WHY BECOME A DIGITAL NOMAD?

In our (increasingly or completely) connected world, there are more and more benefits in becoming a digital nomad and traveling the world on your schedule. Flexibility is one of the best perks you can get from this lifestyle, allowing you to manage your own schedule, travel at your leisure, or even set up shop in an exotic location and get work done from the beach if you want.

Do you plan on living in Thailand and spending your days lounging on the beach with nothing but your laptop and an internet connection to keep you company? What about working remotely from a coffee shop in New York City? Or maybe setting up shop in your hometown of Seattle, Washington, while still enjoying the perks of working remotely? These are valid digital nomad lifestyles and aren’t far off each other.

Because we finally can

COVID forced(or enabled) remote work as we know it today. And the barriers for international travel and starting a business have never been lower. You only need a laptop, an internet connection, and a job which allows remote work. Or a business idea you can start yourself. And with more and more countries becoming visa-free, there's no excuse not to explore the world. Why should we spend our lives stuck in one place?

Work on your own terms

For some people, the thought of being chained to a desk from 9-5 is enough to send them running for the hills. If that sounds like you, then a life of digital nomading might be for you! The ability to travel and work simultaneously is a huge draw for many people. And with technology making it easier to connect with clients and coworkers from anywhere in the world, there’s no reason not to try it. Digital Nomads tend to spread their hours over the whole day. Enjoying two hours of sunshine at the beach during the day, but then working two hours in the evening; assuming your projects or customers allow that.

Freedom to travel and explore

As a Digital Nomad, you have the freedom to travel and explore as you work. You can experience new cultures and meet new people while earning an income. This is one of the biggest perks of being a Digital Nomad for many people. You can work from anywhere in the world, giving you tremendous freedom and flexibility.

Final Thought

Digital Nomad or Remote Work is on the rise, and their numbers are growing rapidly. The advantages of being able to work from anywhere are too numerous to list here, but in short, being a digital nomad allows you to live your life on your terms while still earning money doing what you love most.
