Digital Nomads

My partner and I both work remote and we keep running into the same issue. We need two separate rooms so we can be on calls at the same time. Studios don’t work. Big open lofts don’t work. Even some “1 bedroom” places don’t really work if the living area is basically the same...

Currently at JFK staring at like 20 outlets at this gate and not a single one actually holds a charger. Every plug is so loose that if you even look at it wrong, it falls out. I’m literally bracing my power brick against the wall with my foot just to keep it charging. Who...

Hi everyone, I’ve been traveling around Southeast Asia for the past few months and started the trip with almost 30 kg of luggage. Pretty quickly I realized that moving around with that much stuff is exhausting. My back is constantly hurting and I’m also spending a lot on checked...

Applied to renew my Malaysia digital nomad visa about 4 months before it was set to expire, thinking that would be plenty of time. Instead, just 5 days before the visa expired, MDEC emailed saying they couldn’t process the renewal for at least another 6–8 weeks and that I needed...

Visited Buenos Aires a few years ago and really enjoyed the city, but I imagine things have changed quite a bit since then. Curious how things are now, especially in terms of prices and the general atmosphere around the city. Anyone who has been there recently able to share how...

I usually travel with two laptops, one personal and one for work. Never had a problem anywhere. Recently saw a post about someone having issues in Jakarta because they declared a laptop as a working device and customs made a big deal out of it. Sounded like it was mostly their...

Saw a warning from someone who had a pretty rough experience trying to enter Belize using those “onward ticket” services. They bought reservations from DummyTicket and OnwardTicket to show proof of onward travel, but both bookings were apparently issued through United Airlines...

Just landed a fully remote job. US citizen, have to work US hours. Salary is $75k pre tax, around $50k after tax. I hate cold weather and prefer walkable, bike friendly cities with solid public transport. Drawn to Southern Europe, Balkans, Argentina, Brazil, places like that....

Flying into Madrid from South America, resting a couple days, then looking to base somewhere in Spain for May. Budget is around €500 for a private room on Airbnb (shared kitchen/bathroom is fine). After that I’d try to arrange something direct with an owner. What I’m looking...

Been thinking about the digital nomad lifestyle and wondering where you can realistically live long term on $1,500–$2,000 per month without having to constantly leave the country for visa resets. By “live” I mean something more stable than tourist hopping. Ideally places where...

I’m from Morocco and this is my first stable remote income at this level. I want to be smart about where to live, how taxes would work, and the best way to receive payments with minimal fees. From what I’ve researched so far (based on $2k/month): Georgia seems attractive with...

I’m mid 20s and have to hoard PTO just to take one full week off. Meanwhile I see people spending 3–4 weeks in Thailand, Bali, Medellin and I’m like… how? I get that some countries have better vacation policies, but I’m mostly talking about Americans. Are people quitting jobs?...
