In this episode of the Nomad Summit Podcast, we sit down with Alison and Graham, the couple behind Vet Around the World.
Recorded in Chiang Mai, this conversation explores a very different kind of nomadic setup – one built around veterinary work, house-sitting, remote consulting, and long-term travel systems rather than typical remote jobs.
Alison is a qualified veterinarian who works remotely through telehealth and triage services, while Graham brings a background as a ship's officer and ship's medic. Together, they've been traveling full time for around eight years and have completed close to 100 house-sits along the way.
We talk about how they built a sustainable nomadic lifestyle, how house-sitting became a cornerstone of their travel model, and how Alison made the leap into remote veterinary work across time zones. They also share the realities of working irregular hours, building long-term systems, and why YouTube has become an important part of their future plans.
This episode is a grounded, practical look at alternative paths to location independence – and a reminder that there's more than one way to build a life on the road.
