The BBC neglected to include this statistic from the report they referenced.
“Digital Nomads Among the Most Satisfied with their Work and Income Consistent with prior years, digital nomads are among the workers most satisfied with their work and lifestyle.”
It's only really a viable option if you're young and don't really care about your work (or are rich).
It's one thing to be a tourist, another to not have a place where you can adult properly
Even crazier are the "van life" people. It really sucks having no place to call home.
This is further accelerated once you know how unrealistic the keeping the sand, brightness, humidity, heat out of your equipment and chasing dodgy internet connections makes something’s much harder.
I got to travel like this a bit long before it was called digital nomading . All I remember is the naps I got to take on some of those beaches
What is adulting properly? Why is crazy to have a different way of life?
It works for me but there is no “one true way” to live a life. You do you and find your happiness.
