Why not just make this permanent and keep traveling? Better yet, stay in one place for a month or more so that you can buckle down on projects and get to know the area better?

It seems like you are doing this as a temporary thing. Or assuming that because your girlfriend is going to try picking up work, then maybe it's just temporary for her? Why not remove the blocks and take on / seek good projects that wouldn't be limited by a 2 - 3 days / week schedule? If your girlfriend is able to pick up work, then why not continue hammering on that to bring in more clients and build up a strong business?

It just seems like a waste to be building a client base for a certain lifestyle and then breaking that back down when you finish your travels. However, I do understand that a lot of people do freelance work to bridge income gaps and it's not a good way to maximize your reach in making your mark on the world.

I moved to the Philippines and then quit traveling. ;) I guess I decided that I really like the Philippines and would rather focus on work. Good weather, lots of English speakers and an easy to work with visa.
