In May 2019 I (Jen) started doing Facebook marketing and PR for the organization Plastic Free Southeast Asia. One day, I asked our community on the PFSEA Facebook page “How are you working to reduce single-use plastic in your daily life?” That’s how I met Addie May Swarbrick.
Addie shared that she runs a vegan meal delivery business in Phnom Penh, Cambodia that is plastic-free. Cambodia has a ton of plastic pollution, so going plastic-free there is no easy feat, especially for business owners. I had to know more. [Read more…]

In early 2017 Stevo and I spent a weekend at Eden Eco Village in Kampot, Cambodia. Both mornings we were there I was the only student in Chardé’s 7 AM yoga class on the deck above the river. We chatted before and after class and I learned that she was there on a work-trade, staying and eating for free in exchange for teaching yoga and serving food. She also runs an awesome yoga website, Namasté Con Chardé. Chardé’s story opened our eyes to these types of work-trade opportunities, and we knew we had to share it with you!
I first met Nikki in Phnom Penh, Cambodia at a meet-up with Girl Gone International, a group connecting women living and traveling overseas. We were sat next to each other and got to chatting. The inevitable “What do you do for work?” question came up, and I was fascinated by Nikki’s story of how she started her own business here. You never know what will happen if you hone in on your expertise and open yourself up to the possibilities of Working in Asia! [Read more…]
We love learning about what other travelers do to earn money on the road and live out their desired lifestyle. Many people dream about traveling full-time, but it’s not always as easy as it sounds! The more information we can learn from one another about how to make it happen the more we can all benefit.
That’s why we started this Working in Asia series! We interview expats in Asia to learn how they earn enough money to live and travel full-time.
In this interview, Akshata shares what it’s like to work as a Divemaster in Goa, India. She delves into the nitty-gritty including the lifestyle, what it pays to work at a diving center, and where in India she did her PADI Divemaster course training. We hope you enjoy reading and learn something new! 😀
