That's fantastic! Congrats! Even after 6 years in development, I still think it was the best choice.

congrats bro

I love this comment. Even I don't have kids but me and my wife are enjoying staying in places longer nowadays and you're right about possibilities. Good luck in Japan! I hope to visit it one day too.

Thank you!

Good luck with realization of the dream! I hope you'll enjoy it!

Amazing and good luck! It's totally worth it. I never regretted it once.

Agree! Good luck in Thailand. It's an amazing country!

Glad you enjoyed it!

You're so welcome!

Glad I could help! ☺️

Right? People are so centered on "normal" lifestyles, they're missing out on opportunities.

Hey! Thanks for watching! The only community I use is nomadlist.com. And it's the biggest and most vibrant one as well.

Hey Santiago! Happy to see another person striving towards this great lifestyle! It's a bit harder to find a proper remote job as a junior developer, but definitely possible. There are many "remote only" companies nowadays and they hire remotely everyone. It could be a bit easier to start from freelance but it could take more time to build a portfolio. I would suggest trying both and seeing which one suits you the best.

Hey! I wish you good luck with your journey and thank you for the warm words. I'd suggest watching another video about learning software engineering - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/idielbKCls61gp8.html. If you still have questions after it I'd gladly answer!

I think you should open your business in the other country where you don't need to maintain your address. There are Georgia, Estonia, the UK and many more. The taxes will probably be lower too.

Hey! I already have a video where I talk about how to learn to code, check it out here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/idielbKCls61gp8.html. Let me know if you still have questions after watching it!

Hey! Great to hear about another join the club! :) Yeah, I would say just create a portfolio with your pet projects and start applying for jobs that related to JS/React and maybe TS. Don't worry if you don't know everything, you'll pick up during the project. It could be discouraging at first but eventually you'll find the clients and start getting reviews and grow the portfolio. Good luck!

Hey! I would personally recommend nomadlist.com. I mostly use it for all my connections and meetups. Also, sometimes I just search on FB "Digital nomads " and join the most popular one.

Yeah, I usually just stay allowed number of days or apply for tourist visa and then do visa-run if it's allowed or move to another country.

I guess it depends on the person and the environment. I am 5x more productive at home because in the office there are colleagues. To me there is no bigger distraction than people 😂 It's hard to describe in one comment. But one think to helps me is having separate space in your apartment. Ideally, it could be cafe or coworking. Or it could be a small office room or even just a corner where you go to work. Also, what things are distracting you? Why the same things are not distracting you in the office? Maybe just put them away somewhere. Pomodoro and similar techniques are also helpful. Maybe the reason of unproductivity is the illness, not working from home? I don't work at all when I'm sick :)

Great question! The answer is definitely yes. Half of the nomads I met on the road working full time. I am currently also working part-time instead of freelancing which takes almost the same amount of time as a full time job. You just need to be more picky in terms of apartments (good internet, more or less good table or coworking nearby) and think about time zones and your schedule. But certainly possible, yes.

Hey! It's really depends on the person and how much time you want to spend on it. My very harsh estimation that you can learn programming for 3-4 months, spending about 2-3 hours per weekdays. But it's important that you like it. Otherwise it would be twice as hard.

Correct! No particular tips, just don't be scared to take the job where you're not 100% know everything. You can always find everything in google. Learn different skills that needed for freelance apart from programming - marketing, sales writing.

@@dpashutskii thanks :)

You absolutely don't need a college or university degree to work as programmer. 80% of people I know in the industry doesn't have it. I have never heard about employers requiring having degree. Do they tell you this on the interview? Because what said on job listings usually doesn't matter. Maybe it's some very specific scientific companies?

@@dpashutskii Thank you very much for your reply. Yes for the most part I am referring to what the job listing requirements say. I appreciate this information.

Hey Dr! I would say languages don't matter that much, you need to pick any of them and stick with it for some time. After you get the experience, changing languages is easy. You can just pick any popular language - Javascript, Python, C#, Ruby etc. You can check my other video about my thoughts on learning programming: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/idielbKCls61gp8.html

It's not too late! I still read and reply to all the comments just with a bit of a delay! ;) 1. You only pay taxes in the country where you're a tax resident. Which means you wouldn't pay any taxes in the US, only in the European country where you live. But your employer would pay the US taxes though. 2. When I was traveling, I was working for 20-25 hours per week. Daily hours were quite flexible. Some days I worked for 6-7 hours, some days 0. Right now I work 32 hours, but I am no longer a freelancer.

You mean full time? Technically yes, why not? You just need to make sure your contract don't forbid it. Practically it's quite hard and why would you need to do this? :)

Definitely not. I've met nomads in their 50s. Income is a different question though, it's not related to the age. It's better to have income before the start or savings.

It's for sure better to already have clients when you're starting. But it didn't stop me 😅

@@dpashutskii so how did you had the confidance to do so without any clients?

@@leeyahav4754 I just took a leap of faith :)
