Q&A for any and all questions you might have about traveling.
FAQ
are there requirements to be an ESL teacher other than being a fluent English speaker?
nope.
some countries and schools require a TEFL certificate or prefer candidates with an associate's degree depending on the position, but if you want to teach English, all you need is to be a fluent English speaker.
how can you afford to travel long-term?
The cost of living in most countries is around $500 USD a month for transportation, rent, utilities and food altogether; teaching English pays $2000 USD a month with zero qualifications or experience.
every month I taught English, I had a few extra months of my cost of living.
I taught English for about 7 years.
as long as you're making more than 500 USD a month remotely in any job, you can travel long-term.
What's the best country?
Pffft get outta here.

Yeah. I did omnivore, I did vegan, now I'm doing something even more niche, carnivore (which nobody likes).
The world has lots of options and perspectives, better to see a lifestyle you like and adopt it rather then trying to change everyone around you.
How long have you been meat-exclusive?
"better to see a lifestyle you like and adopt it rather then trying to change everyone around you."
couldn't agree more.
9 months, then I feel off the wagon pizza and rice and the like, now I'm back on the wagon.
I couldn't feel better, things that always hurt stopped hurting. The worst thing is I know I'd feel better when would get back on the wagon but it's so easy to normalize all the aches and pains of life.
Please feel free to be vague or non-answery, I'm just curious.
What things used to hurt and no longer hurt? What is your daily diet? Absolutely zero fiber? What is the broad diet picture before and after?
No worries, I have a community oh here about it
Just from when I fell off the wagon last time and when I started up again:
These pains were not minor, they were significant detractors to my life. The shoulder injury was from working out, and it hadn't healed since I fell off the wagon. But within a week of getting back on the wagon it went away
My gym trainer has remarked that I have a lot more energy now, he could notice when I switched.
Daily diet: ground beef and eggs, variety when I have social means, for treats I eat cheese
Yeah, zero fibre, no issues pooping I swear.
Broad diet picture: before omnivore lots of carbs, addicted eating patterns lots of snacks.
After carnivore: tend to one big meal a day, no desire for snacks, food noise is very muted. Shooting for zero carbohydrates.
"no issues pooping I swear"
Oh no worries haha, I went carnivore for a while in China. Fat helps in evacuation.
Carbs = Crazy naptime for me.
First week I stopped eating carbs was pretty wild, first fasting moreso, omni omad with occasional fasting is my routine now.
Do you just put ground beef into fried eggs or omelets? Do you try to make different dishes?
I basically make the one dish at home. 350g of ground beef, browned, add in 6 eggs, stir, delicious bowl of fatty protein.
I'm impressed that you can go in and out of fasting, it's a great skill to have!
Thanks, I'm very interested in how different diets affect human metabolism, and since I have one at my disposal, you know?
There are so many diets with such interesting and radically different effects, I have to try all of them.
And if I happen to be Indian vegan and then visit China next? Uh yeah, beer-fried duck is back on the menu.
We live so briefly, and the world is so vast.
When I went carni in China, there was this guy on my walk home selling yak jerky, which is still by far no contest my favorite jerky, and I went from a snack every other day to bags of that stuff for months.
I was like hey, good enough for hundreds of generations of mongolians...and dang are the mongolians correct.
That's my hobby too. Fat metabolism appears to be simply the best metabolic state for humans. So any low carb/keto diet would be the most indicated.
