It may seem a little out of left field. I mean, I’ve been travelling the world, living out of my suitcase for over six years.

First came the apartment in Wellington New Zealand, my hometown, late last year. To have a base in my home country was a big step for this digital nomad. It was the first time since I quit my corporate job in the UK in 2008 that I knew that I would be spending a significant amount of time in one place.

I have been quite intentional over the last 6 months, since I realized my Freedom Plan was shifting, to redefine what Freedom looks like to me. I talked about it in my TEDx talk here.

In today’s podcast, I had one of my previous guests Tim Leffel interview me (for a change!) about my new version of Freedom and what the heck The Suitcase Entrepreneur is doing buying a house in Portugal.

Listen in to this episode to learn about:

• Why I shifted from living out of a suitcase to buying property in multiple countries
• How to embrace change and honour your own path
• Why there is no right way or right path, just the one you create
• The ins and outs of buying a house in Portugal as a foreigner
• How to go about getting a lawyer, mortgage and the costs involved
