About Nora
Nora Dunn is one of the original Lifestyle Travel Bloggers, having started her full-time travel lifestyle in 2006 and traveled full-time for 12 years. (She has a home base in Toronto now, and continues to travel for half of each year).
Specializing in slow travel, she has lived in and traveled through over 60 countries. She combines her expertise as a former Certified Financial Planner with her lifestyle travel experience, to teach people how to travel full-time in a financially sustainable way.
Nora’s travel experiences range from sublime to absurd to downright terrifying. She survived three natural disasters, three tropical diseases (apparently these things come in three’s), a near-fatal accident, passport theft, and more breakups than she’d care to admit to. She also saved over $100,000 getting free accommodation around the world. She filmed tv shows in three countries. She even apprenticed with a shaman for two years in Peru, and worked as a shaman’s assistant in Ecuador.
Through her immersive travel experiences, Nora has gained a unique insight into various locations and people, thus living out her lifelong dream of “hacking” into local cultures around the world. Her writing and speaking provides equal doses of entertainment, inspiration, and instruction.
