Make friends. Meet them regularly (in person & online). Keep nomading.

Housing crisis = flocking mindset

Modern Taiwan is like ancient Athens. The tech hub for democratic inventions. That's why I love to see how, this time, they inspire Germans. The goal is to introduce open-source innovations for the public. Much like the Gov Zero (g0v) did that in Taiwan.

Why do quick friendships feel hollow? Because there's no such thing as a quick friendship. We may feel kinship, be intrigued, and even spend the best evening with a newly met person. But real friendship needs time and repetition.

One cable to rule them all. After 2 years of testing across continents, the Rolling Square inCharge XL 6-in-1 still surprises me. Charges everything from MacBooks (100W!) to rechargeable AA batteries to old PS4 controllers.

The medieval monks were in many ways similar to digital nomads. They were able to travel on long pilgrimages, visiting new countries, learning languages while carrying small bags. What kept them going was the support of strong community. Foster your nomad community, as they are your support.
