It’s been several years since I made the transition from teaching English in classrooms around the world to teaching English online from Airbnb’s around the world.
It has granted me a freedom that I could of only dreamed of a few years ago.
I love making different cities my home for a few days… or a few weeks.
I prefer taking my time to explore slowly and not rush. I like to enjoy that coffee, have that extra hour in bed, unpack and unwind.
From Budapest to Marrakesh, from Bangkok to London, I’ve been lucky enough to travel to many parts of the globe.
How? All because I make money from teaching English online.
I think it’s important to state that the lifestyle isn’t all travelling and late starts. It’s hard work that requires a lot of organization and discipline.
Everywhere you visit is essentially your classroom, so you need to make sure you have the set up right!
Wi-Fi. Privacy. A quiet space.
But, I think the benefits far outweigh the constant planning.
If you’re willing to put in the hard work, teaching online doesn’t only provide you with a flexible schedule, but it can help you achieve a healthy bank balance.
I’m going to cover travel and teaching online topics such as: portable classrooms, internet backups , devices and much more in future posts.

Alternatively, you can drop me a message and I can try to answer any questions you have.
When you teach and travel, it is important to ensure you have a quiet space, a strong wi-fi connection and privacy.
I find Airbnb the best platform to use when booking accommodation. You can message the host in advance to enquire about the Wi-Fi and ask any other questions that may effect your teaching experience.
Chances are you already have an Airbnb account, but if you don’t, you can sign up here:
