The Traveling Bookwitch: Escape Routes project was created by Sarah Decker (also known as Iris Quill) after years of traveling the world and learning how to navigate visas, plane tickets, and health insurance systems that most people find overwhelming.

What began as a personal passion for freedom and cross-cultural understanding turned into a calling. Sarah realized that the knowledge she took for granted — how to move between countries, build stability abroad, and live sustainably — wasn’t easily available in one place.

So she wrote a series of books to make that information accessible. Then came the blog, the Substack, and one-on-one coaching, helping others turn their desire for change into a concrete plan.

Today, Traveling Bookwitch Coaching offers guidance to those who want an ethical, legal, and sustainable way to build a life that crosses borders, thoughtfully and courageously.

(Not, while The Traveling BookWitch has done a lot of research, and will give you access to that research, she is not a lawyer, and any advice is more informative)
