Happy to meet all of you! Iām Sara, from Vermont USA.
I am the breadwinner in my digital nomad family and we are slowly moving through Mexico, Central and South America over the next year. We are only 3 months in, so weāre still working out the kinks 
I work as a fundraiser for a U.S.-based advocacy organization, Free Press (www.freepress.net), which fights for Net Neutrality and our online rights, plus free speech, press freedom and quality journalism. They are awesome and let me work remotely for at least a year.
Right now, weāre in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, which is an awesome city for digital nomads! Very laid back, with amazing food and right now the weather is perfect!

Hello Thomas.
IĀ“m Joaquim from 
actually living in Goiania (which is in the center of the country); in the last 35 years lived in Rio de Janeiro.
I have Mechanical Engineering graduation and MBA in Oil & Gas Business and to not let the soul empty with pragmatism, studied General Philosophy.
I am reading at the moment books related to AGI - Artificial General Intelligence - from Ben Goertzel (The End of the Beginning and The AGI Revolution).
I am not a nomad at the moment but this is a dream to come true in some moment in my life.

Hi,
My name is Maxim.
Iām originally from Russia 
where weather is always cold 
and vodka is always free 
Tried to settle in a different country in 2010 when I moved to 
to 
and 
4 year later Iāve realised that settling in one place is not my cup of tea and started moving about again.
My favourite places in the world so far is Bali, Ubud 
Berlin. Germany 
Weird things about me - software developer by trade - transitioned to a full time code mentor in an online bootcamp. Also known by some people as co-founder of JoyGasm 
Addicted to ecstatic dance 
and weird spiritual things 
Books Iād recommend:
Sex Rules!: Astonishing Sex Roles from Around the World to get yourself out of your comfort zone.
Bored And Brilliant to recognise our addiction to tech.
Stealing Fire to blow your mind with whatās possibilities.
Currently, 
in Moscow but heading to 
dessert to dance this New Year.

Hola hola .
Iām Vicente, from Chile. I have been 3-4 years traveling, being my last trip the longest (almost 2 years without being home).
Now Iām currently thinking in having 2-4 temporal bases and just rotate. I feel I kinda lost the travel bug 
a bit, but I still love changing place every few months (and escaping the cold 
). Next year Iāll do my 89 days in Tokyo for the 4th year in a row. Probably then some Berlin and Kiev and then back to Chile (plus some trips in between). I just arrived to Santiago and will probably stay until New years.
Lately Iām doing digital marketing remotely for a company and working on a SaaS side project with a friend.
I think I met Thomas inā¦ Malaysia 2013? Good to see you doing this!

Hey there guys!!
Iām Trevor - not so much into nomadiness yet, but being here, quite sure Iāll be one very soon! Haha 
Currently working in Marketing & Business Dev at a very boring job - so planning to shift to something a bit more fun, something likeā¦Travel or Food or Photography - related.
Favorite places, well, Iāll have to include Budapest, Bologna and Vienna.
Not much into Podcasts and Books yet, but I will recommend on a favorite quote:
ā"If you really want to make a friend, go to someoneās house and eat with himā¦the people who give you their food give you their heart." ā Cesar Chavez

Hi everyone!

Love skiing, hiking and kitesurfing/skiing 
Iām Co-founder & CEO of appear.in, and weāre trying to make it easier for people to work and travel at the same time, by providing awesome video collaboration. Our team can work from wherever they want, and we have four permanent remote employees. We try to share our experience with working remotely and some of the learnings from research on our customers at blog.appear.in. If you have a cool story to share, or tips for how to make a remote lifestyle work, we would love to have guest bloggers!
Iāve also recently started doing a podcast about remote life at remotivationpodcast.com - poke me if you have a suggestion for a cool topic/interviewee!

Hello everyone! 
My name is Ivan-Lazar and Iām from a lovely place called Croatia, I lived in 6 different countries over the last 7 years so I donāt know where I belong - hopefully I find myself in this community?
Iām a lot into outdoors so if any one of you wants to catch a cheap flight and do something (at the moment around Europe) Iāll be interested! 
At the moment I am searching for a way to have a more stable income and a good life with it (PhD in [fiber-]optics, not such a great area for remote work), designing optical systems for one guy and helping my father maintain his small publishing company. Last year I was just traveling, many places from Cambodia to Cuba, and learning exotic languages like Arabic 
(didnāt go that well in the endā¦!). 
Always up for new ventures, both travel-wise and business wise, so please donāt hesitate to hit me up if youāre up to something, you need help, discussion or a good company
Iām a lot into languages, cultures, countries, religions, food,philosophy, historyā¦ you will probably end up talking about some of these subjects with me, if we get a chance to meet
I love being with people, having a good laugh, making everyone feel good - not into drugs, hook-ups or new-ageism so from that side Iām proudly boring 
Favourite places? Seriously people, there are so manyā¦!
Sydney, Australia
Calanques de Marseille, France 
Northern Velebit national park, Croatia 
Cinque terre and Alpe Apuane, Italy 
Mount Cook, New Zealand 
Red Sea (Egypt, Israel, Jordan)
ā¦
Cheers everyone!

Hi there ladies and gentlemen,
I am Gustaf from 
I like stuff that includes standing on boards utilizing different types of surfaces.
I used to travel full time, but since a couple of years I live in Bangkok where I run a tech team for our two businesses (Pendata and Seedooh) and a couple of external clients. I still travel 4-6 months of the year, but tend to go back more and more to the same places that I like, Australia (where my business partners are from), Southern Europe in the summer and Bali to mention a few.
As business is not taking all my time anymore I spend more time learning languages. Currently focus is on Thai and even if I would be better than most foreigners on it, I am not really properly conversational yet. I want to put some serious time into Spanish before Spain again next summer as well.
I was invited a good while back, but havenāt gotten the 
out to sign up until now, but here I am! I am very interested in sovereignty and after having business and residency in place I am looking towards the process of a second passport going forward.
Cheers

Welcome Ingrid. Very nice to have you here
Hi everyone. My name is Keisha from Trinidad & Tobago, West Indies.
I am very much in the early stages, as I am currently building a location-independent career in social media marketing. My aim is to start traveling with my partner by 2018.
So I guess I have joined this community so that I can learn all I can and connected with like-minded individuals.
Places I would like to visit include New York, Ireland, Scotland, Bali, Japan, Australia and Costa Rica. I am a heavy-duty podcast listener. I recommend anything from Rainmaker network.
That is about it for now. I look forward to announcing my first trip to you all next year!

Hi there,
Iām Amadeus, from Poland. I am running a marketplace for cleaning services in Germany, plus doing occasional freelance web development jobs. In the company that I am co-running, I am responsible for all technical aspects (website, system, reporting), online marketing and finance. Our company is registered in Estonia, so I also know a little bit about E-Residency (weāre running it since July 2016).
Currently (both for work and for fun) I am mostly into web development, in particular, 'Laravel stack, (Laravel + Vue.js). I planned to start the ādigital nomadā life for years, and finally started it in August this year. Right now, I am located in Phoenix, AZ, heading to Berlin in January and Lisbon in February.
My favorite podcast lately is ā20 percent timeā. When I donāt work, I am probably on a very long or hike in the countryside.
