Pause before downing that cup of coffee; the path as a contributor for Captain Words isn’t the tranquil $8-per-1000-word utopia.
While there’s the appeal of remote work and flexible schedules, crafting 10,000 words while managing household chores isn’t suited for the timid or those with shaky internet connections.
Amidst project challenges and occasional hunger pangs, you delve into the realms of iGaming, diamonds, and the unanticipated challenges of freelancing on the spot.
Aspire for advancement up the ladder and discover a more bountiful treasure trove. Don’t let go of your aspirations, but ensure your day job remains within reach.
Life during pandemic times: A tumultuous blend of constant travel, vanishing job offers, and precariously teetering freelance work. But wait, it’s not all gloom! Sprinkle in a chaos-induced family reunion after 40 years, the stressful soothing of a stressed mum in isolation, and a stubbornly elusive passport from Namibia. Who says variety is dead?
Trusted for impactful graphic design and IT skills, especially in print, packaging, and flexographic design, I’m available to engage in selective freelance assignments over weekends and after hours while on retainer. I’m not just open for CMS support and training, but also eager to delve into new avenues. Connect, collaborate, and discover more at dXine.art. No Tier or Crypto Scams. Drop my number and mail from your list.
When life gives you grounded flights, you turn it into a DIY-adventure at a backpacker’s lodge in East London. Between wrestling with feisty toilet brushes and sipping seaside wines, we built lasting connections, grasping breadmaking, fresh seafood-cooking, and coding between sunshine bathings. Lessons in volunteering? Personal growth and lifelong friendships beat posh vacations. Travel smart, stay safe, and when in doubt, plant a vineyard!
In the quirky world of 2020 pandemic-era life, my partner and I had to pivot from visas and jobs to volunteering and dabbling in design. Hunting online work was like seeking a unicorn. Our travel dreams got COVID-cancelled and left in limbo. Then, we navigated treacherous waters of cryptocurrency scams and stumbled on a low-key Bitcoin miner, Computta. It’s tantamount to finding a rare Pokémon that brings in pennies, and doesn’t require selling a kidney or your cousin Bob to work!
