From Corporate Lawyer to full-time YouTuber?!?
There are endless ways to travel the world. In our experience, we have had the opportunity to meet many wonderful people doing exactly that in their own way. Some travel solo, some travel with their partner, some continually travel full time, some travel with a program, and some travel a while to return home save money and do it all again.
We would like to introduce you to Kevin Martin, a new friend of ours embarking on a year of travel with the program Remote Year. Kevin actually found us through our YouTube channel. He commented on our videos and we came to really like what he is doing on his. Naturally, we had to have him on our show.
Learn a bit more about Kevin:
I am originally from St. Louis, Missouri. My love of travel started when I joined the United States Navy in 1994. I spent 20 years in the military and was fortunate to have the opportunity to travel all over the world (mostly by boat) and experience many different cultures. I lived in Hawaii and Italy and traveled to 17 other countries.
In 2015, I retired from the Navy and decided to go to law school in Washington DC. During law school, I took a 3-day trip to France and realized how much I missed traveling. I graduated from law school in 2018 and moved to NYC. In 2019, I decided to leave my job as a lawyer and travel full time as a travel vlogger and blogger.

Just listened to interview with Kevin Martin. I enjoyed the conversation. I found the interview questions thought provoking and interesting. I believe this these types of interviews are a great way to travel vicariously. I particularly liked one of the closing questions, “where would you travel if money were no object?” I haven’t pictured myself sitting a top of the Sphinx in Egypt, but I did through this interview. Awesome, what a way to imagine and almost feel a journey. I like what this type of programming brings shares and teaches. Thank you.
Hi Pam! Thank you so very much for listening and for your kind words.
