    Honestly this isn’t to crazy. I know some people like this who moved to Thailand and Indonesia and they work in tourism and their lifestyles are pretty much exactly like this except taking a few people out fishing or up a mountain.

    You could probably even do this in the us if you found the right place. You could definitely do it in nz if you pretended like you were looking for work.

      NZ job seeker benefit system definitely would not let you do this lol. You’ve clearly never been through it.

      You’re not paying rent, eating well, and sipping wine on $360 per week lol.

        That’s about $800/mo for you yanks, or less than 10k/year, with a similar cost of living to a medium sized city in the US.

      There’s loads on Airbnb experiences. When I was in LA I went out in some guys boat, he takes people out a few times a week and it pays for his boat. There was people doing guided walks round the city and stuff
