The Digital Nomad Reality Check

A lot of new instagram influencers have come up post covid and everyone of them seem to be living a very cool and balanced life. Is the digital nomad lifestyle as glamorous as social media makes it seem? What are the hidden challenges of working while constantly traveling?

Hi all digital nomads. I was wondering for all the people who are doing it internationally how has the experience been. I'm strongly considering it and wondering how to keep up with work / tips for making it work

If yes, how are you living your life exactly? I aspire to be one, looking for motivation and reality check.

Hey guys, Wanted to know your opinions and if someone has walked similar path before. I am in infrastructure engineering domain, want to transition into core backend with full stack. I have roamed around abroad and found really great quality of life - 1. Food quality is damn good! 2. Spending power when you travel with that currency to other parts of the world 3. Disciplined 4. Power of people, where the rules are same for all. You are just as powerful or weak as a politician in regards to upholding the law. I like these concepts and want to explore living abroad, learning cultures, traditions and people. I was thinking of getting into a Europe based company(understand the pay would be less but I get to roam EU countries with better work life balance) for my backend role and leave my current job to prepare for it as my entire day is sucked off by this current high paying job and it's not fun anymore Thoughts? Tldr - Not happy with my current life sucking role at startup. Have experienced better life abroad as a tourist. Want to switch to a job abroad and experience customs, traditions, people, culture, languages!

My salary is 2.5L per month. Some side hustles included then it becomes 3L. Which country would be same as Bangalore in terms of Cost of living?

So I have been looking for remote opportunities so that I can invest more (No rent), focus on health (less travel time more gym time), and travel (planning 2 international trips this year). For folks working remotely, please share your advice on how I can achieve this and if you guys have any suggestions for any of these topics, I am open for conversation. Thanks.

Everyone said travel would spark creativity and lead to my next venture. Instead, I'm more confused than ever and feeling the pressure to jump back into a traditional job. Has anyone else taken a big career break that didn't pay off as expected? How did you reframe the experience?

I have been on a permanent wfh role since covid. Yes, been 2+ years since I stepped into an office. I stay alone and have little expenses but also 0 social life. Friends are all spread out. Not on any dating app because its exhausting. Can someone just talk about any impacts on their personal life from work life? Does anyone here feel a void too? I’d love to connect.
