That's usually people's first excuse, but with a little planning and exploration, you'll see that it is a LOT cheaper than a year spent living in America!

I'm sure Digitalnomad and other interested readers will take the chance and check out the plenty of useful information on your site! <strong>lissie</strong> - you are most welcome! Isn't blogging all about linking back and forth and knowing how to find the right resources? ;-) And yes, a rented out home is a good way for passive income, although most people never get to it, as they pay back loans their whole life and never move on. For me that whole subprime mortgage crisis shows just that... :-? Craig, thanks for coming back and elaborating a bit further!

I don't find blogging or writing on the internet to be at all passive but it is fun! My best tip for passive income is own your home – rent it out and there you go nice little income stream!

In lean times it's enough. We recently produced a podcast on starting to teach english as a second language especially from a travellers point of view, so that might help DigitalNomad if he's interested. It's hard to run a fully fledged business from the road. Things like tax and legal are the tricky parts, rather than the logistics.

You guys rock and I love to follow your stories and adventures on your blogs. <strong>digitalnomad</strong> - I wrote a few articles about virtual or passive income, just click on the 'money' category and scroll back a bit. Regarding businesses on the road, this is something where I'm struggling a bit, never did it - although I saw, that <strong>Craig</strong> posted above that he works during his travels. From other people I meet, the usual jobs are English Teacher, Travel Writer for Magazines or Websites, Restaurant Reviews, Web Publisher or something Online related. A friend of mine worked 2 months as a casual/seasonal farm worker during harvest in Australia. Another good friend of mine wanted to do an Overland Trip from Germany to India together with some friends who did that before. Due to financial constraints they offered the trip as a guided service, with about 10 people signing up, paying a fee to be part of their convoy. They offered basically the whole organization and Visa applications for everyone, had a doctor/mechanic with them and a guide who did the trip before. In the end they financed their own trips with the fees of the ones who signed up with them. The link for their new trip is <a href="http://www.steffenkunze.de/overlandtours/overlandtours/Route%202008.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>, unfortunately only in German (wonder where the link to the 2006 trip went, it was in English). ;-) Great to have so many comments from RTW travelers!
