Hey guys, happy Sunday, I am on
9% battery because I realized that I left
One of my chargers in charge adapters in Brazil the other one I left in amsterdam yesterday. So I
Just realized that I need to go get a charge adapter so I can charge my devices but today is day
What day is it 6 today is day 6 of at least 90 livestreams in a row
And I thought we should back up for a second and I should explain why am I doing this?
First of all Who am I?
Why do I have this channel? Why am I live-streaming? How can I help you? Why am I here?
So we kind of hit the ground running this year
I've traveled to so many different places in the first few days of the new year
So I thought I would slow down for a second and just let you know who I am
so the fastest way to
get to know who I am is to watch my youtube trailer, which is a couple minutes long and
There's another video
Called how I became a digital nomad that I will link to in the description below and in the comments
So that's like maybe five minutes or so of videos that can
Give you a bit of background about Who I am
why I'm here why I have this channel, but basically I
Have been traveling around
living and working abroad since college
The first time I lived abroad was in 2002 and I went to Costa Rica and I never looked back
so
Pretty much almost half of my life. I've been traveling around the world and over time. I realized that
living in foreign countries was awesome and working for myself was awesome as well and
As technology has progressed
I've now realized that I can share how to do that with more people because it's becoming a mainstream
concept to be able to
Support yourself live where you want work online things like that. So Oh God this
My computer is dying quickly. I'm gonna turn down the brightness
So there's a lot to talk about
But just to like give you a little bit of background
my goal in the world right now is to
help
facilitate the
Location-independent lifestyle for anyone who wants it, so I want to share my
15 years of
Travel through 60 countries running my own businesses helping people
Relocate so that they can live where they want and work for themselves. I've helped - I don't know at this point -
well over a thousand people
Move to 25 different countries so that they could work online or work for international
corporations and things like that and
What else do I want to say before my battery dies
Yes, so I've been running my own companies for many many years and
now I want to just
share as much information as I have
about
How you can basically become a digital nomad -
Whatever that means for you
Whether you want to work remotely from home in your home country or you want to live out of a suitcase
Traveling around the world. I'm here to help you do that
So, how do I help you do that?
Well first I thought I should just share what I know through the form of content creation. So that means writing
Blogging vlogging... I have a Facebook group. I am creating some online courses
I'm halfway through writing a book. I'm just basically taking what I know and putting it into a format that people can
Consume it and understand it. Everybody learns in a different way. So through writing I've created
a
Medium blog and a personal blog. So my website is TravelingwithKristin.com - my medium
Profile is @KristinMWilson, and I just analyze
and
disseminate information about remote work the remote work revolution and
How to become a digital nomad and work online basically - How to have control over your life, how to have freedom things like this
there are hundreds of
Articles and videos and things that are either already published or will be published in the upcoming months
so I encourage you guys to
If you love to read then check out the blogs if you're just a video person
Hang out here on YouTube and if you want more one-on-one advice
One on one interaction with me the best way to do that is through my Facebook group
Which is called Long-Term Digital Nomad Success and there's about 2,000 people in there
So I will link to that as well
in the description below but basically my life philosophy is that everybody should be able to
live the way they want and
These days with technology
and
with the very open mindset of the world and how much we've progressed then why not?
So I'm here to help you guys do that and on the side I run a relocation company
which is currently for online poker players called Poker Refugees and also for sports bettors called Sports Refugees and
my goal is to
Create products and services for non poker players and non sports bettors - for everybody
Anyone who wants to work online and anyone who wants to just basically be in charge of their lives!
That's the most important thing. I think that
if
everybody is working and what they want to work in then the world will be a much better place because you guys will be
expressing the highest vision of yourselves
being creative living your passions and basically
contributing to the world in a way that
when you're doing that and when you're happy, it's gonna be better for everybody else else because you're gonna be
I think it's a huge disservice for the world for people to be working in jobs that they hate
for companies that they don't believe in and
Wasting hours a day commuting to work and oh, there's so many things we're gonna have to get into that on another day
But why am I doing these live streams every day?
Well, I do a live stream in my Facebook group every week and I really love it and one of my friends and fellow digital
nomads
Patrick Farrell who's called The Ginger Nomad on social media is doing a 90 day content creation challenge
this year in his Facebook group, which is called Those That Inspire and
He challenged me to do 90 days of publishing on YouTube
Because he likes my videos. But, it's really for me... it's impossible. I don't have the budget or
I guess, editing skills or resources to edit and produce a video every single day or the time
but what I can do is live stream, so
It has been a good challenge because I have hundreds of topics that I want to share with you guys about
The digital nomad lifestyle and how to become location independent
But it could take years to to actually produce professional videos about each of those topics
but in one year
I mean in 90 days I can talk about 90 different topics and that's 90 more things that you guys would know about
travel or
Location independence or life or what have you or just hanging out and having fun having Q&A session of things like that!
So that's why I'm doing the live streams for 90 days
You don't need to wait to be motivated to take action on something
Action begets motivation and this serves for a small habit that you want to make in your daily life
But it also serves in taking steps towards achieving a big goal
It takes it applies towards taking steps towards
Transitioning from a traditional lifestyle to one of location independence
And really the only way to get from point A to point B is to start taking small steps
towards it every day like breaking down big things into very small small goals - micro, micro steps and
So I don't know what the actual outcome of live streaming for ninety days will be but I know that it is
A process of getting to know other people who are interested in the same topics
Around the world who are interested in travel who are interested in
entrepreneurship who are interested in the digital nomad revolution and who are interested in just basically
Maximizing their experience in life and here on the planet. And so
You know
That's what we're doing here guys. We're all collaborating. We're all sharing our gifts. We're all helping each other and
Who knows what the meaning of life is but I think that that has something to do with it. So
In sum now that I'm down to three percent of battery and my Mac is probably gonna shut off any second
I'm here because I've been passionate about travel my entire life
I've been passionate about freedom ever since I understood the concept of what it was and
I've been fortunate enough to have been able to
Experience 60 countries or life in 60 countries around the world...
To have been able to help
many people over a thousand people
Create life on their own terms by living and working in foreign countries
And I was fortunate to be born in a country where I had access to a good education
And I was able to go to grad school in
College and study abroad and do all these cool things, like, to what end? - To be able to share that experience
With other people and to be able to help them
Get to different areas of their lives where they want to be. Like that's why I'm here to do. Those are my gifts
those are the things that I've
kind of been able to
Help with in the world. And so that's what I why I'm here
So again, if you want to learn more, I'll link to those other videos about me below and I hope that you tune in
Every day for at least the next 90 days if it goes, well, maybe I'll just keep doing it forever. Who knows?
