Tinder couple quit work to travel the world and now make £6,000 a month

A couple who quit work to travel for a living are now raking in £6,000 a month - by helping others to find budget deals. Ex-doctor Jenna Carr and Joao Paias, both 33, met on Tinder in 2017 while she was on holiday in his native Portugal and fell in love over their shared passion for travel.

They travelled across Portugal and the UK, as well as France and Switzerland before jetting over to Asia and visiting the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and Bali. And when they fell pregnant with surprise baby Leo, now three, they ignored criticism and advice to take him on holiday aged just two weeks.

Sharing parenting travel tips online to fellow nomads saw her audience grow until she was able to give up her stressful job as locum doctor in February. They explored Cyprus and the Greek islands in 2019, as well as Italy, before travelling across the US - with a quick jaunt to the Bahamas - and finishing in New York.
