This is the first time I’ve heard someone say that but about “allowing yourself to be uncomfortable”. Our incessant need to bring more ease and comfort to our lives somewhat imprisons us, setting us on the path to spending more time working so we can maintain that luxury. I think this is a big deal. You’ve just released a concept that I think we’ll be seeing more of. Know that you said it before everyone else. 😁
Oh and probably a given for musicians/artists/performers out there but STREET PERFORMING! My god, vanlife and street performing is a match made in heaven. I made an absolute fortune doing that around Europe for 4 years. Bought two houses out of it haha
Graduating high school this spring and am going to major in nursing so I can be an RN. My plan is to graduate, get my RN license, and work at a hospital for a year or two to get experience and work on a van during that time. After that year or two, I'll be able to join a travel nurse agency and live out of my van :)
Alright, I have to admit Akela makes this the best "make money as a nomad" video I've seen yet. ❤️🐾 🤣 But no seriously I adore how you come at these videos. Too many times people try to be super extra professional and lose me instantly. You're so damn personable in every video, love it!
I can't believe I just sat here for half of the day and watched every video from the beginning (and subscribing) Wow, what an amazing journey - I am so impressed! You really have a way of not only telling your story, but sharing valuable insights. I love the work ethic, quality, determination, and super creativeness - while maintaining such a positive and uplifting spirt. I am so looking forward to your future adventures.
All of this is fantastic. I would say living simple/minimal/curated goes hand in hand. Don't buy into the "aesthetic" and own what you NEED, get what is comfortable for you to use and afford, You will be ok! And it's fun!
That's what my girlfriend does, medal and legal transcription. She's gotten really fast at it now too. Earns around $15-20 an hour. Pretty good considering you can do it in the beach and as much or as little as you like
I'm in BC and here on Vancouver Island whale Watching is a huge seasonal opportunity. I used to manage 2 of them and I would hire around 40 ppl each summer, and I was only 2 companies out of dozens on the Island. True, we primarily need marine biologists, but there are a ton of support staff required too. In the US, whale watching is quite big in WA, (which watch the same whales we do), CA and Hawaii. Cheers!🚙🇨🇦
I have a theater degree and it's contract to contract, inbetween contracts I can do whatever I want (depending on money). It's really what is your skillset and how can you make some money off that Nomadically.
A very helpful video! Most videos on the topic of making money on the road are super vague with no real jobs to look into! I appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos!
Great resourceful video that can help so many people! I posted it on the FB group Solo Female Vanlife for a girl trying to get started. Have loved watching your van build, your determination, resourcefulness, independence and skills are amazing!
Thank you for making this! You have a new subscriber. 😃 I’m 65. Been living in my van for a year and three months in a stationary place, but getting ready to go on the road soon. You’ve given a lot of good ideas about working on the road; I appreciate that. Can’t remember if you mentioned freelancing, but that is also a possibility. Writing or proofreading is what I might like to do. Also crafting. Being mobile means you have the ability to go to many different shows, or you can even do it online as in an Etsy shop or website. I’ve also been looking into print on demand. I watched the video of your two-year update and really liked seeing what you have done. You have fantastic skills, a lot of creativity, and commonsense. A great combination! I know regrets are fruitless, but I really wish I had started this journey many years ago when my health and strength would’ve allow me to do it more the way that you are. Peace ☮️ Up ⬆️
Lander Bar!! I grew up there and lived in Lander 30 years! When I tell people where I'm from, so many people say, where the Lander Bar is? I love it there!, Lol👍😊❣️
I will be getting my nursing degree soon and after about 2yrs of nursing experience I’m going to do travel nursing for contracts for about 10 weeks long. I’m able to get my compact nursing license and therefore be able to work in any compact state which is almost every state except the west coast. Travel nursing pays extremely well and me and my boyfriend are so excited to start our van life after those 2 years! We’re planning to take winters off for adventuring and being able to be home with family.
This Video is ONE FOR THE BOOKS, Though Your Jobs really are not really for me. It did give me an INSPERATION for something when I go on the road! And Now Its time for the BOOK WORK! THANKS BUNCHES! HAPPY TRAVELS! TRUST YOUR GUT! " You Said That! " THANK YOU! BE SAFE!
Linnea THANK YOU for all of your videos! Currently doing my first van build, 2021 Ram Promaster 2500, and I've really used all your videos to help make my build a little easier! I appreciate it!
I just applied to be a live-in carer. You can work 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off anywhere in UK (not sure if other countries have the same thing) . This will leave me time to do the other things I love doing and mean that I get to be in a bedroom and take a shower sometimes! The money is pretty decent also.
My wife and I are graphic designers and (using the plague as a kick in the pants to get rolling) started our small business - which we can do anywhere! Thanks for being an awesome inspiration for so many people ^_^
It’s taken several years for me to get my license and certifications but I officially started van life this year and working hurricane Ida as an insurance adjuster. I had just gotten my van and set it up temporarily and lived in it in Gonzales LA for 2 months and pocketed my pay. Came home and tore it all apart and enjoy the help this beautiful Godess (Linnnea)provides for me while I build it out properly now. Goal is to have the van ready for hail season April 1st.
Hi just saying you actually inspired an idea for me that I'm very excited about with this video. Won't go into details but thank you very much for this. I feel a lot more comfortable with my plan to hit the road
I have fallen in love with you. I recently started watching your videos. You have a pure soul and that reflects in your content. I have spent last 2 days watching all your videos. Good d bless you dear and love from India.
I live in a house within a mile (as the crow flies) of the Sugar Beet Plant. I have seen the signs for seasonal help. But I can tell you, processing the beets really smells. Literally. The air is heavy with an odor that I can only describe as boiled peanuts, manure, coffee and sour milk. Had I known about the plant prior to moving here, I would not have. But it's great seasonal income.
That is so much my dog. I need more videos. I watch other people but you’re the one that is infectious. You make my day better. Doing a trailer build out will be on the road myself soon. Picking up a panel saw tomorrow. Should be out there in a couple of months.
The program I work for now does two week on two week off schedules for field staff and almost all of the people in the position are nomadic either living in a van/bus or truck on the road. The schedule really works for the lifestyle!
Massage therapist as well, our high season is Oct-May, after that I can take off to vacation/travel. Or you can travel and work at different spas/resorts that only open “seasonally.” I know a few servers/waiters that travel and work at different places seasonally as well. So many options!
I been watching and following your van build series as a form of entertainment (it's going to be couple of years before I start my nomadic life) as I been watching a lot of van/rv life and workaway programs. But this video really resonated with me with what you said (except for working in the devil's lair, amazon lol). thanks for the video!
My current plan is to get my degree in animation, graphic design, and game design (my college offers all under one diploma). Work a couple years in the San Francisco area out of my mom's garage while doing my build during weekends. Eventually I will ask to "work from home" and invest in a VPN so no matter where I am they will think I am in San Francisco. Or I could use this time to make a brand and a social following so when I have work experience under my belt I could do free lancing.
Hey Linnea i just wanted to congratulate with you for what you're doing. This is very inspiring.. after travelling along australia for 2 years, and new zealand for a year and a half, i'm doing a van conversion in italy, and planning to leave with Bobo, but i can tell you one thing: in europe things are very different than the US, starting from the conversion itself. Legally speaking, you can't even make a van conversion actually.. and the salaries are lower, so i have to find a way to save as much as possible. Anyway, keep inspiring people as you're doing!!
Love that you've made exercise science /exercise physiology online :) I'm a year away from getting my Ex Phys qualifications and want to travel Australia for a year afterwards. Super glad to hear it's possible to do online :)
I’m watching this because I’m about to start work as a wilderness therapy guide in Utah!! And trying to figure out my living situation lol vanlife seems like it would be perfect!
You and Akela are made for each other 🥰. Lovely to see how you both enjoy each other’s company.......and Akela can be so funny. How can you not resist cuddling and kissing a dog like that 😙🙂.
Film can be a seasonal job, if you're up north when the industry slows during the winter. Great pay, but you have to know what you're doing.(lower positions pay less, but decent if you've got no experience)
Jobs that would be good for nomad lifestyle on the road lifestyle van life I'm looking forward to maybe doing some when I get out there I'm retired I have Social Security and I have a small pension check comes in monthly right now I'm working at the gas and oil as a security guard anywhere from $12-$15 an hour to usually 12 hours a day I'm working three days a week and this is how I am building my van earn & build Another good suggestion for employment is auto auctions I have driven for several auto auctions just for spare money they're all over the place I called and there is one big one in Phoenix Arizona but every state has several Pennsylvania has quite a few over the whole state yeah that's a good place to go you just drive cars through the auction on like one day a week and then after they sell vehicles or buy vehicles they have you deliver them are used to drive as far as down to Myrtle Beach and up to Michigan not a bad little sidekick job
Damn I’ve got a huge crush on you, just the way you express yourself so well and clearly and your natural beauty...😊 also in love with Akela, what a lovely funny dog !😂 Anywayss... Physiotherapy online ! Damn that is so clever... loved your vid ! Loved how it’s different from other vid on this subject... also definitely come to Canada to tree plant with us when the border reopens !!
![ทุกครั้งที่หลับตา (Lucid Dream) - AYLA's [ Official MV ]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/4i1OBAQyv58/mqdefault.jpg)
Wildland firefighting is a great seasonal job where you also get to travel a bunch and make a good amount of money in 6 months.
Yess!! This is such a good suggestion!
and work with fire men 🔥
THANK U

Such a great plan! I agree with Dan, Good for you! You'll have to keep us updated :)
@@Linneaandakela will let you know for sure, can't wait to see you and Akela's adventures until I can go on my own :)
And as a RN you can work per diem 1 day a week or even a few times a month making great $ allowing you a lot of days off to travel In Between :)
Do it while you’re young!!!! I wish I had!!!!
Akela melts my heart bless her 💝
She melts mine as well!❤️

A friend does a few hours each day as medical transcriptionist. Everything online so can work remotely (as in,...from a van in the woods).
That is awesome! Such a great idea
That's what my girlfriend does, medal and legal transcription. She's gotten really fast at it now too. Earns around $15-20 an hour. Pretty good considering you can do it in the beach and as much or as little as you like

Thanks so much Dan! Akela says hello :)

You’re seriously pretty damn amazing. Nice catch Akela!
Wow, thank you :)

Thank you!

Thanks you really provided detailed ways to support this lifestyle! 👏 Most of these videos I see on TH-cam are pretty generic.
Binge watching!!
Awesome content and LOVE your 'daughter'😍😍😋
The end was great!!! Hilarious!
Jobs that would be good for nomad lifestyle on the road lifestyle van life I'm looking forward to maybe doing some when I get out there I'm retired I have Social Security and I have a small pension check comes in monthly right now I'm working at the gas and oil as a security guard anywhere from $12-$15 an hour to usually 12 hours a day I'm working three days a week and this is how I am building my van earn & build
Another good suggestion for employment is auto auctions I have driven for several auto auctions just for spare money they're all over the place I called and there is one big one in Phoenix Arizona but every state has several Pennsylvania has quite a few over the whole state yeah that's a good place to go you just drive cars through the auction on like one day a week and then after they sell vehicles or buy vehicles they have you deliver them are used to drive as far as down to Myrtle Beach and up to Michigan not a bad little sidekick job
Makes me think of the movie Nomadland. She works Amazon and sugar beets. Good movie, you should check it out :)
I will need to take a look at it! Thanks :)
This was very helpful! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
I'm SO enjoying this video/content but I'm keenly aware that I want Akela to have her ball!! #outtakegoals

I was a contract archaeologist for many years. Wish I had the van I have now then… would have been way nicer than the hotels I was usually put up in.
