Hey there. 
Iām Artyom (or Artjom, depends on language).
Iām an Android developer for last 6 years. Itās the first profession thatgot me for so long, Iām really happy about that. Itās hard though, Iām not sure what to do with that part yet.
Iām not a real nomad, actually. I just havenāt āhomeā right now, and I fell in love with travellingā¦ so, here I am.
Iām in a āsearching and choosingā mode for 2 years right now. And I work remotely for around 4 years, itās quite convenient (sometimes quite lonely)
Iām living in Serbia for some time, quite lovely country.
My favorite place for travelling is Japan so far. It was my dream until this April. Now itās my dream to go there more often. 
The most social things I love are board games (even online theyāre a lot of fun) and popular-science lectures.
Nice to meet yāall, thank you for having me.

Hi Everyone, Al here, I am a 59 year old who has been trying to leave the UK rat race for many years.
My wife and I pretty much have our minds on buying a small place in Alberta Canada, and living there 6 months per year as is currently allowed.
Then thinking of travelling in Europe or indeed elsewhere for 3 months per year and spending the remaining time in the UK.
We intend to finance this by renting our two homes out whilst we arent living in them, and using some savings.
My wife is a VA and i have just started an online coaching business to try and earn some extra revenue.
I am a very keen paraglider and snowboarder whenever i get chance.
I have joined Nomad Gate to learn what questions i need to ask to facilitate mine and my wifes next adventure in this life and to pass on as many gems of wisdom as I can.
Top tipā¦ really believe and it will really happen!
Kindest of regards to you all.
Al

I am nomadic by nature and always ready to travel and immerse in new cultures meeting new people.
Looking forward to collaborate with you on this site 
Hello!
My name is Duarte and I was born and raised in Lisbon. 
For the past years, I have been dedicated to real estate. My grandfather was a civil engineer; my brother is an architect; of course, I also had to be involved with this amazing sector.
I am an advisor to real estate developers in Portugal at Sothebyās International Realty. I help them acquire, design and market each project.
How can I help you?
If you are trying to understand how the market works here, I can briefly explain the trends, each player and their motivations and goals;
If you are looking into investing in a property, I know 99% of the new construction projects available in the market (I also have a team of +200 brokers who can support you if you prefer to buy something ready);

Hi, Iām Cannon.
Iām a motion designer/2D animator from the Midwest US. Graduating from college soon and looking to try my hand at a nomadic lifestyle. Iāve backpacked and stayed with families multiple times throughout Europe, and I really loved it. I work remotely most of the time, so Iām hoping that this site can help me figure stuff out and make the switch
Whenever I begin traveling, my first stop will be SEA!

Hi I am new here. Thank you for accepting me to this group. I have a question about my situation. Iam an EU citizen. I arrived in Portugal at the 4th week of August 2020 and stayed for less than 183 days. I got a NIF in Dec 2020 because i wanted to buy a house. The house purchase did not push through and i went out of Portugal. I did a declaration to quit the territory. In september 2024 i received a letter from financa that i have yet to do my tax declaration. In my grand surprise 
. I was not resident so why do i have to pay a tax on added value from my investment money. I gathered all the document proofing that i did not violate any regulations and proofing that i was not resident. Yesterday I received a letter from financa containing the huga amount of money to pay as a added value taxes which amount i did not earn. Anybody has the same experience? Thank you
