“I left school at 15 to live in a hippy squat house in London. I’ve tended bar in a strip joint... inspected bolts at a factory... waitressed in a Chinese restaurant... clerked at a print shop where I typed invoices and lied to customers about why their orders weren't ready... But today I get paid to visit white sand Caribbean beaches... wildlife sanctuaries in Borneo... Indian Ocean hideaways... Rome... Paris... London...”
This is a true story! The above words come from Steenie Harvey, International Living’s Europe Editor. As well as seeking out the best places in Europe for IL readers to settle, Steenie also dabbles in some travel writing.
Imagine being able to indulge your passion for travel…and get paid for it. It seems like the stuff of dreams…too good to be true…a career that would take you to exotic destinations the world over…let you explore, enjoy, immerse yourself—and pay you to be there. But it is possible…just ask Steenie!
Travel writing is something you can do from anywhere. So whether you’re on the deck of your new home in Costa Rica, or sitting beside a roaring fire in your rented chalet in the French Alps…you too can be making money writing about your adventures.
This is a great way to make a living. But don’t just take my word for it! Sign up for International Living's free daily e-letter - IL postcards - and we'll send you a free report - Get Paid to Travel the World. In this report travel writer and friend of IL, Jennifer Stevens, shares her experiences and tells you what you need to do to get started as a travel writer.

Dear Panama Insider,
Of all the new real estate projects in Panama today, perhaps the most novel is an “eco-project” unlike any other in the country. It’s based on an idea that’s not new in North America and Europe, but unheard of in Panama. Called Utopia Village Farm Community, this project is a working farm that provides owners with fresh organic produce and even the possible opportunity to make money.

Dear International Living Reader,
Deep in Kayseri’s Vezir Hani, where Turkish Silk Road merchants used to park their camels, Steenie takes tea with hat maker Cultured Mustafa.
In his shop she finds a suitcase stuffer that could bring a 3,000% return back in England.
But even deeper in the ancient caravanserai, she meets Mehmet Baspinar, who gives her the bottom line on fine woolen kilim rugs.
See how Steenie beats the sharks and saves more than $300 below.
