As a digital nomad and internet entrepreneur I love talking about the intersection of location independence, taxes, residence status, visas, and more. One thing that often comes up in these discussions is how the world just isn’t ready for us. Try telling an immigration officer that you “work online” and ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/estonia-eresidency-digital-nomads/feed/ 1 https://bkpk.me/a-life-of-travel-an-end-of-the-year-reflection/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=a-life-of-travel-an-end-of-the-year-reflection https://bkpk.me/a-life-of-travel-an-end-of-the-year-reflection/#comments Thu, 31 Dec 2015 08:09:22 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=16870
A few days ago we were enjoying dinner out. Talking with a family friend, we were asked what we do for a living. It’s never pleasant to answer this question. Not because of the reply per se but, because more often than not, this moment is followed by comments such ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/a-life-of-travel-an-end-of-the-year-reflection/feed/ 17 https://bkpk.me/the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam https://bkpk.me/the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam/#comments Mon, 27 Oct 2014 18:07:39 +0000 Andrea Anastasiou http://bkpk.me/?p=14025
Any digital nomad will know the importance of three things: a good cup of coffee, a fast WiFi connection, and comfortable sofas (bums get sore after a few hours!). Earlier this year, we spent two months in Vietnam, eating, slurping and working our way around the country. Whenever we based ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/the-best-digital-nomad-spaces-in-vietnam/feed/ 24 https://bkpk.me/most-popular-articles-of-2013/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=most-popular-articles-of-2013 https://bkpk.me/most-popular-articles-of-2013/#comments Sat, 21 Dec 2013 14:07:20 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=10568
Following the tradition we started last year when we published the 12 Most Popular Posts of 2012, the end of this year calls for a recap of what’s been happening here on Backpack ME.

Believe it or not, people who travel all the time like us, need vacations too! Traveling doesn’t mean lying on the beach all day, sightseeing all the time and live worry-free like kids – I wish! During the past few weeks we have spent a lot of time in Thailand ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/a-vacation-from-travel/feed/ 7 https://bkpk.me/i-became-a-digital-nomad-it-has-its-challenges-but-its-worth-it/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=i-became-a-digital-nomad-it-has-its-challenges-but-its-worth-it https://bkpk.me/i-became-a-digital-nomad-it-has-its-challenges-but-its-worth-it/#comments Sun, 15 Sep 2013 15:19:20 +0000 Ashray http://bkpk.me/?p=9519
I just came upon a really interesting piece by Alex Pszczolkowski. He thought he wanted to become a digital nomad, but really didn’t. Alex brought up some really interesting points about why ‘Digital Nomadry’ does not work for him. The crux of the matter pretty much boils down to: “Can’t ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/i-became-a-digital-nomad-it-has-its-challenges-but-its-worth-it/feed/ 31 https://bkpk.me/change-your-mind-quit-your-job-and-move-forward/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=change-your-mind-quit-your-job-and-move-forward https://bkpk.me/change-your-mind-quit-your-job-and-move-forward/#comments Wed, 11 Apr 2012 04:33:07 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=1857
On a recent bus trip, there were few seats available and so I didn’t manage to sit next to Ashray.
