Keep reading for our top tips for transitioning to a digital nomad.
1. Don’t Wait
If you want to live the nomadic lifestyle and you are already working from home then why wait? Waiting for the “perfect time” might have you waiting for years and you might never end up living out this dream.
The longer you wait the harder it becomes to leave your hometown. It will become easier and easier to find excuses for why you should settle and stay put.
2. Get Prepped
Once you make the decision to go for it, you will have to figure out the logistics about what to do with your vehicle and current home. If you own your home you have to figure out whether you want to rent it or sell it.
Another decision you will have to make is whether you want to put everything in storage or you want to sell or donate everything to have less stuff to worry about. Honestly, the fewer things you own when you live the nomadic lifestyle the easier it will be because you won’t have to worry about a bunch of material things that you are not really using.
3. Decide How You Want to Travel
A very important decision is where you will lay down at night. There are plenty of options out there such as Airbnb, buying an RV to travel in, couch surfing, hotel hopping, house sitting, etc.
The best way to decide is to figure out what is important to you. Would you rather have your own bed and bathroom? Do you mind staying in different beds and homes?
Is living out of a bag possible for you? Do you have pets that you will be traveling with? Would you prefer to have your own kitchen to cook in or would a meal prep service such as La Comida MTL suffice?
Answering these questions will make it easier to decide what kind of accommodations you will personally need.
Make a list of what you truly want and don’t want to help make this decision easier.
