How do we afford to travel all the time and how to overcome self objections

I’m not what you would consider a “usual travel blogger” who’s quit their job to travel the world. Im just a regular Joe (girl version of Joe) and like most people I have a full time job, a mortgage, 2 cats and a dog. Every time I get back from a trip friends always ask me what’s my secret to travelling all the time is or they ask what are the winning lotto numbers are as they don’t understand how I can afford to travel all the time… the fact is there is no secret and certainly no lotto winnings (sadly!)…. For me, it’s all about priorities. I’m 28 years old and therefore, personally I’m not ready to settle with working full time, popping out 4 kids and dealing with the same routine day in and day out for the next 50 years. Don’t get me wrong there is nothing wrong…
