Episode 18: Jeffrey Kontur Traveled to 25 Countries as a Freelance Writer

Jeffrey Kontur is a freelance copywriter who is currently wandering the world in search of warm weather, history, culture and a well-balanced quality of life. I caught up with him in Oregon, where he was relaxing on the porch with the dogs he was petsitting.

Jeff had come to my attention with an article he wrote, which posed the question for freelance writers, “how many clients do you need to make a good living?” We discuss this, the 25 countries he’s visited in the past five years, and other aspects of the freelance writer’s life, in this episode.
