You must have a pretty well-paying job because most jobs don't pay enough for you to really generate anything other than very mediocre savings.

If I were to try this I'd probably last about 4 months and then run out of money.

Not really, actually. I live somewhat frugally. And when I say “travel” I usually mean very low cost traveling involving lots of camping.

Curious, do you plant your own fruits and vegetables? (looking to learn hydroponics)

Ah definitely try. It's not very complex to do basic things as some may make it seem. Just get some plants a container and a water pump for circulation as well as a general liquid fertilizer

Nope. I wish. I try not to own a lot of stuff because I might move again eventually. Maybe there’s a good way to do it simply and temporarily. But I’ve scored living situations in places with gardens and fruit trees.
