What do you do for work as a digital nomad?

Yes i have planned it actually! I unfortunately haven’t been able to because i still haven’t been making enough for me to feel comfortable enough to make the leap even to a country with a lower COL, because i also have to pay large student loans at the same time 🥲

Yes i am going to! I need money though 😂 so i think the best option for me is to get a stable job and keep working on finding a remote one on the side + freelancing (:

Hey girl social media manager here 🙋‍♀️ it’s probably not you, engagement is at an all time low during the holiday season due to paid media being at it’s yearly peak and users spending less time on the app. Keep posting, it should start to improve starting in January (:

5-10 hours 😫 the dream! Maybe i won’t cross off learning JavaScript just yet lol

I hope so too - i really hope i didn’t miss my nomadic chance haha.

Oh wow that’s so impressive congrats! What area of web dev are you in?

I feel like if you are an entrepreneur in any field you’ll be ok because you’ll be the one handing off the project to the client, but corporate workers are more expendable and teams can be downsized because of ai automation.

I’m just wondering i don’t want to freelance, I’d rather have a job

That’s really nice to hear! I actually really wanted to get into web development to begin with, but ended up switching my learning path after knowing so many people struggling to get a job.

That being said do you think that corporate job opportunities in web dev will shrink as AI develops? Or no

Not to be bleak just wondering if anyone has been thinking similar thoughts!

Yes! I meet so many backpackers that don’t budget for experiences and end up missing out on some of the best things to do in the country.

Haha for sure! Need healthy food.

This was one of the most critical moments of my life that made me realize how much better life feels when you let go, and go with the flow.

Was i pissed that i had to replace all my clothes and shoes? For sure. Was i going to let that ruin amazing opportunities and the rest of my trip? Hell no.

Ya everyone I’ve talked to said it’s been really tough for them lately; it’s the constant need to search for new clients that really gets to me, i can never feel financially stable and safe to relax

This is the best! Kudos to you that’s the perfect set up. I’d love to do that someday, I’m hoping to save up some money soon to get my Italian citizenship through jure sanguinis, and then buy a house there when i can to do the same as you (:
