Digital nomadism refers to a lifestyle where individuals work remotely while traveling, prioritizing mobility and flexibility over traditional career paths and permanent residency.

This lifestyle has been enabled by advancements in IT technologies and the normalization of remote work, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Countries such as Portugal, Mexico, Indonesia, and Iceland offer specific digital nomad visas, allowing extended stays with income requirements and varying durations.

Vietnam, while not offering a dedicated digital nomad visa, provides e-visas for up to 90 days and is popular for its low cost of living and excellent wireless access.

South American countries are also attractive to digital nomads due to visa-free entry and the ease of extending residence permits.

Digital nomads often work in fields such as programming, graphic design, writing, translation, and project management, leveraging remote-friendly professions.

Essential tools for digital nomads include high-speed internet, portable technology, mobile hotspots, and multi-currency debit cards to manage financial transactions.

While the lifestyle offers flexibility and opportunities for geo-arbitrage, frequent relocations can be stressful and lead to unpredictable expenses.

Digital nomads must also navigate tax regulations, adapt to new cultures, and ensure access to healthcare, often requiring international health insurance.

Establishing routines, creating designated workspaces, and managing time effectively are critical for maintaining productivity and avoiding burnout.

Critics argue that digital nomadism can contribute to gentrification and displacement in local communities, as businesses adapt to cater to foreign workers.

Russian IT specialists are increasingly relocating to South America due to political and economic challenges in Russia, forming a technological hub in the region.

In recent years, the global media began to vigorously promote "travel living", translated from English - travel-life.
Its supporters are called digital nomads, or digital nomads.
They are not attached to the place of residence and work and are ready to trade comfort, stability and career prospects for life in continuous motion.
In the US alone, this philosophy is shared by 22 million people, or one in 15 Americans, in the world – 35 million, and by 2030, the number of digital nomads on the planet is projected to grow to one billion people.
Experts believe that this is the way to form a “seamless ” world with a“ connected person ” without roots.

Down with office stress
Video of the day
The first digital nomad was an American writer and programmer.
In 1983, he set off on a computerized bike and completed it on a yacht in 2021.
The revival of the ancient nomadic way of life in the 21st century has become possible thanks to the Internet and IT technologies, and the pandemic of the covid with a remote format of work has spurred it.
By 2030, the number of digital nomads could reach a billion people.
What kind of people are these?
The first group is digital.
Programmers, project managers, graphic designers, journalists, writers, lawyers, translators, analysts, testers, copywriters, video editors, product managers.
Six months in the Maldives, three months in Barbados or the United Arab Emirates, where the world ’ s fastest mobile Internet.
The second is adventurers and wanderers.
The third is mortgages, for which loan payments are more expensive than permanent tourism and being in cheap areas of the world.
The philosophy of digital nomads is to untie themselves from their place of birth and one job.
Choose countries where the best climate, cheaper food, where there are no toxic offices, civil duties, but only the right to live in pleasure.
Digital nomads consider themselves the chosen ones of fate, because, in their opinion, they make the free choice of a free person.
Life in motion, they argue, is not bliss, but the norm.
Their favorite slogan is “The values of minimalism make us happy. ”
Nature, freedom, unprocessed food, physical activity...
A lot is said about this on their profile sites.
Anxiety and desire to change places
Hunting for a change of places is a problem of motives, and they are different, correspondent member, philosopher, chief researcher of the Institute of Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences Jean Toshchenko told the “Parliamentary newspaper ”.
Someone just has the opportunity to choose the best conditions of life and work.
Others have the pressure of economic circumstances.
This is facilitated by the growing class of precariat (people working in low-paid and unstable jobs without social guarantees - sick leave, vacation, with a reduced salary).
The transition from permanent to part-time, temporary, part-time employment makes it easier for such people to get out of place and go wherever they look.
Another category is those who, in principle, do not care about the content of the work, says the scientist.
They expect to find something to do everywhere.
From here the ease of lifting.
Finally, there are those who choose a way of life where civil obligations do not prevail over them.
An expert from the United States John Peters in a sensational article “Exile, Nomadism and the Diaspora ” called the opposition of nomad and state as the key idea of the movement.
Many travelers begin with the term “climate emigration ”, but constant mobility erases the boundaries of cultural and national identity.
As a result, the concept of homeland is also being rethought, and this is already marginality, he concludes.
A typical portrait of a digital nomad, according to the Nomad List survey, is a minimalist with a laptop, a backpack, a bachelor ’ s degree, a passport and a cup of coffee.
Lives in one place for an average of 70 days.
At the heart of the mentality is anti-materialism and contentment with small things.
The most attractive side of travel is cheapness, according to one of the profile sites.
Nomadism saves a lot of money because the costs of maintaining the property, maintaining the car, parking, winter clothes disappear.
It is fascinating and good for health.
The main cost item is renting a roof over your head and food.
Geo-arbitrage helps to live better and cheaper – the use of price differences between countries.
Peace in your pocket and nothing of your own
Some researchers call traveling a new socio-economic model.
It echoes the program slogans of the “great reset ” of the world proclaimed at the Davos Economic Forum.
According to it, the preservation of the planet in the interests of future generations requires tightening the belts of the living, limiting economic growth and reducing consumption.
The projected image of the future assumes that a person will be available to the whole world, a lot of services, but at the same time he will not have anything of his own.
Globalizers argue that property and binding to a permanent place of residence burden and encroach on the personal freedoms of citizens.
Why buy a house when you can rent it?
Why a personal car when there is carsharing?
Why save money when you can have a basic guaranteed income?
Why spend money on heating an apartment, if you can go to the warm lands for the winter?
When a person has no stake or yard, it is especially easy.
Modern nomads often call themselves citizens of the world.
The nomad is always online, and it is more convenient for him to communicate even with friends online, rather than offline.
Therefore, some experts have given it the definition of “connected person ”.
The unwritten motto of digital nomads: movement is everything, goal is nothing.
There are 300 people in the world who have visited all 196 countries of the world (including unrecognized territories).
Among them are Australian Rach and Slovak Marty.
The women described the adventures of the 15-year-old circumnavigation in the blog “Very Hungry Nomads ”.
They set out to inspire the women of the world to live without office stress, work on the beach, expand horizons and embrace new thinking.
Travelers sold out all the property and lived with luggage from two backpacks of hand luggage.
The focus of their project was food.
Odyssey cost 274 thousand dollars.
Her conclusion: the most delicious food is in Ethiopia, Afghanistan and Uzbek farmers.
The number of nomadism activists in Russia is also increasing.
For example, ethnologist Mikhail Zarubin traveled to 193 countries for 10 years and wrote a book for children “Tales of Young Travelers ”.
Four years more spent on the circumnavigation of his friend, the photographer.
150 hotels annually - the norm for Lisa and Vitalik, whose journey lasts 12 years.
Many other travel bloggers share their impressions on the website travcave.ru.
Traffic infrastructure
The digital nomad relies on infrastructure.
A digital nomad visa allows individuals who earn an income of at least $2,000 from a foreign jurisdiction to legally stay in the country longer than tourists.
Its price in Brazil is 72 dollars, in Greece - 75, Costa Rica - 100, Argentina - from 120 to 240, in Bermuda - 260, in the Bahamas and in the UAE - a thousand dollars.
Validity from 180 days to 10 years.
In countries where there is no such visa, nomads often live on tourist and even student, and the authorities turn a blind eye to this.
The elements of infrastructure are also coworking and coliving (common spaces where you can live and work with like-minded people).
The number of the first, according to forecasts, by 2025 will reach 26 thousand, and the second annually grows by a third.
In Russia, too, there is a coliving - "Station Smena".
It provides, according to the presentation, a unique opportunity to combine work and party.
Remotely you can work from home, public libraries, cafes - if only there was an Internet and a laptop.
The wealthier ones move around in offices on wheels.
However, the vans at home with a table, a lot of sockets, chargers and a background for conferences are like a luxury German crossover.
The system of hubs for nomads is characterized by a favorable climate, high-speed Internet, an easy visa regime and a low cost of living.
The most attractive locations are Chiang Mai (Thailand) and Bali (Indonesia), in Europe - Lisbon, Gran Canaria and the island of Madeira, in America - Medellin, Mexico City and Buenos Aires.
If the money runs out, nomads can spend the night in churches for free, in extreme cases - in a tent, especially since they do not tend to cold lands.
Someone on occasion earns remote trade, hand-made, bartenders, guides, DJs and VJs, nurses, teachers and what God will send.
As befits a philosopher, Jean Toshchenko is not surprised:
“The world is entering an era of great migration of peoples, similar to the one that took place 15 centuries ago.
The process of global migration is driven by economic, political and climatic factors.
And this general mobility affects all of humanity, making it dynamic. ”
The philosophy of individualism
And if everyone wants to live on an eternal journey, who will remain in their native country and will improve it?
Is there a balance between personal freedom and civic responsibility?
Is not the sense of patriotism atrophied, for example, among the digital class, part of which has amicably rushed outside Russia?
The balance between freedom and responsibility was sought by Voltaire and Belinsky.
They are looking for it and will be looking for it at all times, ” the chairman of the Council for the Development of the Digital Economy evasively replied to the Parliamentary Newspaper.
First Deputy Chairman of the Committee for Tourism and Tourism Development Nikolai Valuev did not hide skepticism from our publication:
“No matter what you dream and want, people will always be tied by a bunch of circumstances to the place of residence.
Work, habit, property, kinship and social ties, so these cosmopolitans will always be in the region of statistical error. ”
Comparing digital nomads, immigrants and relocants is incorrect, said the development director of VTsIOM Consulting.
The concept of “digital-nomadism ” develops a philosophy of individualism, he told“ Parlamentskaya Gazeta ”.
Its values: freedom to choose life goals, ways and places of work, the desire for openness of information, intolerance of discrimination and the conditional “seamless ” of the world.
At the same time, nomads, earning in their country, spend money in a foreign country.
How should this state be treated?
Why in the US with a population of 330 million people, Trump in his election program promises to introduce maternity capital for a new baby boom?
"Any government wants its citizens to work at home and develop the domestic economy," Yermolaev said. - The generation of the first baby boom is close to retirement age, which increases the burden on social infrastructure and reduces the number of able-bodied people.
And the digital nomad community in the US is growing.
According to MBO Partners, there are 16.9 million, and according to Nomand List, 22 million.
If the trend continues, the country ’ s economy will face a serious challenge in the coming years. ”
In Russia, according to Nomad List, digital nomads are still relatively few - 2.3 million.
And yet they should be taken seriously, urges the dean of the Faculty of Economics.
As a rule, nomads do not seek to part with the country, they can continue to work for domestic companies, benefiting the state.
And in order to preserve this human capital, to prevent its possible leakage, an income tax of 13 percent should be saved for this category, the economist believes.
According to the current rules, tax non-residents - people who have been in Russia for less than 183 calendar days for twelve consecutive months - must pay income tax not 13 percent, but 30 percent, besides they are not entitled to tax deductions.
As the head of the State Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Affairs Yaroslav Nilov told our publication, all the necessary regulation in the field of remote employment was developed and fixed in Chapter 49.1 of the Labor Code even during the coronavirus pandemic.
Thanks to this, many workers today work remotely, most of them within the country.
Any changes to the law will also affect them, he explained.
This is usually used in a situation where there is an imbalance of interests of employers and employees.
“If people continue to perform their duties in accordance with labor contracts, taxes and payments are deducted from their income, then why invent something? ” the deputy concluded.

This lifestyle has been enabled by advancements in IT technologies and the normalization of remote work, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Countries such as Portugal, Mexico, Indonesia, and Iceland offer specific digital nomad visas, allowing extended stays with income requirements and varying durations.

International Center Lai Cheng-lin / General Report
In the wake of the pandemic, digital nomad has become the latest form of work, and many people who can “work remotely ” have begun to travel to other countries around the world, taking vacations and working with their computers.
In a survey of digital nomads, three cities in Vietnam are among the top 10 most visited places in the world for digital nomads: Da Nang, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
This is an advertisement, please continue reading.
According to Nomad List, the world ’ s largest database of remote workers, Da Nang, a coastal city in central Vietnam, ranks second behind Tokyo, Japan, with a 109% increase in the digital nomadic population in 2023; Hanoi ranks seventh with a 58% growth rate; and Ho Chi Minh City ranks ninth with a 55% growth rate.
Most Vietnamese cities have excellent wireless access, low cost of living, and beautiful scenery, making them the latest darling of digital nomadic workers around the world.
Of these three cities in Vietnam, Da Nang is considered the third largest city in Vietnam after Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, with free Wi-Fi in the city center, fast internet speeds and beautiful coastline.
An important factor for digital nomads considering a temporary city is the living environment, as well as the cost of living to meet the convenient and comfortable working environment, while the cost of living in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City is quite low.
The average cost of living for a number of nomads in Hanoi is US $1,289 per month (about NT $38,000) and in Ho Chi Minh City US $1,157 per month (about NT $34,000).
Other places on the list are Seoul, South Korea, in third place; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in fourth place; Penang, Malaysia, in fifth place; Montevideo, Uruguay, in sixth place; Manila, Philippines, in eighth place; and Lubjana, Slovenia, in tenth place.
To compile the list, experts at Nomad List ranked the fastest-growing cities for remote workers by analyzing nearly 300,000 registrations in the database over the past two years.
Vietnam, with three cities on the list, does not offer a “digital nomad visa ”, but it offers global travelers from nearly 200 countries the ability to easily apply online for e-visas for up to 90 days, and in Southeast Asia only Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia offer special digital nomad visa programs for foreigners to work remotely if they meet certain requirements.

Named the location of the left from Russia “digital nomads ”
Russian IT specialists are massively moving to the countries of South America.
The reason for the departure was a military conflict.
This is reported by the Financial Times.
Photo by RIA NovostiRIA Novosti
Professor of Columbia University ICESI Vladimir Ruvinsky said that over the period from February to June 2022, hundreds of residents of Russia moved to the states of Central and South America.
It is noted that the Russians chose this macroregion for the reason that a visa is not required to visit many of its countries.
In addition, extending the standard 90-day residence permit is quite easy.
Maxim Artushenko, manager of a startup in the field of e-commerce, said that the reason for moving is also the fact that some businessmen face problems doing business in Russia.
Those who could not open their business in the Russian Federation or were forced to close it, are trying to enter new markets.
His words are confirmed by the manager of the investment company in Dubai.
He said that since the beginning of March 2022, he has received dozens of requests from businessmen from Russia who intend to move their companies to South America.
He believes that a Russian technological hub is gradually being formed in this region.

A Guide for College Students Embracing the Digital Nomad Lifestyle

A digital nomad is someone who works remotely and travels often. Their work doesn’t require them to report to an office or adhere to a strict schedule. Instead, they can work anywhere in the world, doing the job they love.

It’s no wonder this lifestyle is appealing more to college students. They can travel the world while studying and working abroad. That said, being a college student and a digital nomad is a challenge. It’s not like a vacation where all you have to worry about is enjoying yourself.

You have to learn how to balance the fun of traveling with work and school commitments. The following tips will help you do just that.

Understand What the Digital Nomad Lifestyle Will Be Like

You have to understand what the digital nomad lifestyle will be like if you want it to work out. You can assess whether this life is for you, and better prepare for it if you decide that it is.

Here are some critical points to consider about the digital nomad lifestyle:

  • A work-life balance is a must
  • Traveling often can be exhausting
  • You must ensure access to healthcare
  • You need a plan for financial stability
  • You’ll have to adapt to new cultures and languages
  • Knowing visa requirements and other legal requirements is essential
  • You might experience homesickness, especially if you go international
  • Balancing school with work and life in a new place is a big commitment

Dig into these factors and research all you’ll have to do and give up to be a digital nomad. Then, you can make an informed decision about moving forward.

Master Time Management

You’ll have to take your time management up a few notches if you want to be a digital nomad.

It’s one thing to balance life and school. It’s another to balance life, school, traveling, and potentially, work. You must learn how to divide your days so that you pay each of these things the attention they need. In addition, time management will ensure you don’t burn out.

Start with a routine to build some consistency into your days. Wake up at the same time regardless of your schedule and get ready for your days the same way.

You can establish priority tasks the night before, like your classes, if you’re working, and when you’ll study. Set aside time for breaks, meals, and leisure time as well. Building these activities into your schedule will ensure you actually do them.

Attach times to each task and activity. For example, you have classes from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Next, you’ll have lunch from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. After that, you have work from 1:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Then, you’ll study from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., and the rest of the night is yours.

Manage your time wisely and you can achieve everything you set out for each day.

Learn How to Stay Productive

One of the biggest challenges digital nomads run into is staying productive. All of the fun activities you can do when you travel to a new place can be distracting. It might be hard to stay motivated when you’re homesick. Technical and logistical issues can impact your productivity as well.

So, learning how to maintain peak productivity while studying and working on the road is essential.

Adhering to the routine we mentioned above will help keep you focused. Eliminate distractions while working by turning your phone on Do Not Disturb and muting social media apps. Create a designated workspace. You could also incentivize productivity by promising yourself a fun activity after you complete your work.

Secure your tech setup as well to maintain optimal productivity. Make sure you have the basics, like a good laptop set up with the proper work and school software and noise-canceling headphones.

Another crucial tool to have is a mobile hotspot. A hotspot ensures you can connect to the internet wirelessly on your mobile devices from virtually anywhere. This will come in handy when you travel internationally or to places with spotty internet connections. No matter where you are, you can still access your studies and any work you’re doing online.

Equip yourself with the right tools and techniques to stay productive as a digital nomad.

Choose Work That Aligns With Your Studies and Interests

Digital nomads are known to take many different directions with their work. You have options and can easily make a living while studying and traveling abroad. The key is ensuring the work you do doesn’t distract from your education and pull you away from who you are.

You’ll have a much better experience as a digital nomad if you choose work that aligns with your studies and interests. Rather than taking the barista job at the local cafe, work with your school to see if there are any work-study opportunities where you’re traveling.

You can also take the job search into your own hands. Search for job openings before you head to your destination through online job boards. Ask for referrals from fellow students.

Consider fully remote positions as well. There are many work-from-home jobs available that can accommodate a college student’s digital nomad lifestyle, such as being a tutor or a content writer for subjects related to your major.

Whatever work you decide to do, make sure it doesn’t take away from your studies and aligns with who you are and what you want to be.

Conclusion

Many college students are attracted to the digital nomad lifestyle because it allows them to travel freely while studying and working where they want to. As enticing as this life is, being a digital nomad isn’t void of challenges.

Make sure you understand what you’re getting into, master time management, learn to stay productive, and choose work that aligns with your studies and interests to give yourself a real chance at a successful digital nomad life.

What are critical aspects of the digital nomad lifestyle?

While the lifestyle offers flexibility and opportunities for geo-arbitrage, frequent relocations can be stressful and lead to unpredictable expenses.

Content: 24 year old girl working in 20 countries in 5 years sharing 4 financial management tips for being a “digital nomad ”
Personal Value Added 21: 30 2023 / 06 / 10
Share:
Share:
Remote work during the pandemic made home-based work or digital nomad popular, and Canadian schoolgirl Daniella Pashuk became a digital nomad five years ago.
At that time, the new crown had not yet broken out, and only at the age of 19, she entered an online university and began working full-time while traveling.
The term “digital nomads ” refers to people who travel freely while working remotely on the Internet.
They usually have the least material possessions. They work online using computers or smartphones in temporary homes, hotels, cafes, public libraries, shared offices or motorhomes. They often move between different countries and regions, and work as programmers, designers, writers, translators, etc.
“I can go where I want to go and do what I want in different countries.
It changed the trajectory of my life, "she told CNBC.
Pashuk, 24, has traveled to more than 20 countries in five years and is a freelance writer whose monthly income fluctuates.
“My monthly income ranges from $2,500 to $3,500 … Some months I travel as a family nanny, so I don ’ t have to pay any accommodation fees. ”
It also means that she has to plan her finances with extra care, although she can travel and work whenever she wants.
“You have to accept a little bit of unpredictability … each month looks different because you ’ re often in different regions, in different currencies, with different spending, so forecasting is a challenge, ” she says.
Extremes like “spending 600 euros last month and 3,000 euros the next month, ” Pashuk recalls.
To be a digital nomad, she says, it ’ s important to keep your finances in good shape because you have to fund the lifestyle you really want.
She shared four financial tips for being a digital hobbyist with CNBC.
Decide what kind of digital nomad you want to be
Pashuk says that what type of digital nomad you want to be will determine your situation.
The first type is people who change places frequently, going to a new place every one to two weeks.
She was in this state for almost two years at one time, but then stopped doing it because she found it was too stressful for her.
This can quickly become expensive, she said, as there is a big chance of problems with each move, such as high ticket prices, train cancellations and other extra costs.
Now she ’ s a “Slow Digital Nomad ” who stays in one place for at least a month or as long as her visa allows.
Pashuk says this helps the budget because the budget is fixed for months, and you stay in the same place and still spend the same things.
In addition, building an affordable “base camp ” can go a long way, providing some stability.
Currently, Pashuk has a “headquarters ” in Montenegro, but also works in different places:“ I still travel every month, but I have a place to come back. ”
She has to spend at least a certain amount each month, such as paying rent in Montenegro, but it has little impact on the total expenditure.
2. Use the correct debit card
When Pashuk started out as a digital nomad, having a stable and reliable cash flow was a huge challenge.
Her Canadian bank account has been locked because she is constantly changing locations, which the bank thinks is a bit suspicious.
So she was forced to call the bank all the time.
In addition, when you use a Canadian card to withdraw money from a local ATM, the offshore transaction fee is also considerable.
“Sometimes I lose $30 to $40 every time I withdraw cash, and if you have to withdraw it multiple times, you lose a lot of money. ”
Two years ago, she switched to a multi-currency debit card, which allowed her to top up and withdraw cash in the currency she wanted. Pashuk said she saved her freelance earnings into the card and took it to more than 20 countries without any problems.

3.
Do full research.
She said that as a digital traveller, in the process of moving to a workplace, it is really important to do adequate research.
To figure out the average local prices, determine if they fit your budget, and find the average prices for Airbnb apartments, food, and other essentials.
Before going somewhere, Pashuk always makes a small table of the items needed for life.
“You never know what unknowns might creep up and steal your money. ”
For example, public transport can be prohibitively expensive in some countries. People often don ’ t think of this, Pashuk shares, because public transport is always cheap where you ’ re staying. “But I went to London and it cost a lot more than I thought, up to $20 a day. ”
Pay close attention to tax requirements
Pashuk also regularly keeps an eye on the latest tax requirements of different countries to ensure that a stay in one country is not long enough to be considered a tax resident.
"I just don't want to deal with it," she said. "Canada's taxes are enough for me."
If you ’ re considering becoming a “slow-moving digital traveller, ” Pashuk suggests studying digital traveller visas, as they typically offer tax relief — and some even complete exemption.
The more you travel, the more accurate you can predict how much you will spend, she says.
“Where you can cut costs, you have to be a little smart.
Being financially proficient is definitely a good thing in the long run and can keep you moving forward. ”

According to William Russell, a human resources company, 10 countries are suitable for digital nomadic work, with Taiwan ranked third.
Kao Chia-ching / Authentication Editor
[Financial Channel / Comprehensive Report] Job types have become more popular in recent years, and William Russell, a human resources company, points out that 10 countries are suitable for digital nomadic work, including Taiwan, which is also ranked third, and Taiwan ’ s “health care system ” is highly praised.
Spain and Albania ranked first in the ranking of digital nomads, with a maximum five-year extension for digital nomads, according to the Daily Mail.
However, in Spain, applicants for a digital nomad visa must have an undergraduate or postgraduate degree from a well-known university or business school, or have at least three years of work experience in the current field.
Mexico and El Salvador are tied for second place, with digital nomadic visas that can be extended for up to four years but require some proof of income to qualify.
Germany, Malta, Taiwan and Cyprus are ranked third, and remote workers can obtain visas for up to three years.
Norway and Portugal are ranked fourth, offering visas for up to two years.
William Cooper, marketing director at William Russell, said: “There are a lot of things to consider before moving to another country and officially becoming a digital nomad.
For example, in most countries or regions, it is necessary to have international health insurance to ensure that expenses such as doctor visits and hospitalization are covered while you live abroad.
""
Countries such as Malta and Taiwan offer well-established health care systems for their residents, including expatriates and digital nomads, so they are unlikely to incur too much medical costs, Cooper said.

Cassie, a digital nomad from Australia, came to Bali to work for two months.
She wanted to experience the local community, but instead she stumbled upon the “mini Australia ” of Canggu.
Cangu is a popular tourist attraction in Indonesia, favored by many digital nomads.
Kathy works as a virtual assistant around the world. In 2020, when she realized she could work anywhere, she thought of working as a virtual assistant on TikTok.
When her lease ended last year, she gave up office work and commuting to work remotely from her favorite place, taking charge of virtual social media and email management.
She has seen firsthand the positive and negative impact that digital nomads can have on local communities.

"A lot of westerners have bought [Kuragi's] restaurants and villas and they really drive up prices, which in some way pushes locals out of the market," she said.
Digital nomads thrive in the era of telecommuting, often in freelance digital roles such as social media management or content creation, and even finance, where they revere the freedom to live and work overseas, free to choose their working hours and decide how to spend each day.
They are also being welcomed by the tourism and hospitality industry, with co-working cafes offering cocktails and swimming pools, while co-op hotels offer high-speed Wi-Fi and group activities.
Canggu is full of signs encouraging tourists to work remotely, and the economic benefits of tourism provide opportunities for the region.
But, as some have questioned on TikTok, is the digital nomadic movement a kind of neo-colonization?
Tourists come and go, but digital nomads can stay in one place for weeks, months or years, potentially exacerbating gentrification and the housing crisis.
Recently, The New York Times reported that Mexico City has become a hub for digital nomads, but the surge has exacerbated the pressure on the already tight housing market, making it unaffordable for locals.
Housing activists accused city leaders of allowing “modern colonization. ”
The rise of digital nomads
Countries around the world are embracing the era of digital nomads, with 50 countries, including Dubai and Iceland, offering specific visas for this new type of traveler.
To work remotely in Mexico, you need to prove that you have $43,000 in your savings account in the past 12 months; to Portugal, you need to have at least $4500 a month in income; to Indonesia, you need to have more than $200,000 in savings but can do “investment and other activities. ”
The requirements mean many digital nomads use tourist visas to leave the country when their visas expire, just to re-enter.
According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, between January and September last year, 3,000 foreigners entered Indonesia on B211A tourist visas for telecommuting.
One enthusiast of the digital nomad industry predicts that there will be 1 billion digital nomads by 2035, driven by factors such as the rise of high-speed internet and freelancing, as well as declining home ownership and marriage rates.
Are digital nomads taking part in the new colonization?
Some communities are opposed to the influx, and Mexico City residents say they see gentrification and housing drain problems triggered by foreigners seeking cheaper accommodation.
Anthropologist Shaun Busuttil, a PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne who studies digital nomads, believes that digital nomads are undergoing some form of neo-colonization, but it ’ s not all black and white, or good and bad.
In an interview with Erik Muth of YouTube ’ s Rising Nomad channel, Basutil explained: “Historically, colonialism was when a group of people with more power or resources came into a place and effectively took over it and used the space for themselves. ”
“What are we doing as digital nomads? We go into these places, take over them, and enjoy their low cost of living. ”
Shops and businesses will eventually cater to the financial prowess of new visitors, Bousutier believes.
“So the old-fashioned fruit and vegetable shop that has been in town or village for generations now has suddenly turned into a cafe to attract digital nomads.
Is digital nomadism, then, a form of neocolonialism? ” he asked.
"Well, we're coming in and we're effectively taking over," he said.
"Look at Lisbon, or even Mexico City, or Barcelona, where locals are being replaced by foreign teleworkers and digital nomads," he said.
He told Moos that while it was usually those with fewer resources who were most affected by gentrification, those with more resources were able to take advantage of the economic opportunities offered by tourism.
How to avoid causing problems?
Keith thinks deeply about the impact on the communities he visits and how it can have a positive impact.
"As a digital nomad, I feel like we should make sure we contribute to the local economy - eat at local restaurants, stay locally and pay a reasonable fee for that," said the statement.
Both Busutil and Casey believe tourists should pay the full price, not haggle.
“It ’ s important to be aware of the impact you have on the local area, ” says Casey.
"That way you can walk into the local community, eat at the local restaurants, stay in the local area, and give back to the local community," said the statement.
At the moment, Casey likes the pace of life of digital nomads and has no plans for a pause.
“Being able to finish work in the morning and then off work and take an adventure in the afternoon – I experienced paragliding in Laos and was great and went swimming to see the waterfall – I think when you can schedule your own time, you can experience more from life. ”

Why are some local communities resisting digital nomads?

Russian IT specialists are increasingly relocating to South America due to political and economic challenges in Russia, forming a technological hub in the region.

Which countries have become popular for Russian emigres after the invasion of Ukraine?


Digital nomads are individuals who prioritize mobility over stability, working remotely while traveling and often rejecting traditional societal norms such as property ownership and permanent residency.

The digital nomad lifestyle has been made possible by advancements in the Internet, IT technologies, and the normalization of remote work, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This lifestyle is often associated with freedom and flexibility, allowing individuals to work from anywhere without being tied to a specific office or schedule.

The philosophy of digital nomadism emphasizes minimalism and anti-materialism, encouraging contentment with fewer possessions and a focus on experiences over material wealth.

Countries such as Dubai, Iceland, Mexico, Portugal, and Indonesia have introduced specific visa programs to attract digital nomads, each with varying financial and legal requirements.

Digital nomad visas allow individuals to legally stay in a country for extended periods, often longer than tourist visas, with income thresholds and durations differing by country.

Popular destinations for digital nomads include Thailand, Indonesia, Portugal, Mexico, and Argentina, which offer favorable climates, affordable living costs, and reliable Internet access.

Vietnamese cities such as Da Nang, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City are increasingly popular among digital nomads due to their low cost of living, excellent wireless access, and scenic beauty.

Although Vietnam does not offer a specific digital nomad visa, it provides e-visas for up to 90 days to travelers from nearly 200 countries.

South American countries are also attractive to digital nomads, as many do not require visas for entry and offer relatively simple processes for extending residence permits.

Spain and Albania are ranked as top destinations for digital nomads, offering visa extensions for up to five years.

Mexico and El Salvador follow closely, providing digital nomad visas that can be extended for up to four years, contingent on proof of income.

Frequent relocation, a hallmark of the digital nomad lifestyle, can be both stressful and expensive due to high travel costs and logistical challenges.

Unpredictable monthly income and expenses, influenced by location and circumstances, add another layer of complexity to this lifestyle.

Digital nomads must also navigate tax requirements in different countries to avoid unintentional tax residency, which can lead to legal complications.

Adapting to new cultures and languages, balancing work-life commitments, and ensuring access to healthcare are additional challenges faced by digital nomads.

Frequent travel can lead to exhaustion and homesickness, particularly for those living far from their home countries.

Establishing a routine and creating a designated workspace can help digital nomads maintain productivity and consistency in their work.

The digital nomad lifestyle offers significant advantages, including the flexibility to choose working hours and the freedom to explore new activities and destinations.

Geo-arbitrage, or leveraging cost-of-living differences between countries, allows digital nomads to enjoy a higher quality of life at a lower cost.

A 'slow digital nomad' approach, where individuals stay in one location for at least a month, can help reduce stress and stabilize budgets.

Building an affordable 'base camp' in a specific location provides a sense of stability while still allowing for travel and exploration.

Digital nomads often work in fields such as programming, graphic design, writing, translation, and project management, which are well-suited to remote work.

Freelance roles like social media management, content creation, and finance are also popular among digital nomads, offering the flexibility to work from anywhere.

Coworking and coliving spaces are essential for digital nomads, providing shared environments for work and living that foster community and collaboration.

High-speed Internet and portable technology are critical tools for digital nomads, enabling them to work from diverse locations such as cafes, libraries, and coworking spaces.

A mobile hotspot is a vital tool for ensuring reliable Internet access in areas with spotty connections.

Using a multi-currency debit card can help digital nomads avoid high offshore transaction fees and issues with flagged bank accounts due to frequent location changes.

The influx of digital nomads in cities like Lisbon and Mexico City has contributed to housing crises and gentrification, making accommodation less affordable for locals.

Critics argue that digital nomadism can resemble neo-colonialism, as foreign workers benefit from low living costs while reshaping local economies to suit their needs.

Local businesses often adapt to cater to digital nomads, replacing traditional shops with cafes and coworking spaces, which can displace long-standing community establishments.

Digital nomads are encouraged to contribute positively to local economies by supporting local businesses, staying in locally-owned accommodations, and paying fair prices.

Access to healthcare is a critical consideration for digital nomads, who often require international health insurance to cover medical expenses while living abroad.

Countries like Malta and Taiwan have well-established healthcare systems that minimize medical costs for expatriates and digital nomads.

Russian IT specialists are increasingly relocating to South America due to the ongoing military conflict in Russia, forming a growing technological hub in the region.

Some Russian entrepreneurs are moving to South America to escape difficulties in operating businesses in Russia and to explore new market opportunities.

Investment firms in Dubai have reported a surge in inquiries from Russian businessmen seeking to relocate their companies to South America since March 2022.

Digital nomads are individuals who prioritize mobility over stability, working remotely while traveling and often rejecting traditional societal norms such as property ownership and permanent residency.

In recent years, the global media began to vigorously promote "travel living", translated from English - travel-life.
Its supporters are called digital nomads, or digital nomads.
They are not attached to the place of residence and work and are ready to trade comfort, stability and career prospects for life in continuous motion.
In the US alone, this philosophy is shared by 22 million people, or one in 15 Americans, in the world – 35 million, and by 2030, the number of digital nomads on the planet is projected to grow to one billion people.
Experts believe that this is the way to form a “seamless ” world with a“ connected person ” without roots.

Down with office stress
Video of the day
The first digital nomad was an American writer and programmer.
In 1983, he set off on a computerized bike and completed it on a yacht in 2021.
The revival of the ancient nomadic way of life in the 21st century has become possible thanks to the Internet and IT technologies, and the pandemic of the covid with a remote format of work has spurred it.
By 2030, the number of digital nomads could reach a billion people.
What kind of people are these?
The first group is digital.
Programmers, project managers, graphic designers, journalists, writers, lawyers, translators, analysts, testers, copywriters, video editors, product managers.
Six months in the Maldives, three months in Barbados or the United Arab Emirates, where the world ’ s fastest mobile Internet.
The second is adventurers and wanderers.
The third is mortgages, for which loan payments are more expensive than permanent tourism and being in cheap areas of the world.
The philosophy of digital nomads is to untie themselves from their place of birth and one job.
Choose countries where the best climate, cheaper food, where there are no toxic offices, civil duties, but only the right to live in pleasure.
Digital nomads consider themselves the chosen ones of fate, because, in their opinion, they make the free choice of a free person.
Life in motion, they argue, is not bliss, but the norm.
Their favorite slogan is “The values of minimalism make us happy. ”
Nature, freedom, unprocessed food, physical activity...
A lot is said about this on their profile sites.
Anxiety and desire to change places
Hunting for a change of places is a problem of motives, and they are different, correspondent member, philosopher, chief researcher of the Institute of Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences Jean Toshchenko told the “Parliamentary newspaper ”.
Someone just has the opportunity to choose the best conditions of life and work.
Others have the pressure of economic circumstances.
This is facilitated by the growing class of precariat (people working in low-paid and unstable jobs without social guarantees - sick leave, vacation, with a reduced salary).
The transition from permanent to part-time, temporary, part-time employment makes it easier for such people to get out of place and go wherever they look.
Another category is those who, in principle, do not care about the content of the work, says the scientist.
They expect to find something to do everywhere.
From here the ease of lifting.
Finally, there are those who choose a way of life where civil obligations do not prevail over them.
An expert from the United States John Peters in a sensational article “Exile, Nomadism and the Diaspora ” called the opposition of nomad and state as the key idea of the movement.
Many travelers begin with the term “climate emigration ”, but constant mobility erases the boundaries of cultural and national identity.
As a result, the concept of homeland is also being rethought, and this is already marginality, he concludes.
A typical portrait of a digital nomad, according to the Nomad List survey, is a minimalist with a laptop, a backpack, a bachelor ’ s degree, a passport and a cup of coffee.
Lives in one place for an average of 70 days.
At the heart of the mentality is anti-materialism and contentment with small things.
The most attractive side of travel is cheapness, according to one of the profile sites.
Nomadism saves a lot of money because the costs of maintaining the property, maintaining the car, parking, winter clothes disappear.
It is fascinating and good for health.
The main cost item is renting a roof over your head and food.
Geo-arbitrage helps to live better and cheaper – the use of price differences between countries.
Peace in your pocket and nothing of your own
Some researchers call traveling a new socio-economic model.
It echoes the program slogans of the “great reset ” of the world proclaimed at the Davos Economic Forum.
According to it, the preservation of the planet in the interests of future generations requires tightening the belts of the living, limiting economic growth and reducing consumption.
The projected image of the future assumes that a person will be available to the whole world, a lot of services, but at the same time he will not have anything of his own.
Globalizers argue that property and binding to a permanent place of residence burden and encroach on the personal freedoms of citizens.
Why buy a house when you can rent it?
Why a personal car when there is carsharing?
Why save money when you can have a basic guaranteed income?
Why spend money on heating an apartment, if you can go to the warm lands for the winter?
When a person has no stake or yard, it is especially easy.
Modern nomads often call themselves citizens of the world.
The nomad is always online, and it is more convenient for him to communicate even with friends online, rather than offline.
Therefore, some experts have given it the definition of “connected person ”.
The unwritten motto of digital nomads: movement is everything, goal is nothing.
There are 300 people in the world who have visited all 196 countries of the world (including unrecognized territories).
Among them are Australian Rach and Slovak Marty.
The women described the adventures of the 15-year-old circumnavigation in the blog “Very Hungry Nomads ”.
They set out to inspire the women of the world to live without office stress, work on the beach, expand horizons and embrace new thinking.
Travelers sold out all the property and lived with luggage from two backpacks of hand luggage.
The focus of their project was food.
Odyssey cost 274 thousand dollars.
Her conclusion: the most delicious food is in Ethiopia, Afghanistan and Uzbek farmers.
The number of nomadism activists in Russia is also increasing.
For example, ethnologist Mikhail Zarubin traveled to 193 countries for 10 years and wrote a book for children “Tales of Young Travelers ”.
Four years more spent on the circumnavigation of his friend, the photographer.
150 hotels annually - the norm for Lisa and Vitalik, whose journey lasts 12 years.
Many other travel bloggers share their impressions on the website travcave.ru.
Traffic infrastructure
The digital nomad relies on infrastructure.
A digital nomad visa allows individuals who earn an income of at least $2,000 from a foreign jurisdiction to legally stay in the country longer than tourists.
Its price in Brazil is 72 dollars, in Greece - 75, Costa Rica - 100, Argentina - from 120 to 240, in Bermuda - 260, in the Bahamas and in the UAE - a thousand dollars.
Validity from 180 days to 10 years.
In countries where there is no such visa, nomads often live on tourist and even student, and the authorities turn a blind eye to this.
The elements of infrastructure are also coworking and coliving (common spaces where you can live and work with like-minded people).
The number of the first, according to forecasts, by 2025 will reach 26 thousand, and the second annually grows by a third.
In Russia, too, there is a coliving - "Station Smena".
It provides, according to the presentation, a unique opportunity to combine work and party.
Remotely you can work from home, public libraries, cafes - if only there was an Internet and a laptop.
The wealthier ones move around in offices on wheels.
However, the vans at home with a table, a lot of sockets, chargers and a background for conferences are like a luxury German crossover.
The system of hubs for nomads is characterized by a favorable climate, high-speed Internet, an easy visa regime and a low cost of living.
The most attractive locations are Chiang Mai (Thailand) and Bali (Indonesia), in Europe - Lisbon, Gran Canaria and the island of Madeira, in America - Medellin, Mexico City and Buenos Aires.
If the money runs out, nomads can spend the night in churches for free, in extreme cases - in a tent, especially since they do not tend to cold lands.
Someone on occasion earns remote trade, hand-made, bartenders, guides, DJs and VJs, nurses, teachers and what God will send.
As befits a philosopher, Jean Toshchenko is not surprised:
“The world is entering an era of great migration of peoples, similar to the one that took place 15 centuries ago.
The process of global migration is driven by economic, political and climatic factors.
And this general mobility affects all of humanity, making it dynamic. ”
The philosophy of individualism
And if everyone wants to live on an eternal journey, who will remain in their native country and will improve it?
Is there a balance between personal freedom and civic responsibility?
Is not the sense of patriotism atrophied, for example, among the digital class, part of which has amicably rushed outside Russia?
The balance between freedom and responsibility was sought by Voltaire and Belinsky.
They are looking for it and will be looking for it at all times, ” the chairman of the Council for the Development of the Digital Economy evasively replied to the Parliamentary Newspaper.
First Deputy Chairman of the Committee for Tourism and Tourism Development Nikolai Valuev did not hide skepticism from our publication:
“No matter what you dream and want, people will always be tied by a bunch of circumstances to the place of residence.
Work, habit, property, kinship and social ties, so these cosmopolitans will always be in the region of statistical error. ”
Comparing digital nomads, immigrants and relocants is incorrect, said the development director of VTsIOM Consulting.
The concept of “digital-nomadism ” develops a philosophy of individualism, he told“ Parlamentskaya Gazeta ”.
Its values: freedom to choose life goals, ways and places of work, the desire for openness of information, intolerance of discrimination and the conditional “seamless ” of the world.
At the same time, nomads, earning in their country, spend money in a foreign country.
How should this state be treated?
Why in the US with a population of 330 million people, Trump in his election program promises to introduce maternity capital for a new baby boom?
"Any government wants its citizens to work at home and develop the domestic economy," Yermolaev said. - The generation of the first baby boom is close to retirement age, which increases the burden on social infrastructure and reduces the number of able-bodied people.
And the digital nomad community in the US is growing.
According to MBO Partners, there are 16.9 million, and according to Nomand List, 22 million.
If the trend continues, the country ’ s economy will face a serious challenge in the coming years. ”
In Russia, according to Nomad List, digital nomads are still relatively few - 2.3 million.
And yet they should be taken seriously, urges the dean of the Faculty of Economics.
As a rule, nomads do not seek to part with the country, they can continue to work for domestic companies, benefiting the state.
And in order to preserve this human capital, to prevent its possible leakage, an income tax of 13 percent should be saved for this category, the economist believes.
According to the current rules, tax non-residents - people who have been in Russia for less than 183 calendar days for twelve consecutive months - must pay income tax not 13 percent, but 30 percent, besides they are not entitled to tax deductions.
As the head of the State Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Affairs Yaroslav Nilov told our publication, all the necessary regulation in the field of remote employment was developed and fixed in Chapter 49.1 of the Labor Code even during the coronavirus pandemic.
Thanks to this, many workers today work remotely, most of them within the country.
Any changes to the law will also affect them, he explained.
This is usually used in a situation where there is an imbalance of interests of employers and employees.
“If people continue to perform their duties in accordance with labor contracts, taxes and payments are deducted from their income, then why invent something? ” the deputy concluded.

The digital nomad lifestyle has been made possible by advancements in the Internet, IT technologies, and the normalization of remote work, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This lifestyle is often associated with freedom and flexibility, allowing individuals to work from anywhere without being tied to a specific office or schedule.

A Guide for College Students Embracing the Digital Nomad Lifestyle

A digital nomad is someone who works remotely and travels often. Their work doesn’t require them to report to an office or adhere to a strict schedule. Instead, they can work anywhere in the world, doing the job they love.

It’s no wonder this lifestyle is appealing more to college students. They can travel the world while studying and working abroad. That said, being a college student and a digital nomad is a challenge. It’s not like a vacation where all you have to worry about is enjoying yourself.

You have to learn how to balance the fun of traveling with work and school commitments. The following tips will help you do just that.

Understand What the Digital Nomad Lifestyle Will Be Like

You have to understand what the digital nomad lifestyle will be like if you want it to work out. You can assess whether this life is for you, and better prepare for it if you decide that it is.

Here are some critical points to consider about the digital nomad lifestyle:

  • A work-life balance is a must
  • Traveling often can be exhausting
  • You must ensure access to healthcare
  • You need a plan for financial stability
  • You’ll have to adapt to new cultures and languages
  • Knowing visa requirements and other legal requirements is essential
  • You might experience homesickness, especially if you go international
  • Balancing school with work and life in a new place is a big commitment

Dig into these factors and research all you’ll have to do and give up to be a digital nomad. Then, you can make an informed decision about moving forward.

Master Time Management

You’ll have to take your time management up a few notches if you want to be a digital nomad.

It’s one thing to balance life and school. It’s another to balance life, school, traveling, and potentially, work. You must learn how to divide your days so that you pay each of these things the attention they need. In addition, time management will ensure you don’t burn out.

Start with a routine to build some consistency into your days. Wake up at the same time regardless of your schedule and get ready for your days the same way.

You can establish priority tasks the night before, like your classes, if you’re working, and when you’ll study. Set aside time for breaks, meals, and leisure time as well. Building these activities into your schedule will ensure you actually do them.

Attach times to each task and activity. For example, you have classes from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Next, you’ll have lunch from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. After that, you have work from 1:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Then, you’ll study from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., and the rest of the night is yours.

Manage your time wisely and you can achieve everything you set out for each day.

Learn How to Stay Productive

One of the biggest challenges digital nomads run into is staying productive. All of the fun activities you can do when you travel to a new place can be distracting. It might be hard to stay motivated when you’re homesick. Technical and logistical issues can impact your productivity as well.

So, learning how to maintain peak productivity while studying and working on the road is essential.

Adhering to the routine we mentioned above will help keep you focused. Eliminate distractions while working by turning your phone on Do Not Disturb and muting social media apps. Create a designated workspace. You could also incentivize productivity by promising yourself a fun activity after you complete your work.

Secure your tech setup as well to maintain optimal productivity. Make sure you have the basics, like a good laptop set up with the proper work and school software and noise-canceling headphones.

Another crucial tool to have is a mobile hotspot. A hotspot ensures you can connect to the internet wirelessly on your mobile devices from virtually anywhere. This will come in handy when you travel internationally or to places with spotty internet connections. No matter where you are, you can still access your studies and any work you’re doing online.

Equip yourself with the right tools and techniques to stay productive as a digital nomad.

Choose Work That Aligns With Your Studies and Interests

Digital nomads are known to take many different directions with their work. You have options and can easily make a living while studying and traveling abroad. The key is ensuring the work you do doesn’t distract from your education and pull you away from who you are.

You’ll have a much better experience as a digital nomad if you choose work that aligns with your studies and interests. Rather than taking the barista job at the local cafe, work with your school to see if there are any work-study opportunities where you’re traveling.

You can also take the job search into your own hands. Search for job openings before you head to your destination through online job boards. Ask for referrals from fellow students.

Consider fully remote positions as well. There are many work-from-home jobs available that can accommodate a college student’s digital nomad lifestyle, such as being a tutor or a content writer for subjects related to your major.

Whatever work you decide to do, make sure it doesn’t take away from your studies and aligns with who you are and what you want to be.

Conclusion

Many college students are attracted to the digital nomad lifestyle because it allows them to travel freely while studying and working where they want to. As enticing as this life is, being a digital nomad isn’t void of challenges.

Make sure you understand what you’re getting into, master time management, learn to stay productive, and choose work that aligns with your studies and interests to give yourself a real chance at a successful digital nomad life.

Both Busutil and Casey believe tourists should pay the full price, not haggle.
“It ’ s important to be aware of the impact you have on the local area, ” says Casey.
"That way you can walk into the local community, eat at the local restaurants, stay in the local area, and give back to the local community," said the statement.
At the moment, Casey likes the pace of life of digital nomads and has no plans for a pause.
“Being able to finish work in the morning and then off work and take an adventure in the afternoon – I experienced paragliding in Laos and was great and went swimming to see the waterfall – I think when you can schedule your own time, you can experience more from life. ”

International Center Lai Cheng-lin / General Report
In the wake of the pandemic, digital nomad has become the latest form of work, and many people who can “work remotely ” have begun to travel to other countries around the world, taking vacations and working with their computers.
In a survey of digital nomads, three cities in Vietnam are among the top 10 most visited places in the world for digital nomads: Da Nang, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
This is an advertisement, please continue reading.
According to Nomad List, the world ’ s largest database of remote workers, Da Nang, a coastal city in central Vietnam, ranks second behind Tokyo, Japan, with a 109% increase in the digital nomadic population in 2023; Hanoi ranks seventh with a 58% growth rate; and Ho Chi Minh City ranks ninth with a 55% growth rate.
Most Vietnamese cities have excellent wireless access, low cost of living, and beautiful scenery, making them the latest darling of digital nomadic workers around the world.
Of these three cities in Vietnam, Da Nang is considered the third largest city in Vietnam after Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, with free Wi-Fi in the city center, fast internet speeds and beautiful coastline.
An important factor for digital nomads considering a temporary city is the living environment, as well as the cost of living to meet the convenient and comfortable working environment, while the cost of living in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City is quite low.
The average cost of living for a number of nomads in Hanoi is US $1,289 per month (about NT $38,000) and in Ho Chi Minh City US $1,157 per month (about NT $34,000).
Other places on the list are Seoul, South Korea, in third place; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in fourth place; Penang, Malaysia, in fifth place; Montevideo, Uruguay, in sixth place; Manila, Philippines, in eighth place; and Lubjana, Slovenia, in tenth place.
To compile the list, experts at Nomad List ranked the fastest-growing cities for remote workers by analyzing nearly 300,000 registrations in the database over the past two years.
Vietnam, with three cities on the list, does not offer a “digital nomad visa ”, but it offers global travelers from nearly 200 countries the ability to easily apply online for e-visas for up to 90 days, and in Southeast Asia only Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia offer special digital nomad visa programs for foreigners to work remotely if they meet certain requirements.

Named the location of the left from Russia “digital nomads ”
Russian IT specialists are massively moving to the countries of South America.
The reason for the departure was a military conflict.
This is reported by the Financial Times.
Photo by RIA NovostiRIA Novosti
Professor of Columbia University ICESI Vladimir Ruvinsky said that over the period from February to June 2022, hundreds of residents of Russia moved to the states of Central and South America.
It is noted that the Russians chose this macroregion for the reason that a visa is not required to visit many of its countries.
In addition, extending the standard 90-day residence permit is quite easy.
Maxim Artushenko, manager of a startup in the field of e-commerce, said that the reason for moving is also the fact that some businessmen face problems doing business in Russia.
Those who could not open their business in the Russian Federation or were forced to close it, are trying to enter new markets.
His words are confirmed by the manager of the investment company in Dubai.
He said that since the beginning of March 2022, he has received dozens of requests from businessmen from Russia who intend to move their companies to South America.
He believes that a Russian technological hub is gradually being formed in this region.

[Financial Channel / Comprehensive Report] Job types have become more popular in recent years, and William Russell, a human resources company, points out that 10 countries are suitable for digital nomadic work, including Taiwan, which is also ranked third, and Taiwan ’ s “health care system ” is highly praised.
Spain and Albania ranked first in the ranking of digital nomads, with a maximum five-year extension for digital nomads, according to the Daily Mail.
However, in Spain, applicants for a digital nomad visa must have an undergraduate or postgraduate degree from a well-known university or business school, or have at least three years of work experience in the current field.
Mexico and El Salvador are tied for second place, with digital nomadic visas that can be extended for up to four years but require some proof of income to qualify.
Germany, Malta, Taiwan and Cyprus are ranked third, and remote workers can obtain visas for up to three years.
Norway and Portugal are ranked fourth, offering visas for up to two years.
William Cooper, marketing director at William Russell, said: “There are a lot of things to consider before moving to another country and officially becoming a digital nomad.
For example, in most countries or regions, it is necessary to have international health insurance to ensure that expenses such as doctor visits and hospitalization are covered while you live abroad.
""
Countries such as Malta and Taiwan offer well-established health care systems for their residents, including expatriates and digital nomads, so they are unlikely to incur too much medical costs, Cooper said.

Remote work during the pandemic made home-based work or digital nomad popular, and Canadian schoolgirl Daniella Pashuk became a digital nomad five years ago.
At that time, the new crown had not yet broken out, and only at the age of 19, she entered an online university and began working full-time while traveling.
The term “digital nomads ” refers to people who travel freely while working remotely on the Internet.
They usually have the least material possessions. They work online using computers or smartphones in temporary homes, hotels, cafes, public libraries, shared offices or motorhomes. They often move between different countries and regions, and work as programmers, designers, writers, translators, etc.
“I can go where I want to go and do what I want in different countries.
It changed the trajectory of my life, "she told CNBC.
Pashuk, 24, has traveled to more than 20 countries in five years and is a freelance writer whose monthly income fluctuates.
“My monthly income ranges from $2,500 to $3,500 … Some months I travel as a family nanny, so I don ’ t have to pay any accommodation fees. ”
It also means that she has to plan her finances with extra care, although she can travel and work whenever she wants.
“You have to accept a little bit of unpredictability … each month looks different because you ’ re often in different regions, in different currencies, with different spending, so forecasting is a challenge, ” she says.
Extremes like “spending 600 euros last month and 3,000 euros the next month, ” Pashuk recalls.
To be a digital nomad, she says, it ’ s important to keep your finances in good shape because you have to fund the lifestyle you really want.
She shared four financial tips for being a digital hobbyist with CNBC.
Decide what kind of digital nomad you want to be
Pashuk says that what type of digital nomad you want to be will determine your situation.
The first type is people who change places frequently, going to a new place every one to two weeks.
She was in this state for almost two years at one time, but then stopped doing it because she found it was too stressful for her.
This can quickly become expensive, she said, as there is a big chance of problems with each move, such as high ticket prices, train cancellations and other extra costs.
Now she ’ s a “Slow Digital Nomad ” who stays in one place for at least a month or as long as her visa allows.
Pashuk says this helps the budget because the budget is fixed for months, and you stay in the same place and still spend the same things.
In addition, building an affordable “base camp ” can go a long way, providing some stability.
Currently, Pashuk has a “headquarters ” in Montenegro, but also works in different places:“ I still travel every month, but I have a place to come back. ”
She has to spend at least a certain amount each month, such as paying rent in Montenegro, but it has little impact on the total expenditure.
2. Use the correct debit card
When Pashuk started out as a digital nomad, having a stable and reliable cash flow was a huge challenge.
Her Canadian bank account has been locked because she is constantly changing locations, which the bank thinks is a bit suspicious.
So she was forced to call the bank all the time.
In addition, when you use a Canadian card to withdraw money from a local ATM, the offshore transaction fee is also considerable.
“Sometimes I lose $30 to $40 every time I withdraw cash, and if you have to withdraw it multiple times, you lose a lot of money. ”
Two years ago, she switched to a multi-currency debit card, which allowed her to top up and withdraw cash in the currency she wanted. Pashuk said she saved her freelance earnings into the card and took it to more than 20 countries without any problems.

3.
Do full research.
She said that as a digital traveller, in the process of moving to a workplace, it is really important to do adequate research.
To figure out the average local prices, determine if they fit your budget, and find the average prices for Airbnb apartments, food, and other essentials.
Before going somewhere, Pashuk always makes a small table of the items needed for life.
“You never know what unknowns might creep up and steal your money. ”
For example, public transport can be prohibitively expensive in some countries. People often don ’ t think of this, Pashuk shares, because public transport is always cheap where you ’ re staying. “But I went to London and it cost a lot more than I thought, up to $20 a day. ”
Pay close attention to tax requirements
Pashuk also regularly keeps an eye on the latest tax requirements of different countries to ensure that a stay in one country is not long enough to be considered a tax resident.
"I just don't want to deal with it," she said. "Canada's taxes are enough for me."
If you ’ re considering becoming a “slow-moving digital traveller, ” Pashuk suggests studying digital traveller visas, as they typically offer tax relief — and some even complete exemption.
The more you travel, the more accurate you can predict how much you will spend, she says.
“Where you can cut costs, you have to be a little smart.
Being financially proficient is definitely a good thing in the long run and can keep you moving forward. ”
