Episode description

Digital nomad-ism is exploding, with new workers leaving the office every day in favor of traveling the world and working from the road. While digital nomad-ism was already growing at a rapid rate, the pandemic kicked the movement into second gear.

With the massive increase in travelers, we are seeing an unexpected number of positive and negative outcomes. Jeff and Diego share some current statistics along with real-world trends developing that they are seeing on the ground.

Jeff and Diego tackle some some particularly tricky topics, including:

  • Trends in hiring remote workers.
  • How both employees and employers' way of thinking about the workplace is evolving (and sometimes not evolving).
  • Predictions on how and why digital nomad hubs are going to pop up.
  • The impact on local economies and how to make investment in small businesses.
  • The impact on local housing markets and how to make conscientious decisions.
  • The expansion of digital nomad visas.
  • Upcoming technological advancements.

And much much more.

While we can't say for certain what is going to happen next in this quickly changing world, we can say for sure that the number of digital nomads is going to continue increasing at a rapid rate.
