I used to be obsessed with world travel when I was in high school. When I wanted to travel, I turned to the Discovery Channel. College came and went, but I was fixated on my dream of travelling around the world without worrying about anything. Soon after, I began working as a content writer for a company. Because it was a remote job, I could work, get paid, and travel all at the same time. I was enjoying it, and before I knew it, I had become a digital nomad, and it had become my way of life.
Here I am, telling you about my digital nomad lifestyle and why you should follow suit.
"Hey man, how can I become like you and live the digital nomad lifestyle?" people frequently emailed me.
This is similar to asking, "How can I become an office worker?"
Don't get me wrong: both digital nomadic and office lifestyles are broad concepts. What we know about them is only the surface. I'll tell you what's inside right here.
On the inside, it's a job and a means of making money.
What Exactly Is the Digital Nomad Lifestyle?
A digital nomad is someone who earns a living remotely via the internet, usually while travelling and living nomadicly. Because of the remote nature of the job, digital nomads have the freedom and flexibility to work from anywhere with a Wi-Fi connection.
Isn't it fascinating?
The truth behind this term is that a digital nomad is a lifestyle that you choose to live rather than a job.
You must first figure out how to make money if you want to be a digital nomad. Typically, the nomadic component and the money/work component are distinct. In general, finding work that allows for a nomadic lifestyle follows the same steps as finding work that requires a regular 9-5 trip to the office:
· Examine your knowledge, skills, interests, and education to see which jobs are a good fit for what you have to offer.
· Limit your search to professions that pique your interest and provide benefits that meet your requirements.
· Instead of attempting to be hired by a company that provides that job for some, you could start your own business or freelance opportunity.
Again, even if you want to be an office worker or a digital nomad, you'll need a job or a source of income that will allow you to live that lifestyle and work in that environment.
Now, I'm hoping you've made up your mind about becoming a digital nomad. It's time to give you some advice on living as a digital nomad.
Digital Nomad Advice from a Digital Nomad!
I've been a digital nomad for a few years and have gained some experience in the field. Here are some pointers to help you achieve and maintain this lifestyle.
Prepare all of your work before embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
Contrary to popular belief, you should not simply quit your job and become a digital nomad. While it may be tempting to throw caution to the wind and dive headfirst into this new and exciting experience, it is far wiser to start before you leave.
Typically, it takes several months for a company to begin earning money (and blogs can take years). Unless you have a lot of money to live on, I wouldn't recommend starting your new digital nomad career while abroad. Do it at home first. Create a client list so that you can start making money the moment you leave. That way, you won't be stressed out when you try to start a business and travel abroad at the same time.
