripcord moments and we go deep into both of them. "How can we lower our cost of living dramatically while improving our quality of living?" The first is when he quit "the best job he ever had" to start his own marketing agency. The second is when him and his wife with 4 kids sold everything in Grand Rapids Michigan to go location independent and travel the world while still running the agency. Things didn’t initially go as planned. Within 3 months of them being digital nomads, Paul lost 3 clients that equated to 90% of his revenue and things quickly imploded. We discuss... How they planned to leave Grand Rapids for good and travel the world as digital nomads. When things quickly fell apart just 3 months into their journey. Returning to Grand Rapids to re-group and re-build their digital marketing agency. Buying a 300 square foot RV for the family to continue their nomadic lives. Living and working in Mexico. The digital tools that he relies on to run his business and thrive as a location independent entrepreneur. The ups and downs of living a life on the road with a family of 6. "Yes, I could make more money but I would have to work more and what's the fun in that?" This is a story of a resilient family that refused to give up on their dreams of living and working from anywhere and a motto that they’ve adopted when their traveling lifestyle hits a roadblock is, “if we are going to laugh about it later, why not laugh about it now.” Show Notes HomeAlongtheWay.com PaulKortman.com Connexdigitalmarketing.com The Nomad Together podcast Mentioned: The Tropical MBA, The Family Adventure Podcast Tools that Paul depends on to run his business from anywhere: Slack, Trello, Google Hangouts, Zapier, Skype, Google Voice, T-mobile Sponsors PrintDirtCheap.com – Rockstars in printing with over 30 categories of printing products doing it FAST and doing it CHEAP.

EER104: Family RV Travel & Running a Business from Mexico Family RV travel in Mexico. Running a Business from Mexico. Freedom, flexibility, education, screen time and location independence. These are just a few of the topics covered in this week's episode of Epic Education Radio. Family RV Travel in Mexico Paul and Becky Kortman like to say that they actually fell into a location independent lifestyle. However the method, the results have been life-changing for them. After a year traveling the world, they returned to the United States only for their children to ask them if "Can we please keep traveling?" And continue traveling they did. From flights and backpacks, they switched to an RV and drove south. The original goal was to go all the way to Ecuador. Then they arrived in Mexico....and never left. Family RV travel in Mexico wasn't the plan, but one of the beautiful things about the Kortman's travel family life is the freedom and flexibility to change their plans altogether if they want. ::: Like what you’re hearing?

Thank you! ::: Running a Business from Mexico Paul is a location independent entrepreneur who brings his work with him. Running a business from Mexico might seem like a dream, but for Paul, it's a reality. He connects with his team and works as they explore Mexico in an RV, all the while searching for home along the way. They call their blog "Home Along the Way" for that reason, and this has become an important part of their families life and learning. Why Family RV Travel in Mexico? Paul has great things to say about family RV travel in Mexico, and about life in Mexico in general. "When we were living in the US, all we heard [about Mexico] was negative, negative, negative," he says. Fortunately for them and thousands like them, this is far from the reality. Family RV travel in Mexico has been liberating for them, he says, adding that "we can let our kids run and play and be wild" far more than would be possible in the United States. The quality of life is great as well, he feels. For example, he tells the story of their family and some friends — ten people in total — were able to eat a great meal together and leave a substantial tip for the grand total of...wait for it...25 US dollars. Adoption, Residency and Running a Business from Mexico Paul and Becky also just went through the procedures to have permanent residency in Mexico. One of the reasons it that they would like to adopt another child, and to do this, Mexican residency can make things much easier and cheaper. We discuss education and free time as well, and how he is able to run a business from an RV with four — count them, FOUR — children in the vehicle with him.
