About this listen

Vagabonding is about taking time off from your normal life - from six weeks to four months to two years - to discover and experience the world on your own terms. Veteran shoestring traveler Rolf Potts shows how anyone armed with an independent spirit can achieve the dream of extended overseas travel. Potts gives the necessary information on:

  • Financing your travel time
  • Determining your destination
  • Adjusting to life on the road
  • Working and volunteering overseas
  • Handling travel adversity
  • Re-assimilating back into ordinary life

Not just a plan of action, vagabonding is an outlook on life that emphasizes creativity, discovery, and the growth of the spirit. Visit the vagabonding community's hub at www.vagabonding.net.

I have been asked many times if I am ever going to write a book... that the book has already been written and this is it

Great info. I could relate through the whole book

Really good book with clear positive messaging. Lacks the direct action points of the authors he has inspired eg Tim Ferris but it's certainly enough to get your mind whirring.

Great motivational starting point

Excellent and Inspiring

It acheives to inspire you by taking you by the hand and walking you through the process of tweaking your thinking regarding the "why's & how's" of traveling long term. When your done you'll feel that what was once a pie in the sky idea has become not only realistically achievable but an irresponsible thing to not do.

This purchase will hurt you none!

A refreshing advice/ guide to travel and a great perspective that translates to everyday life. This book was a recommendation which I was skeptical about because of the cult like pitch I was given before listening but I enjoyed the listen and will also give the same cult like recommendation to friends who struggle with travel.

Realistic and relatable advice
