🏯 👧🏽 What happens when you sell most of what you own, leave behind stable 9–5 jobs, and decide to slow travel through Southeast Asia? Meet Zanesta & Nabeel, the creators behind Tiny Detour. Originally from Australia, they traded routine for freedom, leaning into lifestyle arbitrage and building a life on their own terms.

In this episode of the Expat Experts Podcast, we dive into their expat journey as a couple:

• Why they left Australia for slow travel in Southeast Asia
• The biggest challenges & surprising moments of living abroad together
• How they balance finances, relationships, and uncertainty
• Their best advice for mid-career professionals considering a similar leap
• Fun cultural comparisons through our travel mini-games
• A hilarious story from their adventures on the road

👉 Whether you’re dreaming of leaving the 9–5, curious about lifestyle arbitrage, or already living abroad, this conversation will inspire you to think differently about work, life, and freedom.
