Backing up your data is important for everyone in the digital age, but for a digital nomad it’s essential. We travel with all our possessions and our mobile office in a carry-on backpack and there is always the chance that we could lose it all. We don’t live in constant fear of this happening but it’s best to be prepared for the worst, as our livelihood depends on it.
We shared our favourite blog posts for digital nomads and now here are the books that we recommend if you aspire to or are currently pursuing a digital nomad or location independent lifestyle.
When writing up our list of 33 Useful Resources for Digital Nomads I realised that some of the most useful sources of information when researching places to travel, work and live around the world are other bloggers. The information is up to date and other digital nomads have similar concerns as us. Is it easy to find affordable accommodation? How’s the WiFi? How much does it cost to live there?
Technology makes our digital nomad life possible. Without it we wouldn’t have been able to spend the last 18 months travelling around the world while running a web design and development business.
These are the products and resources that we use to live and work from anywhere in the world. They aren’t all essential but they do make our lives a lot easier.
Jodi Ettenberg left behind a successful career as a lawyer to eat her way around the world. Her round the world trip never stopped and over three years later she is still going. We had the pleasure to meet Jodi at the TBEX travel bloggers conference, and like everyone there were instantly charmed by her. Her blog Legal Nomads features beautifully written and informative posts, stunning photos, and most importantly lots of food tips.
