The office. . A lot of people ask how I afford to The office.

A lot of people ask how I afford to travel all the time. We’ll shock horror, I actually have a job. I work fully online and can work from anywhere in the world, so I do. 
The first photo is what everyone thinks I do. But realistically I have my laptop on the kitchen table in an AirBnB or a coffee shop. 
This isn’t a post to brag, it’s a post to make people realise that yes I am fortunate enough to travel often but I also have 40 hours sat behind a computer like a lot of other people. A reminder that social media is just the highlights reel of someone’s life and not all of it. 
PS I love my job so definitely isn’t a moan, just to make people aware I’m not a millionaire, don’t have a trust fund and don’t work on onlyfans….

Standing in front of the tallest building in the world in one of the strangest cities I’ve ever been to where everything is for show. It’s a custom built city by the wealthy for the wealthy. “Build it and they will come” is exactly what they’ve done building the biggest and best of everything and hosting major events such as Expo2020 and numerous sporting events. Have you been to Dubai? What are your thoughts?
