I did it for four years. Like everything, there’s pros and cons. I really enjoyed it overall!

Cost of living and a good internet connection are seriously cheap in SE Asia. If you’ve got a marketable skill set (coding, GMAT/SAT tutoring etc.) and are willing to move - sure, why not?

That said, you probably won’t be flying business or staying at plush hotels like an influencer / IG model.

What did you live on? Just curious. Or a good place to read more?

Yep — I mean, I used my nomadism to bounce between several major American cities to spend more time with friends and family. Totally awesome.

Sure — just spent time in several cities, working by day and seeing friends and family in those cities in off time.

Like, I probably wouldn’t take a vacation just to see a cousin in Portland, but being a nomad made that really easy.

Discovered major pay difference between myself and two new male hires with equal experience. Asked for a raise and was shot down due to Covid and essentially told they make more (were talking a 30k) bc they don’t have my “other responsibilities” aKa my two kids. I know my productivity is effected by parental responsibility but I don’t feel that alone justifies the difference. I know our billable output isn’t drastically different. Not sure what my next steps should be and welcome any advice.

Our baby is due soon so we’ve made the decision that we will only have visits from vaccinated family members (not realizing it would be an issue) only to find out that my Dad will never be getting vaccinated, planned to lie about it AND asked other family members lie to us about his vaccination status too… when we found out and asked him about it, he started to FREAK out. Now I’m questioning if we’re being unreasonable… how have you guys been handling unvaccinated people meeting your newborns??

Anyone have a great tactical brief template?
