Presenting the 2023 edition - updated December 2022! Imagine living the lifestyle you want while making money and working anywhere in the world. Imagine enjoying the beaches in Thailand one day, then trying the best pizza in Italy the next.
It sounds like a dream — travel anywhere you want, make money doing something you enjoy, and live life to the fullest. It's not a dream, though — a growing number of digital nomads are leaving the 9-to-5 life and choosing to take control of their life.
What's a digital nomad? A person who travels as they like, lives where they want, and does their work digitally. They have no cubicle and no dress code. Digital nomads are young, old, male, female, single, married, have children, and are from almost every country on this planet. If you want to become a digital nomad, nothing can stop you.
"...an incredibly comprehensive resource to take you from the idea of being a digital nomad to making it a reality, covering logistics, planning, and even the emotional process thereof.”
The Professional Hobo, AKA Nora Dunn (theprofessionalhobo.com)
Becoming a Digital Nomad offers a proven step-by-step guide to test and transition into the digital nomad lifestyle. It's one part travel guide and one part how-to.
