Say hello here! šŸ‘‹

This is the place to introduce yourself, whether youā€™re new to this lifestyle or a seasoned member. Feel free to share a bit about yourself ā€” your professionšŸ§³, your current locationšŸŒ, or what brought you to become a nomadāœØ

Got something on your mind that doesnā€™t quite fit into the other categories? This is the spot for those off-topic chats and spontaneous discussions. From travel stories to random thoughts, letā€™s keep the conversation flowing!

Iā€™ll go first!

Hi everyone, Iā€™m Luca, one of the Co-founders at Freaking Nomads :smile: Iā€™ve been living the nomadic lifestyle since the 2021 pandemic, exploring the world while building a platform that connects and supports digital nomads like you.

Some of my favorite places so far include:

  • Koh Lanta :beach_umbrella:
  • Da Nang :city_sunset:
  • Puerto Escondido :man_surfing:
  • Bansko :national_park:

When Iā€™m not on the move or working on Freaking Nomads, youā€™ll often find me reading, and one book that has truly inspired me is The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferris (such a classic, right?)

Hey everyone! Iā€™m Irene Lidia, the other half of the Freaking Nomads co-founding duo! Iā€™m the one whoā€™s always telling Luca that we could add even more hot pink to our website and social mediaā€”because why not make it even more Freaking Nomads? :smile:

Currently, Iā€™m soaking up the sun in beautiful Cape Verde, but my digital nomad journey has taken me to some amazing places. A few of my favorites are:

  • Weligama, Sri Lanka :surfing_woman:
  • Chiang Mai, Thailand :national_park:
  • San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua :sunrise:

I decided to become a digital nomad because I wanted to explore the world without having to wait for the holidays to take a trip. Canā€™t wait to connect with all of you!

Hey everyone, Cade here! Iā€™m just starting out on this digital nomad journey, trying to figure out how to break free and live a life that feels more like my own. I donā€™t have a ton of experience yet, but Iā€™m eager to learn and excited to connect with others who are on a similar path. Iā€™m really looking forward to meeting you all and hearing your stories as we navigate this lifestyle together!

Hi @besideat ā€”thanks for joining the community! :star_struck:

Hi Everyone,

I just found this site and signed up. My name is Jordan, and been living in Jamaica for 1.5 years. However, starting March this year, I embarked on a 8-9 month digital nomad trip around S. America. Unknowingly to me, Buenos Aires and Brazil captured my heart. Iā€™m moving to Buenos Aires for 2.5 months starting March of 2025, and then fully to Rio, Brazil starting May.

I currently work as a freight forwarder for our familyā€™s Freight Forwarding & Customs Brokerage company, bases out of LA.

I look forward to connecting with people hereā€¦All the best.

Hello everyone!

Iā€™m very happy to join this community. Iā€™m from Spain although I left my job 1.5 years ago and started traveling through Latam. I am currently studying a masters in Singapore while traveling around Southeast Asia, and thinking about starting my next job as digital nomad while staying around this region :slight_smile:

Nice to meet you all

Hi everyone, my name is Job, from the Netherlands. I am going to Weligama Sri Lanka to start working as an online psychologist in about two weeks, so I am very excited and looking for like minded people and helpful information:)
After 2 backpacktrips (central Asia, south east Asia and Australia) this is going to be the first time I bring my work with me.
I do have a question about tech! So i guess i will open up a topic over there;)
Hope to see you around!

Hi @JvdL - Great to have you here! Yes, absolutely! Feel free to post your question so that the community can answer. You can post you question about tech in the dedicatet section here: šŸŽ’ Tech & Gear - Community Forum for Digital Nomads - Freaking Nomads :smiley:

Hi all I just became a member of this site and made my first post under the home swap sub forum. Any answers appreciated

Weā€™re considering home swap as a way to have cost effective travel but there are so (to?) many sites offering that service now that assume I know where I want to go!

Hey everyone! :wave:

Iā€™m Pat, a freelance writer and content strategist whoā€™s been on the road as a digital nomad for the past two years. Right now, Iā€™m based in Lisbon, Portugal!

Becoming a nomad was a mix of curiosity and the need for a change. After years of working a regular 9-to-5, I realized I wanted more freedom to explore the world while doing work Iā€™m passionate about.

Excited to connect with you allšŸ˜Š

Hey @xlinknz and @JustPatricia , welcome to the Freaking Nomads forum! :tada:

@xlinknz : Home swapping is such a cool way to travel affordably, and youā€™re definitely in the right place to get advice. Glad to see your thread has already taken off! :blush:
