A couple sold their house to travel around the world with their family - after the cost of living crisis squeezed their disposable income. .
The couple sold their house in January and left for Thailand in May. So far the family has travelled around Thailand and Malaysia but they planned to visit nine more countries over the next year.Back in England, the family of five would spend an average of £3,000 a month which covered their mortgage, bills, petrol, groceries and other basic expenses.
The couple have enough money saved to travel for a whole year without worrying about work and settle down again after their travels. They also generate a small amount of money from their social media channels. "Family time is the biggest benefit to us. The time we spend together is irreplaceable and that’s the main reason for doing what we are doing. We decided during COVID, when we were able to spend so much time together, we realised that that was what we wanted to do."
