Three Very Cool Experiences For Digital Nomads
The digital nomad life can be fun, freeing, and fabulous. It can also be challenging and even lonely. Which is why it’s great that, in most well-traveled regions these days, there are co-working spaces where we can often find the support and friendship of other digital nomads.
There are also a few very cool ways to connect with other digital nomads en masse, and have some unique experiences. Here are a few of the best.
Remote year
Remote year is a company that puts together itineraries for groups of digital nomads who want to spend a year traveling and working on the road. They offer various itineraries with one thing in common. You’ll be traveling, and working, with a group of other digital nomads, giving you an opportunity for support, collaboration and new friendships forged along the way.
A remote year tends to involve 12 locations, each of which you enjoy for a month, and they’ll be pretty diverse. A currently advertised program takes in Prague, Hanoi, Kyoto, and Santiago. While many people embrace the concept fully and book a true remote year, there’s also a four month itinerary available.
Current prices for the full, 12 month, remote year experience are around $2250 (US) per month, less than average monthly living costs in many major cities such as London, San Francisco, or New York. This includes accommodation and utilities, full-time access to a co-working space in each city, transport between cities, and some local experiences and events. You’ll still have to pay for food, entertainment, and transport around the city, although your co-working space will always be within walking distance of your accomodation. Want to travel with your partner? There’s a discount for couples sharing accommodation. Find out about the program here.
Nomad Cruise
So maybe you don’t want to bother with all the packing and unpacking. Why not join Nomad Cruise, now in its 8th year and planning its 9th cruise in November 2019.
The cruise caters for all digital nomads, offering talks, workshops, networking and masterminds, as well as all the usual on-board fun you’d expect from a cruise, and land excursions to soak up a bit of local culture along the way.
