Digital Nomading with Jules Costa!

AUA Ep 7: Jules Costa has been a full time digital nomad for three years. Born in Brazil but raised in America Jules has traveled throughout the United States, Brazil and Europe. She started her own business with a business partner during the Covid lockdown. But before that she worked AND traveled, affirming that it's possible to find work while on the road and do whatever it takes to make your dreams come true. Jules offers some amazing pearls of wisdom from travel hacking to minimalism to just an overall positive life attitude. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did!

— Travel hacks:trading something you’re good at for airbnb stays (if you notice they could use better photos for example)reach out to them and ask for 1/2 off or a free nightUsing a credit card that offers air miles.I looked up the best card (for me) according to https://thepointsguy.com/ which is the Chase Sapphire Preferred card — I put all my expenses on the card and pay it off monthly and since opening the card six months ago I already have enough points for two round trip flights within the US.
