Digital nomad
A digital nomad is someone who works remotely while traveling between different locations. Their workspace typically consists of a PC and portable Wi-Fi. The rise of remote work, the availability of co-working spaces, and alternative accommodations like vacation rentals have made this lifestyle popular.
Digital nomads choose destinations with welcoming communities, low costs of living, and reliable internet. Many countries, including Abu Dhabi, Brazil, Japan, and Spain, now offer digital nomad visas. The visas usually last one to two years and can be renewed for up to five years, depending on the country.
Many hotels and hostels now cater to digital nomads by offering discounts for extended stays, workspaces, and high-speed internet.
The digital nomad lifestyle is similar to workations and bleisure. However, nomads often travel for extended periods, sometimes living in different countries for months.
