Libby Rome
she/her

Minimalist nomad • Living on cruise ships • Financial independence

Libby and her husband have lived as minimalists and nomads since 2010, trading traditional home life for freedom, simplicity, and global exploration. Today, they live full‑time on cruise ships, and Libby shares what this unconventional lifestyle really looks like — the routines and the surprising joys and challenges of living at sea.

She retired early from her (remote) corporate career at age 52 in April 2026 thanks to financial independence through smart financial planning, intentional minimalism, and a bit of strategic casino play. She now shares the costs and realities.
