We’re living in the digital dystopia and all that we, working travelers, want to do now is TRAVEL. We’re currently seeing the rise of digital nomad visas worldwide as well as entrenched communities of remote workers and ex-pats settle in hotspots and hubs across the globe. Many destinations are hoping the remote work visas will generate income to help make up for lost tourism revenue due to the pandemic but laws in most countries are not set up to deal with this new class of modern nomads who are living and working remotely around the world. And that’s where Dave Williams comes in.

Dave, a serial digital entrepreneur, is on a mission to revolutionize the way remote work travelers, or “Digital Nomads”, live, work, and travel the world. He joins our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski in this episode of The New Nomad to tackle the challenges when it comes to digital nomad accommodations and all that nitty-gritty. Our three travelers also shared their travel experiences and some really useful tips for both new and seasoned nomads. This is an episode you surely don’t want to miss.
