Paid to Wander the World - Gypsea Lust


"Let's get wander-fully lost"

If I could have any job of choice in the world, it would be to simply travel the world and post Instagram photos while being paid for it. This career is a reality for the duo world-wanderer's Lauren Bullen, also known as @gypsea_lust on Instagram, and partner Jack Morris, @doyoutravel. With no one sole place to call home, the couple permanently travel the world and are paid to do so by companies and clients who use them to create Instagram content, promoting the beauty of different countries and places.


With nearly 2 million followers combined, the bloggers lives look like a living postcard, photographing magic moments in Morocco, the canals and colours of Venice, blue grottos of Greece, hidden hills of Hawaii, and currently adventuring the Caribbean.

Not that you could tell by looking at Gypsea Lust's breathtaking shots capturing the wonders of the world in the most stunning angles, lighting and filters, but she is a self-taught photographer and uses her iPhone 6 and Canon 5dmk3, and takes advantage of a tripod and timer for cute-couple candids.

Being a travel-lifestyle blogger/photo-journalist is my ultimate fantasy career-path, and for anyone else willing to pursue it and reach the success of Lauren and Jack, it requires an eye for aesthetic appeal, a good lens; whether being your profesh camera, GoPro or iPhone cam with a good filter, and the ability to take any location or moment and transform it into a creative visual masterpiece.

The couples journey just goes to show the monumental power and influence of Instagram to shape your career, and it's ability to provide a lifestyle by creating a unique imaginative space that others will respond to.

Welcome to the "office" of Lauren and Jack ➷
