Digital Nomad Lifestyle has changed the way some people live, work and travel around the world. I’ve been fortunate to live this lifestyle since 2009. Here are my top 10 hacks and resources to help you slay this lifestyle :

  1. Find flights the airlines don’t want you to see with Skiplagged.
  2. Stay in wonderful places by house sitting and caring for cute pets using Trusted Housesitters.
  3. Find out where and how to hitchhike and other ways of extremely cheap transport using Hitchwiki.
  4. Stay with locals and meet interesting travelers on Couchsurfing.
  5. Volunteer at organic farms, homestays, ranches, lodges, backpackers hostels and sailing boats using HelpX.
  6. Join mailing list of low cost airlines to get flight deals in your inbox.
  7. Find out where all in the world you can travel to on VOA or eVisa at this wikipedia page.
  8. Plan trips with other digital nomads or find a workstay to live, work & play together using WorkStays.
  9. Read anonymous Nomad Stories from fellow nomads to get inspired and learn the truth of nomad lifestyle.
  10. Use Global Nomads to ask any question you have about digital nomad life and get an answer pronto.

I’ve been nomading around for more than a decade traveling and working from 90+ countries and I’m hosting a two week remote bootcamp for aspiring digital nomads. Learn A to Z of digital nomad lifestyle by applying here.
