The Book
Here’s what people are saying about the book ‘X Marks The Spot: The Indispensable Guide To Living As A LIP & Working From Anywhere’…
Leo Babauta, top productivity blogger from Zen Habits said…
“I found this book to be incredibly inspiring.
While I’ve been working towards similar goals myself, reading just the first two chapters of this book caused me to take a couple of hours out of my day to really look at my life, what I want out of it, and what I can do differently to achieve that. In fact, I called my wife and we had a great discussion about it!
It’s well written, interesting, informative and beautiful.”
Suzy Greaves, founder of The Big Leap Coaching Company, author of best-selling Making The Big Leap and named as ‘one of the top gurus to change your life around’ by The Daily Mail said…

More Comments About The Book

“It is an easy read and covers a lot of information. The early chapters describe Lea’s background and how she and her husband got into the LIP Lifestyle. It goes over the places they have lived and their rationale for choosing those locations. I like this part because it builds up her “creds”; a lot of authors write about a subject with which they are not familiar; she walks the walk.
After this, the book starts getting really meaty. It goes into the rationale for doing it, facing your fears, how to get started, and the basic nuts and bolts of what you need to do and things you need to consider. The book is chock full of tips and hints, and the Appendix has an excellent list of additional resources…I consider the book a valuable resource, and an excellent how-to book on living the Location Independent Professional lifestyle.”

The book is excellent and as someone who has lived in quite a few places around the world, I have to say that it is worth every penny. In fact that’s not true as there’s so much great info in the book that really it’s just a token price - the true value of what it can save you in terms of time, money, stress and inspiration would be far, far higher…
To all you lurkers and potential LIPs out there - I can’t recommend “X Marks the Spot” too highly - and I’ve lived in Bristol, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Crete, New York, Chicago, Barcelona, Madrid, Bath and now a small village in deep Spain so I know what I’m talking about
Lea is practically giving the book away, so give the girl some beer money from this great blog which benefits us all…
