The author, once burdened with $80,000 in student loans, developed a unique strategy to manage debt while enjoying life. Graduating in 2019 and initially jobless, they aimed to clear the loans before turning 30. By moving abroad and immersing in different cultures, the author not only minimized living expenses but also embraced experiences across 12 countries. Committing to a remote job with a high salary allowed them to pay significantly more than the minimum monthly payments to achieve their financial goal, proving that travel and debt repayment can coexist harmoniously.
I discovered a lot of ways to explore a culture cheaply.
By leaving the United States, one of the 10 most expensive countries for its cost of living, I reduced my expenses and freed up more of my income.
