Did a โask me anythingโ on the nomad forums:
I would love to hear what you'd like me to build next on Nomad List, or any other product/feature feedback ideas you have.
It's been 6+ years now but I'm in this for the long term and with the boost remote work got last year it's even more exciting to work on Nomad List than ever.
As part of signing up for this website I was hoping I would come across a list of Visa and/or Residency requirements by country ideally in a table format to assist with decision making. Does anybody recommend any other websites that might present the information in this format (or Google Spreadsheet)?
I love living in walkable areas of town. I can always find them. But now I'm wondering where in the world are the most walkable places? I'm imagining walk streets (no cars), zoning allowing both business and residential, parks or beaches ,etc.
After the Netherlands, the Bay Area, Colorado and being on the van life for 8 months, I am now in Sedona, AZ with a few other digital nomads. We are sharing a home here and are wondering if there are more like minded people in the area.
We do a bunch of hikes and campouts in the northern of Arizona. If you would like to connect with us, please do so :)
Hi everybody. I live and work in Germany and want to go to Canary Islands for 6 months to work from there. I'm going to keep my current job, just change the "home" in the home office part of things. Are there any tax issues I have to be aware of? I was reading about becoming a residence after 183 days, thus having to pay taxes there plus my employer having to register there. Does anybody know how it works exactly? Thanks a lot!
Winter is coming and Iโm feeling the ache of travelling after being stuck in the same place since the Pandemic started. Wondering if anyone is travelling right now? If so, where are you currently located and how is the situation where you are?
Iโm French and Iโm leaving Paris and my current full time job. In a few month, Iโll move to Bali to be a fresh digital nomad in web development. I learn about the different possibilities to create my own business and I would have feedbacks. whatโs the best ? Iโve an opportunity to work with my actual french company as a freelancer, remotly, on specific missions.
But I donโt know If I have to create my company in France to continue working with them or maybe one in Singapour like with sleek.sg. I donโt know if itโs it easy to work with a french company with a singapore company. I then plan to find other missions with fewer time differences, (Australia โฆ)
You can look up the Iglu company in Thailand. It is a legal way of working in Thailand with a work permit for digital nomads. Are there other companies in Thailand offering work permits for digital nomads? They charge you 30% of your salary, which is a lot. Are there other companies charging less than Iglu or have a different pricing scheme?
I currently work at one of the big 5 tech companies (Google, Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon), at the main campus as a software engineer. I was wondering if any nomads work remotely for said companies and how you came to that arrangement. Working for myself or moving to a smaller company that has mostly remote work seems less desirable than maintaining access to all the resources I have internal to my company.
we are a very small remote german company (3 at the moment) but we are expanding and three new colleagues will be working for us in the upcoming weeks/months. Up until now, we used Skype and my regular mobile phone line for all the intern/support and selling calls but since we will have soon other people working for support and selling too, we need to profesionalice that aspect.
In your opinion and experience, what is the best and more cost efficient VOIP / SIP service that we could use? Thanks!
So I know itโs illegal to work in Europe for European companies without a work visa / permit. Iโm also aware of the Germany freelancer visa, which lets you work in Germany legally for 3 years (but Iโm not stationing in Germany; I want to hop hop hop). I see many digital nomads programming on the road, making income from American companies on a Schengen tourist visa. Of course this seems fine, since itโs brining American dollars into Europe. But is it legal? Has anyone had experiences / conversations with immigration, or seen this discussed anywhere online? My Google fu fails me here.
Has any played any fun games with their distributed teams? I need to find a game that I can play with my new team to celebrate the completion of a project. I was thinking something like a collaborative version of jib jab (http://www.jibjab.com/). Does anyone know of any?
Hello, folks!
My name is Andry, Iโm software developer from the Eastern Europe.
Iโm trying switch to nomad-style lifestyle.
However, there is a problem: money. I definitely can work remote on sites like odesk/elance, and gain, say, $3000/month. Itโs enough for living, but itโs sounds not so good for my savings.
I assume, that Iโd need some money after that crazy life for the cozy life. 401k, if you know, what I mean.
As I see, most of you, mates, are from 1st world countries, such as USA or Canada or Australia, etc. So, you do have a choice - work remotely for companies from your countries, or try to do your own business. May be freelance is an option too, but I donโt see the way for me really to gain more than 3K on freelance. It requires really good manager skills, even more than software development skills.
I donโt have passion for the second option, and wonder about the first one.
Say, I want to work for USA company remotely. Do the right work, gain the right salary (even $70.000/year except taxes), so Iโll be able to do some savings. Iโm not USA citizen, and donโt have a H1B visa. Any options on that remote contract?
Saw propositions on nomadsjobs.io. Itโs definitely unclear for dudes like me. Some USA firm hires people, and yes, remote work is an option as they say in job description. Only for USA people however, I suppose?
Iโm totally newbie with that, sorry if that is a stupid question.
P.S.
Sorry about my english, I feel ashamed, and I do my best to improve it asap. I do hope youโll understand me btw, I believe.
