 Okay,
let's talk about travel. You want to travel, why shouldn't you go
where you want, do what you want, and stay as long as you want? The
simple answer is that you've got to go back to work. But what
if you could work wherever you wanted simply by connecting to the internet?
Impossible? Remember what website you're on . . . the entire raison
d’être for this website was based on the concept of living free of
restraints . . . over 50% of the people working for this website are expatriates
who live where they want and work online from wherever they are.
Okay, we do have offices; and some of us do go to those offices; but the
fact remains that all of us at one time or another work from a beach, a
mountain top, and in some cases a few of us never appear in any office.
It was the choice we made in creating this website. Over the years
we've communicated with and met thousands of others doing the very same
thing. One such person is Mark McMahon who wrote an ongoing series
of articles for our magazine based on a trip he took from from Tucson,
Arizona to the tip of South America. Mark has since gotten involved
in numerous other projects; all of them based on his making a living from
anywhere on the planet as long as he could log-on to the internet.
Mark created this eBook, "The Portable Professional - Earn A Living Worldwide"
If you don't want your vacation to ever end; if you want to live free and
bow down to no one; then this is the eBook for you. Okay, that's
travel . . it's also freedom. ...and for many of us it is already
a reality. Why not you?

Perpetual Traveler
About Mark McMahon's "The Portable
Professional" .
I've known Mark McMahon for a number
of years. He drove a car from Tucson, Arizona all the way to the tip of
South America. I first met up with him in Panama on his way south and I
caught up with him again in Buenos Aires at the completion of his trip.
Such a trip would be story enough for any man, but the part of Mark's brain
that made the trip to Patagonia is just one part of a very creative and
innovative brain.
Mark is the sort of guy you could
sit down with at La Biela, the famous Cafe in the Recoleta and spend the
afternoon drinking three bottles of Argentine wine and not get bored with
the conversation. Mark talks in concepts and he doesn't stop talking, because
he has plenty to say and what he has to say shows that he does a lot of
thinking. Mark always has at least ten projects going at the same time.
Among other things he is about to embark on a Book Tour from Tucson to
Alaska in an RV Van that looks like a psychedelic Oscar Mayer Weinermobile.
The tour is to promote Driving To The Ends Of The Earth one of his
latest books -

As you already know by this time, Mark
has just completed another book available in pdf format entitled The Portable
Professional, which as you already know is about a subject dear to my heart.
How
to make a living in US Dollars or EURO's from anywhere on the planet.
Hey, the motto on our magazine is "Live Where You Want To Live! ~ Live
How You Want To Live! ~ And Make Money Doing It!" The concept of making
money from wherever you happen to be anywhere on the planet is as I've
already stated the Raison d' etre of our website, to use one of those fancy
French phrases that nobody can pronounce.
Now Mark has written an eBook on the
concept, condensing a great deal of very important information into 102
pages. As Mark puts it, "With the technology available today, you don't
need to wait until retirement to live the life you always dreamed of."
Mark is right. Today's technology includes Skype & Vonage phones, which
allow any one of us to live anywhere there is broadband and to have a global
telephone 'presence'; whether the presence required is in London, Quebec,
Singapore, New York and/or almost anywhere else in the world that the impression
of a 'virtual' presence suits our needs. Add in internet fax, International
Callback, Fax on Demand, Download on Demand, and the ability to instantly
transfer data, spreadsheets, images, photographs and much more at the mere
flick of a mouse button and the point is well taken. Then there is the
internet itself, which allows us to access a volume of information that
more than rivals almost any brick and mortar library in the world. Video
conferencing? Of course, and so on. We use such tools and devices to operate
and maintain EscapeArtist.com with a staff from around the world. Why should
you sit in Detroit when you could be sitting on the Côte d'Azur?
The amount of software and hardware that allows us this sort of global
freedom already exists and it is astounding - - plus numerous new innovations
in the field that strengthen our abilities are increasing exponentially
on a daily basis. The road ahead is clear for those with the vision to
see. |
Telecommuting
occurs in large and small companies, and in public and private organizations,
but 'freelancers' can also telecommute. We've had a Virtual Office section
on our website since its inception. The Virtual Office is a virtual reality.
It is possible to run a business from any location on the planet. It's
true that some locations are easier to work from than others, but with
the right tools, technology and planning it is possible to run a business
from a desert island, the deck of a boat moored in a Mediterranean yacht
basin or from a sheep ranch in the Australian Outback.
