This month we interviewed more temporary Chiang Mai residents – Christy and Kali from Technosyncratic. They run their web development business as they travel whether that’s from an RV around the US, a house sit in London or an apartment in Thailand.
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?
This month’s Nomadic Interview is with fellow temporary Chiang Mai resident Shannon who shares her travel stories, cultural insights and veggie food explorations on A Little Adrift. Like many people (us included) a year of travelling wasn’t enough and her nomadic life has now become permanent.
