My name is Tim Anderson. I support myself through my freelance writing via Complete Writing Solutions and the immersion guides and expat living/lifestyle guides here. You can find a detailed resume over at the CWS website, but as far as what I do here, it’s really quite simple.

I believe in something called freedom. The freedom to live life as I see fit, to spend my money on what I believe is necessary, not what some corporation/entity is telling me I need to spend it on. I love to travel, and I love exploring cultures around the world. This website is a way for me to share that passion with my fans and followers, expand people’s horizons when it comes to exploring cultures around the world and teach them just how easy it is to transition into and enjoy the location independent lifestyle while still retaining all the amenities, benefits and medical care they are used to having in the Western industrialized world.

I explore the world as a location independent expat specializing in long-term immersion travel while living in locations where my money goes 3-4 times the distance it would in any Western country, yet at the same time I have every single amenity I always had when I was living back in Colorado. I cut my cost of living from 2,500-3,000 USD a month down to 600-800 dollars a month, I’m debt free and for all intents and purposes I’m retired, only working a few hours per day while enjoying a far more relaxing life than I ever did while working the 9-to-5 grind back in the United States. I’m a global citizen who shares roots with every other human being on the planet, and my life is on my terms, financially and in every other way.

My mission is simple: to dispel the myths surrounding foreign countries and to show you the how and why you should be living abroad as a location independent digital nomad rather than tucked away in the comfort of suburbia. I explain how to enjoy a higher quality of life that lets you spend 8 hours or more a day living life rather than working a 9-to-5 job, and I show you exactly how to live like a local in various countries around the world. The immersion guides sold here include detailed, hands-on information that is gathered personally by me over extended periods of time while I live in various destinations, ranging from the best schools for your kids to the best doctors to utilize as part of your medical tourism circuit, and I set you up with local connections to find cheap rentals as well as real estate, plus I go deep into the heart of each city and area, showing you the plazas, parks, malls, theaters, restaurants, public transportation routes and everything you need to know to integrate into local culture as a resident, not just another tourist.

Meanwhile, the information provided on the site as well as in our newsletter gives you detailed tips and hints on how to live like a local in various destinations around the world, how to set up multiple income streams to utilize for visas and the cost of living in places like Mexico, Bulgaria, Colombia and beyond, how to live like a king on what others consider a shoestring budget, and how to retire in a mere two or three years versus the 40+ years most Western societies tell you that you need. You can also read the completely free ebook, 30 Ways in 30 Days: Transitioning into the Location Independent Digital Nomad Lifestyle, which is complimentary when you sign up for the newsletter. In short, I teach you how to live life to its fullest while exploring the entire planet, rather than only sticking to suburbia.

I’ve been traveling since 1999 and living abroad since January of 2008. I’ve owned and operated businesses in four countries, opened bank accounts in three countries and established residency in three countries. I am an international citizen with global experience as an expat.

I’ve made a successful career of living life on my own terms and being effectively retired despite only being 32 years old rather than waiting to be 65, the traditional age at which most people are “allowed” to retire and pursue their traveling dreams, and I’m currently on a mission to spread that freedom to as many people as possible. Marginal Boundaries is my platform for helping people unplug from The Matrix and take control of their lives so they can explore life as a digital nomad with absolute freedom and control.
