I was broke and homeless but now I make six figures… here is how I turned my life around

A man who was broke and homeless but now rakes in hundreds of thousands of dollars a year as a travel influencer has revealed how you too can earn money by exploring the world - even if you don't have a big online following. Jaromir Cabla, who goes by Jaro online, 26, originally from Prague, Czech Republic, said his love of travel was ignited after he moved to Oahu, Hawaii, at age five. He explained exclusively to the Daily Mail that growing up on an island that's so small you could 'drive across it in just one hour' resulted in him feeling 'very boxed in' throughout his childhood. 'I had this itch to see more of the world at a very young age,' he said. In November 2019, Jaro hit the 'lowest point of his life' after years of feeling 'overwhelmed, anxious, and completely stuck mentally.' He had just broken up with his girlfriend and moved to California, where he slept on a friend's floor with no job, income, or permanent home. Then, in February 2020, he decided to sell all of his belongings and use the money to purchase a one-way ticket to New Zealand to 'chase the feeling of freedom,' and he hasn't looked back since. 'After buying a one-way ticket in February of 2020, I've been traveling the world full-time for the last five plus years,' he explained. He told the Daily Mail that growing up on an island in Hawaii that's so small you could 'drive across it in just one hour' resulted in him feeling 'very boxed in' throughout his childhood 'Once I experienced what freedom actually felt like, I knew there was no going back. Since then, travel has been my greatest treasure.' First, he spent eight months 'hitchhiking' around New Zealand by himself with nothing but a 'backpack and his surfboard.' While he said he barely had a 'penny to his name,' he said it was the happiest he had ever been. 'It was the first time I experienced real freedom in my life, the freedom of the road, the smiles you'd meet, the experiences that you just couldn't make up,' he gushed. Jaro has now been to over 35 countries, and has turned his passion into a lucrative business. He explained that he started documenting his adventure for fun on social media with no plans to become a travel influencer. But about a year into his travels, one of his videos unexpectedly went viral and sparked his first brand deal. 'That was the moment I realized: I can build a life around storytelling, and inspiring others to pursue their own passions by choosing a different sort of lifestyle,' he dished. He now has over 1.2 million followers on Instagram and said he earns $15,000–$40,000 per month depending on the brand deals he gets He now has over 1.2 million followers on Instagram and said he earns between $15,000 and $40,000 per month depending on the brand deals he gets. And while he has gained a massive following in just a few years, he believes others can make money as a travel influencer like him even if they don't have social media fame. He said it comes down to having an interesting 'story' to tell more than owning a 'fancy camera' or knowing how to take pretty pictures. 'You don't need a huge following or a full team - I started with an iPhone and raw stories, posting by myself, with minimal equipment,' said Jaro. 'In fact, I didn't own anything I couldn't fit into the one-backpack I traveled with. 'You need to start with your why - the passion behind your story is more important than a fancy camera. 'A strong why, or a reason for what you're doing will make your success inevitable, because each time you have a low moment, you come back to your why, and it helps you push through.' He said to focus on creating content that 'makes people feel' and tells a story, and stressed the importance of building an 'emotional connection' with your audience. He also pointed out that people relate more to 'something real' and recommended being yourself rather than trying to make everything look 'perfect' online. 'Focus on value and relatability, not perfection. It's more important to be consistent and to show up for you audience online than to constantly try to curate something "perfect." People want real,' he explained. 'We're all human, and we all relate to one another through the same human desires, fears, dreams, etc.' Jaro recently launched his own coaching service called NoMoreMondays, which is dedicated to helping others 'pursue their passions as creators on social media' - and it brought in over $100,000 in its first month alone. In the end, he said he feels 'blessed' that he can help others have the opportunity to 'get paid to do what they're passionate about' like him.

Rangers-linked Conor Coady a transfer 'target' for Wrexham

The big-spending Welsh side are gearing up to play in the Championship this season following three successive promotions. The Hollywood-owned side are looking to reach the Premier League within the next two years. And the Daily Mail report that they are aiming to lodge an ambition bid for Coady. The 32-year-old is set to leave Leicester City this summer. The report states that both Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenny believe they can make it all the way to the big time by 2027, and the addition of Coady to Phil Parkinson's squad would go a long way to helping achieve that. Wrexham are also on the verge of smashing their transfer record for a third time this summer by sealing a £7.5m move for Ipswich Town's Nathan Broadhead. Rangers have been heavily linked with a move for Coady all summer. Russell Martin has targeted the English markets when conducting his transfer business.

Wondering how Prince William and Kate Middleton have been spending the summer—aside from showing up to the occasional event and looking posh? Apparently, they took a secret vacation on board a £40 million superyacht off the coast of Greece. And it's been kept almost entirely under-the-radar until now (honestly, even the reporting that does exist is a little murky). According to the Daily Mail, stories began popping up in Greek media around July 19 that the Prince and Princess of Wales were "enjoying the largesse of Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a prominent member of the UAE royal family." The outlet also notes that the story of Will and Kate's trip was "ignored by the British media" but picked up around the world, with locals and eyewitnesses claiming they were seen. the truth? Per the Daily Mail, the Prince and Princess were were actually on the Almax, "one of the world's first fuel-cell superyachts which is estimated to be worth £40 million" and is described as a "huge milestone in the future of sustainable boating." Prince William and his daughter Princess Charlotte left the trip to watch the Lionesses in the Euros final (which took place in Switzerland), and apparently the entire family is now back in England. that on that!

Why Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty Are Ending Marriage

Today in unexpected news from the world of famous TV hosts you haven't thought about in a moment: So You Think You Can Dance's Cat Deeley and This Morning's Patrick Kielty have called it quits after 13 years of marriage. The pair released a statement to The Sun confirming their breakup, saying "We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment." So, what went wrong? A source tells the Daily Mail that Cat and Patrick "have been living separate lives for the best part of a year. It is such sad news. They were so happy after they moved back to London, and would talk about their grand plans to renovate the house for the family. But sadly, as so often happens with relationships, work got in the way and it put a huge strain on the marriage." Apparently, the couple also had "stress" on their relationship due to renovation plans for a £5million home they purchased in 2023, which...I cannot relate to, but okay! Anyway, these two first met co-hosting in 2002, and their romance kicked off a decade later. Patrick previously said, "Well, there had always been a spark between us, but either she was with someone or I was, and then she moved to LA. Unless someone was stupid enough to get on a plane, nothing would have happened." That eventually changed, and they tied the knot in 2012.
