How to travel the world full-time as a digital nomad

 



It's the dream for many, but it can seem like a daunting task. I've tried and failed several times, but now I'm doing it. Let me share
with you how to travel the world full-time as a digital nomad.

If you want to know how to travel the world full-time while living the digital nomad lifestyle, you're not alone. I asked that question for years, and now it's the main question people ask me. 

I quit my job in a UK High School in January 2018. To begin with, I was earning less than $50 per month as a freelancer. Now I have my own Virtual Assistant business and I'm really enjoying the nomad lifestyle.

By sharing what I learned I hope to encourage more people to take the leap.

Here's the truth:

Taking the step from traveling for pleasure to becoming a professional nomad. isn't easy. In recent years an entire industry's popped up around it. There are thousands of online courses all promising to give you the financial freedom to wander the globe. Honestly, most of them are junk. I know because I paid for lots of them.

They sell the dream, and who doesn't want the dream? Sitting on a beach with your laptop, the cash rolling in as you enjoy another cocktail. Where do they plug these laptops in to recharge them? How do they stop them from overheating in that baking sun? Have you ever tried to get sand out of a keyboard?

These are just some of the questions you should be asking when someone pitches you that dream.

In honesty, being a digital nomad is a full-time job. True, your 'office' may be prettier than most and you decide your own working hours, but you still need to grind away. Your success or failure is completely on your own shoulders.

Before you make any decisions, you should be completely truthful with yourself:

  • Are you self-motivated?
  • Are you a creative thinker?
  • Do you enjoy studying and constantly developing your skills?
  • Are you determined?

These are all qualities you'll need to succeed as a digital nomad and travel the world full-time. If you have these qualities and a plan, your journey will be much easier.
