Community post
Hey Everyone!
I want to Introduce myself here in front of the whole Steemit Community.
My name is Jason Moxey, I am living in The Hague, the Netherlands right now but originally British/Indonesian. Yes, I am mixed! :D I came to the Netherlands to study International Tourism Management which I graduated from in July 2017!
The reason why I studied Tourism is because I am in love with travelling. Ever since from a young age, all I wanted was to travel the world and I thought this might be a good start. So I was born in Indonesia, but then moved to Germany when I was only 3 years old. Spent 8 years there and therefore also learned the language. Ja ich kann gut deutsch sprechen. Left Germany to move to the beautiful country of Switzerland and spent 4 years there only to move back to Indonesia before coming to the Netherlands alone. As you noticed I never actually lived in England haha.
Now you may be curious as to what I am doing in Holland, well I have a girlfriend here. Found a job in Amsterdam, a 50min train ride from home, only to realize that this job is not what I wanted. If you remember to what I was saying earlier, my dream was to Travel the World! How was I going to do that? Can't travel the world wile being stuck here as a travel agent, can't travel without a monthly income either.
So there I was, stuck.
Seeing all these people on Social Media, travelling the world, living in exotic destinations and drinking coconut on the beach. What a life!
I began to research how they are doing it. As you can imagine, Mr. Google gave tons of information on how. Now, I don't have a large following in Instagram so could not become an influencer right out the gate, didn't have photography skills so that option limits my possibilities. However, there are so many people who are just simply working online! So I began there.
After looking and looking desperately trying to find something that I could do from home I finally found something and I began to work on it after coming home from the job, on weekends, any spare time that I had was devoted to this.
After 3 months, I was able to finally quit my job, work from home full time and made a genuine good living from it. Currently also in the process of planning a world trip with my girlfriend and making my dreams come true. There is a lot to say about the benefits of working by yourself, from home, possibly on a beach one day and the sheer freedom you can get from this. I have never felt so alive.
I don't want to brag or anything, thought I would just share my story with you, and show that is possible in our decade to not having to work at a job that you hate only to pay the bills.
I hope this inspires you and I am looking forward to hearing your stories and how you are living life.
Just let me know in the comments, I would be more than happy to read them and also if you all have any tips on how to go about this platform (as I am a newbie) I would appreciate any tips from you guys.
Much love!
Jason
