Guy Quits Job and Sells Everything He Owns Just to Travel With His Cat

Rich East is a little different than most people. He decided to quit his job and sell all his possessions so he could travel. The best part? He wanted to be accompanied by the best creatures in the world: his cat named Willow!

Rich and Willow have enjoyed beautiful sights across Australia starting in 2015.

Rich had a career, a house in the suburb full of things, a garden but one thing he didn’t have was happiness. So one day, Rich woke up with the idea to design a new life for himself. He quit his job and sold everything. The idea was to build a new home on wheels and travel across the country with his cat. Willow is a rescue cat, and has traveled more than 50,000 kilometers across the country. They have been traveling in a camper van since Rich left his home in Hobart, Tasmania.



Willow is actually living her best cat life.

The duo have reached South Australia and have visited 6 states and 2 territories of Australia. They sailed the Great Barrier Reef and camped on mountains in Burketown, Queensland and the Northern Territory.

Some have said their adventure is peculiar but Willow has nothing to complain about and she has a tracker. The cat is usually on a collar and enjoys her time on the camp.
