ABOUT HEATHER
My Journey To Full-Time Travel.
In 2017, I made the decision to leave my traditional 9-5 behind and pursue a life of travel. What started as a six-month experiment has turned into an incredible solo journey spanning 40+ countries across 6 continents.
Along the way, I've learned how to work remotely, manage my finances on the road, navigate different cultures, and build meaningful connections with people from all walks of life. Most importantly, I've discovered that full-time travel isn't just for the wealthy or privileged—it's achievable for anyone willing to learn and adapt.
Heather Begins is where my journey started. Now, through the Full-Time Travel Academy, I help mid-career professionals design and afford their own full-time travel lifestyle.
Whether you're dreaming of a short sabbatical, an adult gap year, or a complete lifestyle change, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
