There are tons of stories out there about couples who quit their jobs to travel the world, but Leeann and Max Sadler's story, as detailed on their blog The Passport Pair, is a little bit different.
"We kind of envy those people that quit everything to travel, and we don't exactly know how they do it," Max told INSIDER. "So I think we're taking a more realistic approach, trying to balance having student loans and working real jobs while also having the desire to travel."
So instead of quitting their jobs to travel, the Sadlers are moving from Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Cape Town, South Africa, to work remotely and save money while they're at it.
South Africa holds a special place in their hearts.
While the couple met in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Max was living in Cape Town, South Africa, at the time, going to school. Leeann had never been abroad.
"We met and had a 13-hour first date and were like, 'Okay, let's do this,' and so then we committed to doing long distance," Leeann said.
Max went back to school in Cape Town, and after six months of a long distance relationship, Leeann flew across the world to visit him.
"It was kind of out of character for me because I'm a very big planner," Leeann said.
Together, they took a road trip across South Africa, Namibia, the Caprivi Strip, and Botswana.
