Would you commute 3,000 miles for a job? Does this lady share why she does that every day?
For people a tough commute means a crowded train or traffic jam. For Georgia Samuels, it means flying 3,000 miles every two weeks. Despite the distance, she is at peace with her routine. It helps her balance a job in a remote Western Australian mine with a dream life in Bali.Georgia works as a health and safety adviser in a mine. She follows a "two weeks on, two weeks off" schedule. Many people wouldn't want her job. She loves it. Six months ago, she sold her car. Moved from Perth to Indonesia. She says she hasn't regretted it.Georgia moved to Bali to find a community. In Perth she struggled to make friends during her time off. She saw videos on media about Bali's fitness and wellness culture. She realized her schedule gave her the freedom to live anywhere. Now she uses her downtime to explore the island and meet people.Bali has been good for her finances too. She saves hundreds of dollars every month compared to her expenses in Australia. The cost of living is low so she can enjoy luxury for less. She hasn't cooked a meal in six months because eating out is affordable.
A fancy date night with steak and oysters costs more than $150.Georgia isn't the one doing this. There's a trend of people living in one place and working in another. Ethan Spibey is an example. He and his husband sold their home in London, where they paid £2,500 a month in mortgage. Now they rent a penthouse in Barcelona for £1,700 a month.Ethan works remotely from Spain. He travels to London two or three times a month for client meetings. He uses the 25 flights between Barcelona and London. Like Georgia, he's happier and financially better off with his commute.
