Are you spending 1-2 hours every evening scrolling on your phone or watching TV?
What if you could spend that exact same time on your laptop and make money to cover your groceries, gas, or a weekend getaway?

Hello everyone! I'm Gianpy, a 21 y.o. e-commerce entrepreneur from Italy.

I'm not a nomad yet, but I joined this group to finally take the leap.
I'm still choosing the destination and since it will be my first remote-work trip, my only goal is to avoid isolating myself and find the right vibe.

I'd love to connect with some of you, get some tips, and maybe organize a shared something togheter.

Nice to meet you all!

hey, anyone in NZ with a working holiday visa?

Yesss! Can do it here nomads.com/meetups

Hi Janaka thanks for the ping, no I did not yet, I’m headed on 28oct. I have sent you a DM

Hey I’m moving full time to SF on Monday from the UK!!

Love this. How much do you pay him?

The redesign is so bad.

Nomad Table
Pangea
TripBFF

Looking for a 1 person flat in Chiang Mai. Hit me up if you have something

Hey does anyone know good sauna plus ice bath close to shopping del Sol (no gay sauna)

TIA

Salento in very recommended!

It's okay to be gay bro

Paraguay changes people

i see
do you know of any alternatives?

Hahahahahah

Yeah, Salento was nice. I had a beautiful view on the mountains from my place

Extremely easy

I already mentioned them. Scroll up

idk nothing feels conversationally engaging here. I have the other two platforms but didn't know this group was on them, and also I've barely said anything in here for an entire year

Slack days were better for sure

Buenos dias chic@s, there is a good chance I'll be coming to CDMX very soon. I've never been there and I've heard conflicting things on what the prices are like there, and I'm trying to budget (obv I can find what the prices of AirBnBs and hotels are, but I don't know about the rest of my living expenses). For those of you with recent experience in CDMX and also in South America, how would you say the prices compare to Buenos Aires or São Paulo? Or for a comparison with somewhere nearer, San José, Costa Rica?

Welcome!

I am currently in Buenos Aires and was in CDMX for over a month last month. Prices are comparatively same, with CDMX being expensive of the two. Buenos Aires should not be expensive but it is for the quality of the apartments. I am going to Rio next in a month so would start looking at AirBnBs in a few weeks. Buenos Aires has gone very expensive for other things like cafes, eating outside, buying imported things that you might accidentally need during your stay here. But, any day I will prefer Buenos Aires over CDMX over life in general.

Interesting, so you’re saying other than for rent, CDMX seems cheaper? That’s actually quite reassuring for me to hear.

I heard that a Chinese SIM card doesn't even allow you to register on Telegram.

Avoiding taxes 🙃

Which laws have become much stricter this year? I can only find about similar issues like these 2 since October.

Interestingly I think that the popularity of nomading make some challenges for a community setup like this.

In hotspots like Chiang Mai for example, there are multiple large WhatsApp communities that hit their group chat size limits every few months and then roll a brand new group chat.

Individual geoup chats with more posts than all of Nomad List Telegram today.

When I was a baby nomad, a meetup through nomadlist was the best way to find the weird group of like minded remote working people visiting the same place to have a dinner and a drink. All the digital nomads could just go to one event on a Thursday night.

Now, individual cities have groups and sub groups by topic, by interest, by gender, by language, and just being a meetup for nomads isn't specific enough.

Just an observation.

Yes I think this is a great point. Nomading went mainstream, so just being a nomad isn't an identity anymore, everyone is

Slack cost me $20,000/mo back then so I had to cancel it, I like Telegram but I agree it's not optimal

I think moving to an iOS/Android app with chat + web chat is probably good

Hi... is there any prop trader among you? I'll be moving in November and would love to exchange views / discuss with you

Hey Gianpy! Bruno here from Chile, with an extensive ecommerce background.

You can also setup a chat section on the site or create an app

No

Anyone in Lagos? :)

Yes exactly, vibe coding Slack now is easy, I have nomads.com/chat already but will make it features same as Slack

Wow the founder of nomads, Hello!

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm planning to spend about six months in Argentina starting in November, but I'm still quite undecided about where to stay.

My priorities are beautiful nature, water (ideally lakes for swimming), good training facilities (martial arts, gym), and a relatively affordable cost of living.

From what I've researched so far, the Córdoba region, perhaps Villa Carlos Paz, seems like a good fit.

Or is Mendoza more scenic? Are there any beautiful lakes around Mendoza where you can actually swim?

I'd love to hear your personal experiences and recommendations. I'm also happy to connect with other nomads or join meetups! 😊

I'm from Germany. 🇩🇪

In my personal expirience, mendoza was one of the best places I’ve stayed at. Scenic, nature, welcoming people, ability to move by bicycle (old railway converted into the bike line even going up into the mountains). that was in 2020

My favorite area was around Bariloche and San Martin de los Andes. Biked all around the lake at Bariloche and great hiking around San Martin. Mendoza area was fun with all the wine and olive oil, if you are into wine which I am. Not sure about which lakes you can actually swim in, it would depend a lot on the season.

I love Mendoza a lot more than Cordoba. It has more small town vibes, and personally I prefer the Andes mountains than the hills in Cordoba. There’s a nice reservoir near Mendoza where you can swim, do SUP, there are cool rivers and streams, and there are several nice hiking trails in the area. Plus you can cross over to Chile, Valparaiso is worth a visit.
