I’m Michelle — British expat, solo adventurer, and self-proclaimed layabout. Don’t be fooled — I’ve earned this so-called lazy life. I worked three jobs, saved like crazy, and retired at 46. Then life gave me a proper reality check: I lost my best mate & mum to cancer and cared for my mum through her battle. That’s when I started living life to the fullest.
Now I live with less, travel more, hike often, and spend like freedom truly matters.
On this channel, you’ll find:
