What is your current situation? Why do you want to become a digital nomad? What are your motivations? What is driving you to take the plunge? And conversely, what scares you about this lifestyle? How do you want to operate? Which profession interests you the most?<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=kENtjKuMG_M<\/div>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The pros and cons of being a digital nomad<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The advantages include the ability to work anywhere in the world, the agility of the working pace and the ability to work in a team environment. <strong>independent management of your timetable<\/strong>. Working in countries with a lower cost of living also improves your quality of life. By travelling, you will also be able to meet new people and get to know them better. <strong>improve your interpersonal skills<\/strong> while expanding your professional network.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On the downside, there is a widespread feeling of loneliness expressed by many digital nomads. Added to this is a lack of social contacts due to the absence of friends or work colleagues. What's more, the fact that you have to travel a lot can be a hindrance to long-term encounters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Being a digital nomad<\/strong>It also means taking the risk of not having a fixed, stable income. Assignments are often one-offs and not very long-term. Of course, this depends on the contracts and the type of work involved.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Digital nomad: 4 tips to consider<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Knowing how to organise your working time<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When you are <strong>digital nomad<\/strong>If you're in the area, it's hard to resist the temptation of the surrounding tourist activities... We can only advise you to <strong>allocate your working time<\/strong> and <strong>your leisure time<\/strong>. Organise your mornings to deal with urgent emails and appointments. Then set aside the early afternoon for your longer tasks. Then free yourself up in the middle of the afternoon to go about your leisure activities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Also, if you manage to be productive over a 4-day week, this could be a good way of topping up your time off.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Working in good conditions<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If the destination allows it, try to find yourself <strong>shared office space<\/strong>These are easily accessible coworking spaces that provide a studious working environment with your own computer. You increase your chances of meeting new colleagues and improving your professional network.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-66130\" src=\"https:\/\/activebase.store\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Photo-article-23-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>And don't neglect your work chairs. Who says <strong>digital nomad<\/strong>Working in a chair doesn't mean working in a caf\u00e9 chair, a hammock or a hotel bed. There are ergonomic chairs, like the ActiveBase, that can be easily transported and dismantled to take with you wherever you travel. For the<a href=\"https:\/\/activebase.store\/en\/tabouret-ergonomique-a-assise-dynamique\/\">ActiveBase<\/a>At just 2 kilos, it's a great feature when you need to keep an eye on the weight of each piece of luggage when travelling between several destinations. By taking this <strong>ergonomic seating solution<\/strong>you <strong>improve your working conditions<\/strong> and reduce your back pain.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don't neglect your accounting<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It is recommended that particular attention be paid to <strong>managing your budget<\/strong> when you adopt the lifestyle of a digital nomad. Don't let yourself be carried away by hasty spending. Whether your income is fixed or more random. Without the framework of a fairly sedentary lifestyle, it's easy to lose your footing in your day-to-day spending. Depending on your income, try to set yourself a ceiling for outgoings, divided between your basic needs and your entertainment and leisure activities. This way, you'll be more secure when faced with a drop in income, for example. By managing your budget to the penny, you'll also be able to feel more at ease financially on your days off if you feel the need.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\">Think carefully about your destination<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>When you're a digital nomad<\/strong>, you may be tempted to practise anywhere in the world. But remember that you only need one thing to work: <strong>an Internet connection<\/strong>. And even so, in 2022, access to the Internet is becoming easier all over the world. There may well be destinations where network worries can put a brake on your work productivity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the event of loss of wifi access, make sure you have a back-up device with a subscription to a 5G key, for example. This type of tool can be taken anywhere and makes it easier to cope with potential network breakdowns.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Depuis la crise sanitaire, l\u2019essor du t\u00e9l\u00e9travail a consid\u00e9rablement accentu\u00e9 la lanc\u00e9e des t\u00e9l\u00e9travailleurs et freelance qui lient voyage et gestion de leur activit\u00e9 professionnelle en ligne.
