Jimmy then talks about how his interest in world travel developed, and how he was able to travel on a shoestring budget before he had much money—including a 3,000 kilometer trip across Europe on just 200 Euros. He then explains how he learns languages through intensive immersion and by leveraging the 80/20 rule. Jimmy also reflects on his sustainability pillars for living a healthy, fulfilling, exciting life as a full time nomad for over 8 years. He discusses his selection process for his travel destinations, and explains how he structures his lifestyle. Finally, Jimmy shares his experience hiking the Annapurna Circuit in the Himalayas, and the profound life lessons that came out of it. FULL SHOW NOTES AND DIRECT LINKS TO EVERYTHING DISCUSSED IS AVAILABLE HERE. ____________________________________ See my Top 10 Apps For Digital Nomads See my Top 10 Books For Digital Nomads See my 7 Keys For Building A Remote Business (Even in a space that’s not traditionally virtual) Watch my Video Training on Stylish Minimalist Packing so you can join #TeamCarryOn  See the Travel Gear I Use and Recommend See How I Produce The Maverick Show Podcast (The equipment, services & vendors I use) ____________________________________ ENJOYING THE SHOW?
