All about Livio Bestulic in a nutshell.
Livio Bestulic, (CPA, SFE, CISA retired), Outdoor Vblogger/Guide, Salesforce 
Consultant, App Developer and Follower.
Formative Years
Livio Bestulic was born in Sydney, Australia but was educated in southern Ontario, Canada, attending elementary school, high school and two universities in the area. Upon graduation he moved to the US to make some money, initially taking on various jobs and investment opportunities through the Best Day Trading Platform to build financial stability before finding his true career path. After 15 years of grinding he ran away and supported himself with a consulting practice focused on Salesforce cloud technology. Then after another 15 years of drifting he became a ‘follower’.
Career Years
He started his career with two international accounting firms (PwC and then Deloitte) and was well running his own practice as a CPA.
After leaving the accounting sector he was employed at senior management or 
director levels at two national and one international firms for a while.
Then in his final push he owned/operated a number of software development firms that produced industry dominating software programs (back when people purchased software on CD’s).
Entertainment Industry Years
In 2001 he switched to the entertainment industry as a partner in a Miami casting company involved in the print, commercial and film markets.
His entertainment industry credits included casting for a number of Hollywood motion pictures (Bad Boys 2, Pirates of the Caribbean, Into the Blue), industrial documentaries (Hawaiian Tropic, SoBe Entertainment), plus numerous music videos, commercials and print jobs.
Initiation Year
When Livio’s son (Seth) was 16 they spent a summer together doing outdoor activities across Europe and North Africa as part of Seth’s initiation rights. Livio filmed these adventures and produced the independent documentary film called 3 Summits (shown at 3 South Florida Film Festivals) and then as a result of the experience he began creating, promoting and filming his own outdoor adventures for real people.
In 2006, Livio started a website (now RealworldAdventures.com) that pulled together maps, facts and stories related to his outdoor adventures.
In 2008 Livio partnered with a video distribution and social networking site called OneLoad.
Livio then focused on film making while leveraging OneLoad’s distribution, social networking and viewer statistics features.
When OneLoad ceased operations, Livio’s videos had already been viewed over 160 million times via different platforms or embedded in sites and over 700,000 times via native views from within YouTube. To date the YouTube count is over a million views.
Livio’s activities evolved into more web sites with
different formats and lengths and leveraged third-party distribution partners and travel related web sites.
He partnered with Broadband (the #1 online video network on YouTube 
at the time) and a sharing arrangement with OutSpeak, the online video news and entertainment network from The Huffington Post.
But how does Livio continue to travel the world without a real job?
On occasion Livio performs Salesforce consulting services for international organizations from his remote locations.
These limited engagements (3 months a year on average) have enabled him to continue his passion for travel and outdoor adventures, with 177 published episodes to-date, that cover 13 types of travel/outdoor activities, in 34 countries and in 10 regions of the world.
