Feedback About My eBooks
- “I know for sure that your travels and ways of story sharing have had a greatly positive impression on my travels and blogging. I can think of no better person with greater travel experience than you to write an overall travel guide like this!”
- “Just finished going through How to Live a Life of Travel and I’m really impressed with all the work you put into it and how helpful it is. You covered absolutely everything.”
- “How To Live A Life Of Travel is the most comprehensive guide I’ve read for people who want to get out the door and travel more. It is a complete resource with Earl showing you the way and tackling every problem from multiple angles. Along with Earl’s entertaining personal travel story, by the end you’ll be encouraging your friends to come with you since you’ll be more than convinced a life of travel is possible for anyone.”
- “Me & the hubby are reading this now. Amazing information. Truly a comprehensive guide to making your/our dreams a reality – we were hooked BEFORE we found Earl, but you have a way of metaphorically strapping on the rocket booster and giving us a match.”
- “I just bought your e-book and can’t stop reading it! It’s easily worth the $27 dollars, if not more.
- “Earl was a big inspiration to us and his travel blog is one of our favourites. He has now written an eBook called How to Live a Life of Travel to help you do just that. If you have the desire to travel but have been overwhelmed by everything it takes to make it happen then Earl’s book is the perfect way to get started. It’s the guide we wish we had before we started travelling.”
- “Just wanted to let you know I finally sat down to read your book, and I’m loving it! Very inspirational & practical.”

Back in 1999, I left home for a 3 month trip to Asia that has still yet to end.
