Untethered
Exisle Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-922539-69-4 (ISBN)
The dream of being a digital nomad has inspired many to quit their jobs and attempt to live a life that is global and free of the daily 9 to 5 grind. To travel to exotic lands, meet interesting people, and enjoy limitless adventure ― all while earning money from a few strokes of the keypad. But many find themselves frustrated in pursuit of this dream.
The realities of a digital nomad life are far from simple, and with the pandemic of 2020 and ongoing global uncertainty, the complexities of life on the road have become even more challenging to navigate. Yet with these challenges have come opportunities: remote work is no longer an exception, but a very real option within reach of many of us. With more and more businesses being started and with corporations having a seemingly endless appetite for new talent, the opportunities for workers to establish themselves as digital nomads are abundant.
In Untethered you'll learn exactly what it takes to engineer a digital nomad lifestyle in a post-pandemic world. With travel stories and case studies interlaced with clear, real-world guidance, you'll discover whether the digital nomad lifestyle is for you and equip yourself with the tools to create your own location-independent life.
Nathan James Thomas, originally from New Zealand, bought a ticket for 20,000 kilometres on the Greyhound Bus network in Australia when he was 17 years old. Over the next decade he lived in China, Spain, Poland, and Hungary, visiting and experiencing dozens of other countries along the way. In 2014, Nathan founded the digital travel magazine Intrepid Times as a vehicle for sharing stories from the road and as an excuse to meet and interview his favourite writers. It has since grown into a thriving global community of thousands of writers and travellers. Nathan's own travel writing has been published in places like Roads and Kingdoms and Outpost Magazine. With his two previous Exisle Publishing titles, Fearless Footsteps and Travel Your Way, Nathan presents a vision of travel that is both challenging and humbling, an experience not of finding yourself, but of losing yourself and becoming immersed in the places where you find yourself.
