How I Made £302.49 from Side Hustles in August!
August was a crazy month for me!! I spent half of it finishing off my second season at summer camp. And the second half travelling around the US, visiting some of my favourite people. That left little to no time for side hustles but I was able to get a couple of things done. Which I’m going to breakdown in this post. Now this post will breakdown exactly how much I made in August from side hustles but this isn’t necessarily how much I was paid. Some of my hustles take months for the money to actually physically hit my bank account. To get an idea of what I’m paid…

10k Side Hustle Challenge: Month 8 Update
I spent the first half of August working at a summer camp and the second half travelling around the USA visiting various friends. Incredible month personally but not so good for my side hustles. But that’s ok, it’s exactly what I was prepping for when I made over £2k back in May. Even though my time was super limited, I did still manage to do a few things and payments from months prior cleared which boosted my total. Right before I breakdown all incoming payments in August, let’s me explain exactly what my 10k side hustle challenge entails… The Rules This year I will have two main sources of income,…

£10k Side Hustle Challenge: Month 7 Update
Time for another 10k side hustle challenge update! July was probably my craziest work month so far this year. Which I knew would be the case. However, I did underestimate the lack of time I would have to side hustle so my total is a lot lower than usual. But due to some income from months previously clearing in my account, I’m super happy with the amount I got paid from side hustles in month 7 of my challenge. Right before I breakdown all incoming payments in July, let’s me explain exactly what my 10k side hustle challenge entails… The Rules This year I will have two main sources of…

£0-£10k Side Hustle Challenge: Month 6 Update
Month 6 of my 10k side hustle challenge was a weird one. It was the first month back working at camp so I wasn’t 100% sure how much time I would have to dedicate to side hustles. But I had a tonne of pending income from previous months that paid out in month 6. So my total paid is crazy compared to the hours I was able to dedicate to side hustling. It just shows how side hustles can snowball and your effort can paid off in the long term. Right before I breakdown all incoming payments in June, let’s me explain exactly what my 10k side hustle challenge entails……

£10k Side Hustle Challenge – Month 5 Update
Month 5 was the best month yet so far in this side hustle challenge! Both in terms of money I made from side hustles and the payments that actually hit my bank account. I was determined to have a good month as I knew my summer months were going to be a struggle. Camp is a 24/7 type of job where pockets of free time are limited so I wanted to get ahead on my goals in preparation. Right, before I breakdown all incoming payments in May, let’s me explain exactly what my 10k side hustle challenge entails… The Rules This year I have two main sources of income, my…

46 Days of Full Time Travel: Post Camp Trip Spending Diary!
Michigan, Nashville, Florida, New York, Antigua, Tulum… woah best post camp trip ever!!! And last year I did a two week New England road trip followed by two weeks in Italy. I had a 30-day travel period off the back of my J1 visa for camp that I wanted to take full advantage of. Then with nothing in the calendar until the end of September, I decided to head down to Central America and finally explore a little bit. Plus it gave me chance to put my almost-2 year Duolingo streak to good use 😂 But how much did I spend on my post camp trip? Let’s break it down……

How I Made £326.41 From Side Hustles In July!
Well, July was almost a write off month for side hustles. My entire month was spent working at a summer camp in West Virginia. Camp is super full on so I barely had time to do any side hustling. With this in mind, earning a total of £326.41 is actually kinda decent all things considered. Heads up! In my side hustle earnings reports I count every penny earned in the month of May not necessarily money that has hit my account. Let’s take freelancing as an example: the total you see in this post is the hours I worked in July but I probably won’t see this money until August…

How I Made £577.03 From My June Side Hustles!
June was a tough month to find time for side hustles as it was my first month back at camp. Working at a summer camp is a full on 24/7 job so the fact that I was able to still side hustle over £500 is INSANE to me! Spoiler alert – July did not go so well 😅 Heads up! In my side hustle earnings reports I count every penny earned in the month of June, not necessarily money that has hit my account. Let’s take freelancing as an example: the total you see in this post is the hours I worked in June but I probably won’t see this…
