Meet Jason Robinson
Jason didn’t see his 3rd country until he was 40 years old.
At age 41, he sold everything to live as a location-independent nomad... and got diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes a little over a year later at age 42... during the COVID pandemic!
Since then, he continues to navigate Type 1, insurance, remote work, and living nomadically, often spending months abroad at a time. Jason also recently published "The Beginner Traveler's Guide To Going Nomad," (affiliate link) a hands-on book that help those with a fear of "learning to travel" to overcome the hurdles and experience all of the growth that travel can bring.
