Who am I?

Hey there! I'm Gabby Beckford and I travel the world-full time as a digital nomad 🌎

In 2022 I was selected as a past of the inaugural 100 of LinkedIn's Creator Accelerator Program as a Future of Work Expert, with a specialization in Remote Work, and in 2023 I'm currently a LinkedIn Top Voice for my content expertise in the same area. I've been featured in top publications like YahooFinance, The New York Times, The Huffington Post, and more.

That is to say... I am super passionate about helping people work remotely and travel the world!I've done so as an entrepreneur and travel influencer for the past 3 years, but my journey wasn't simple.

After college, I worked a 9-5 job as a quality engineer in GovTech for 2 years before quitting in 2020, just 2 weeks before the COVID-19 lockdown... Despite the stress, I managed to build my successful travel business first from my home and then from the road, building a 6-figure business while traveling through Jordan, The Republic of Georgia, Mexico, Turkey, Poland, and so many more places.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Gabby @packslight

Hi, I’m Gabby 👋🏽 I own Packs Light and am a full-time digital nomad from the United States. I've touched 55+ countries, and I'm a true lover of immersive, cultural, and adventurous travel experiences! 🪂 I was born in California but moved around often thanks to my parents—dad was in the military, mom was a travel agent. Thanks to my nomadic childhood I became confident in navigating this world (even as a young, Black, curly-haired sassy little girl!) At age 17 I went on my first solo trip to backpack Iceland. At age 21 I studied abroad in Dubai, UAE for 9 months. And by age 24 had completely abandoned my budding engineering career to pursue my dream of being a full-time travel influencer! Now I have experience in 50+ countries and 6 continents, have accumulated 800,000 followers, and have a lifetime of tips, trips, stories, and recommendations to share. I love helping others see the world. I love helping people explore past the first page of Google. And I love turning travel bucket lists into exciting stories to impress your friends and family at the dinner table. Follow me, and let me guide you through your next trip!
