Do you travel full-time or are you based somewhere?<\/h4>\n

Currently, I split my time between New York City and Amsterdam. I grew up in Northern California and lived there until 2016, when I moved abroad to Amsterdam (also when I started Find Us Lost). I typically spend the majority of the year traveling. Here’s a post featuring the timeline of how I moved abroad and got started blogging.<\/a><\/p>\n

How can you afford to travel so much?<\/h4>\n

Prior to working full-time as a travel blogger, I saved up money for years to be able to travel and move abroad. Before relocating to Amsterdam, my husband and I went on a 3-month road trip through Europe<\/a>, which is when I started continuously taking photos and blogging. Now my trips are either sponsored by a brand or tourism board (in which I shoot content or promote a destination), or self-funded.<\/p>\n

What camera do you use to shoot photos?<\/h4>\n

I use a Canon 5D and Leica Q2 to shoot photos. Lately I’ve been shooting more with my Leica camera, as it’s lightweight and easy to pack. Here is an up-to-date list of the camera gear I use for travel photography.<\/a> You can also visit the photography section of my blog<\/a> for more editing and photography tips and recommendations.<\/p>\n

How do you edit your photos?<\/h4>\n

I edit all of my photos in Adobe Lightroom. You can purchase the exact Lightroom presets I use to edit my photos through my online shop<\/a>. If you’re just starting out with photo editing, this guide breaks down everything you need to get started<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Is blogging your full-time job?<\/h4>\n

Yes, I’m a full-time blogger and photographer. In addition I also take on jobs to create content (both photo and video) for hotels, tourism boards, and lifestyle brands.<\/p>\n

How do you make money from blogging?<\/h4>\n

I make an income through my blog from affiliate links and sponsored content, as well as from selling my photography presets. From time to time you may see a ‘sponsored by’ note on my blog posts, indicating paid-for content. I sometimes make a small commission from my affiliate links if you click and\/or make a purchase through them (at no cost to you, so thank you!). In addition to my blog, I make an income from content creation and photography shoots.<\/p>\n
