In today's world, many people have opted to work at their own pace, at their own time, and be their own boss. All this while traveling the world. Sounds like a life straight from your dreams, just before you wake for your 9-5 job? It is indeed a tempting choice to work when and where based on your whim and live your life on your own terms. This can be a truly liberating experience. But it is not without a challenge to get here. Many have gone down this road but have remained unsuccessful. Earning while you travel is a risky business. There are certain things that work and don't work. Here are certain things you must keep in mind. You can begin by investing in a catchy domain. This will help you gain a strong brand identity and garner the right audience for your content. Going off the beaten track is as adventurous as is lucrative. People want to know about things they have never heard of before. The same destinations don't attract a crowd. Your biggest payoff will come from being authentic. Talking about things openly and freely will show you in a positive light to people watching you. They will know you hide nothing. If you choose to go a certain way, you cannot be in a dilemma. You have to be sure of what you are doing. Going all in is a cornerstone for endeavors such as this. Not everything is meant to be done alone. This is where you bring in a team of like-minded people who will hold the sails forward. A strong team can keep you motivated to push forward. Get inventive and see where you are going strong. Strengthen the bits that are already bringing in profits. Consider introducing your own line of travel accessories. Your business may be online but going physical never harmed anyone. Dabbling between the two is a good idea. Finally, stay patient and keep yourself disciplined. This is going to be a tough time initially but keep yourself prepared mentally. That will help you refrain from giving up. Keep Reading: 10 Best Restaurants In The US Maldives And Bora Bora Among Top 10 Tourists Spots In The World

Officials have issued a statement that Thailand is bent on restoring the confidence of tourists in the tourism sector. The statement follows closely on the heels of a mass shooting at a luxury mall. Two foreigners have been killed, and it has made hopes of attracting overseas visitors a distant dream. On Tuesday, the police arrested a 14-year-old boy suspected of having unleashed a barrage of gunfire at the Siam Paragon Mall. The location being the center of Bangkok’s commercial zone has raised all too many eyebrows. The incident caused the death of two women- one of them from China and the other from Myanmar, injuring five people. Governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Thapanee Kiatphaibool, has said that the agencies have vowed to do their best to restore confidence. "We need to improve security in all areas for Thai and foreign tourists," she said without explaining any necessary steps being taken. Somsong Sachaphimukh, Vice President of the Tourism Council of Thailand industry group, has remarked, "This will impact tourism confidence and will affect our reputation. In the past, there were complaints about safety from China but this was something unthinkable." Chinese tourists have accounted for 11 million of the 39.9 million foreign visitors in Thailand in 2019. Tourism so far has been pretty slow, and it has prompted the government to decide on the visa waiver ahead of the peak season. Thai Examiner issued a report on the fee situation so far. The visa waiver will be collected from foreign travelers to provide “emergency medical health insurance cover and other benefits for 30 days from the point of entry.” The report explained that the fee needs “to be paid on arrival at kiosks at Immigration Bureau points of entry, including at airports after landing. The fee will also be delivered via a website or smartphone app.” It further added that “The tourism fee is supported broadly by the tourism industry as its tourist insurance fund is considered an essential step forward given the repeated stories of tragedies, accidents, and personal disasters which occur every year.” Read Also: Israel Government Declares War: Multiple Flights Cancelled National Taco Day: How To Celebrate If You Are From Chicago Columbus Day And Indigenous People’s Day: What IS Open And What Is Closed?

Ali Sabry, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, has tweeted. The minister has stated that the pilot project that is to commence immediately will be extended until March 31, 2024. Sabry posted, “Cabinet approves issuing of free visas to India, China, Russia, Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia and Thailand with immediate effect as a pilot project till 31 March.” Earlier in March, Sri Lankan foreign minister Ali Sabry said that Sri Lanka’s relationship with India is ‘one of the most important in our foreign policy.’ Visitors from the mentioned countries can now obtain visas from Sri Lanka without charges. This is a significant change, given that India has been Sri Lanka’s primary source of inbound tourism. Reports by PTI say, according to the statistics for September, India has led north of 30,000 arrivals which comprise 26% of the total. Chinese tourists follow closely as the second-largest group with over 8,000 arrivals. The island country has seen a fall in tourist arrivals since the 2019 Easter Sunday bombings. It resulted in the tragic loss of 270 lives. It included 11 Indians and over 500 civilians injured. Sri Lanka has been fighting a severe economic crisis since its British independence in 1948. Currently, the country is facing political unrest that is marked by protests and calls for President Rajapaksa’s resignation. The economic crisis has created shortages of basic necessities like food, medicine, cooking gas, and fuel. Even toilet paper and matches are nearly unavailable. Sri Lankans have been enduring the long lines outside stores for their basic needs for months now. They have to wait to buy fuel as well as cooking gas due to the shortages. The Ministry of Tourism has recently revealed that during the preceding Cabinet meeting, a Cabinet Paper was introduced. It suggests the provision of complimentary tourist visas to foreign travelers from five countries planning to visit Sri Lanka for tourism.
