In today’s episode, we will speak to my new friend Isabel from the website Bel Around The World.
Isabel is a digital nomad and a full-time travel blogger from Singapore who managed to convert her blogging hobby into her full-time activity.

Isabel will explain to us how she monetizes her passion (photography and travel), collaborates with big brand names in the travel industry (a crowded space), and also share some challenges she faced during her travels.

This episode is for you if you are looking at ways to monetize your passion and as well why not in combination with full-time traveling.
Key Takeaways:
- A hobby can become a full-time activity by adding the right skills (digital skills like SEO for example) and offer several sources of income!
- When a project is your own, you want it to succeed more.
- An idea: Teach about something you are passionate about: Making candles, gardening tips, playing an instrument, etc
- Your personality (or point of view) is what will help you differentiate in the crowded online space.
- Traveling is fun but it also comes with challenges: Traveling solo, language barriers can be a struggle.
