Everyone wants to save up enough money to travel the world, or at least their countries, and see all the different things nature offers. However, A-list celebrities don’t have to dream about this; they just do it, and so do an increasing number of social media entrepreneurs and influencers who have made travel a part of their business.
The result? More people are getting inspired to travel more and live mobile lives, and why wouldn’t they? Social media influencer Casey Iola delves into it. “There is only one reason that more people are not hopping in an RV or an airplane and traveling more frequently, and that reason is their jobs. If there is one thing the pandemic changed, it was the overall sentiment toward work; more people realize that work isn’t everything.”
“More people desire flexible work schedules, and more people are starting online businesses and giving themselves the freedom to work while on the road. As soon as travel restrictions were lifted, it seemed every celebrity was on the road. Now, everyone wants to be able to do that as well, and that’s a great thing.”
Iola is an Instagram influencer and self-proclaimed digital nomad. The South African-born Australian resident has spent the last seven years traveling the world, visiting 46-plus countries and living in 5. She currently utilizes her platform to advocate for travel and coach social media entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs-in-training on how to be financially independent of the rat race to achieve their travel dreams.
Like many of the celebrities covered in this article, Iola has also converted her Mercedes Sprinter into a home on wheels and has traveled the length and breadth of Australia while building her business.
