Key Takeaways
- Digital nomads should consider starting their journey in a place where there’s already a strong community of other nomads. This makes the transition easier and helps you to find like-minded people with whom you can connect. Some popular cities for digital nomads include Bali, Chiang Mai, Bangkok, and Mexico City.
- Starting and running businesses is the best way to learn about entrepreneurship.
- Having a stable income gives you the freedom to explore other opportunities. Building an initial stable business gives you the confidence to take your business to the next level.
- Short-term stays can be emotionally draining.
- Returning to a familiar city can be nice after being in many new places.
