Remote Profile: Kimley Foster — Remote Year

Definitely the opportunity to travel with such an interesting group of people with diverse backgrounds was a huge drawcard, as was having everything organised for me. I was already living remotely, but looking for something more and when I heard about Remote Year it seemed like a no-brainer. The stars aligned, as they say…

WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON FOR THE YEAR?

I’ve just launched a line of ethically made, eco-friendly leggings, www.GoWildheart.com. It was both challenging and rewarding doing it from the road – and so opening! It was an idea I got while on Remote Year and it truly is a passion project, but I hope it’s also one that makes a difference in the world.

P.S.  After months on the new biz roller-coaster, the Remote Year community (Yes! That’s you!) can receive 20% off your order so you can take that saving, buy a drink and celebrate with me 🙂

HOW DID YOU FIND YOURSELF A REMOTE ROLE?

The nomad life was always on the cards for me, and I had quit my job and was working for myself as a freelance digital marketer. But I never imagined Remote year would lead to a complete change in career!! Life is full of surprises…

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO OTHERS LOOKING TO BRING TRAVEL INTO THEIR LIVES?

I would say GO FOR IT, but be ready for some challenges along the way that may make you question a lot of things – most importantly about yourself. Take it all as it comes, and don’t get too worked up.While travel is absolutely life changing in every way, working while traveling is another level. The growth that comes with it is amazing though, and worth every transformational second.
