Peter and Katherine are experienced digital nomads, with a collective 5 years on the road. They’ve traveled to over 30 countries on 5 continents while maintaining their jobs. They co-authored this book remotely while traveling separately around SE Asia.
This is the book we wish we had read a few years ago. We had jobs, we had dreams, and we had travel experience - but we didn’t really know how to go from “normal life” to being a digital nomad. And while there is a lot of information available for people about how to travel or work remotely, it’s hard to know where to start and what will work best for you.
So whether you dream of freedom from your desk, are hoping to become a suitcase entrepreneur, or are just excited to explore the world, you’ll find practical advice and helpful resources in our chapters:
