What Does The Nomad Lifestyle Look Like?

Is Nomad Worth It and How to Become Nomadic?

     Have you ever dreamed of becoming a world traveler? This article covers what no one tells you about transitioning to a nomadic lifestyle, and how to make it your reality.

After "Nomad land" won the Oscars, the theme of nomadism came under the spotlight. In 12 months when so many people are staying at home, it's interesting to see the torch illuminate a unique way of life that doesn't involve 4 walls and constant addresses – something that usually dominates collective consciousness and media headlines.

What Is A Nomad Life?

The short answer: anything and all you want. There is not always a surefire way to define a nomadic lifestyle or how to become a digital nomad.

Don't let anyone tell you what nomadic life is like. This is exactly what you need it to be. You can stay somewhere and work from your home office or just move from one country to another as long as you have access to the web and can do your job. Considering recent events, more humans are starting to work remotely and it is clear that soon companies will understand that there is no need for offices. People will be able to work from home and travel the world while completing their assignments. This modern nomadic life can be molded into something according to your individual needs.

Nomad Lifestyle Jobs

Some will start their nomadic lifestyle with a pocket full of benefits, a trust fund – the list goes on. You will meet people from all walks of life while you travel, which is one of the great gifts that the nomadic lifestyle offers us.

Freelancer

Freelancer refers to anyone who basically takes a gig here and there. It also means that he works for other humans while maintaining some variety of freedom.

The downside of freelance work is having to find clients, especially if your customer needs a one-off item.

Examples: Graphic designers, content writers, copywriters, etc.

Freelancers make money with the gigs they own. It's impossible to fix unless they have a regular client. That said, the customer pays them for the portion made or by the hour. Some freelancers have retainer programs that can give them a better idea of how much they can make in the following months. Although, until they have a contract, it can be very volatile. That said, you can expect anything from nothing to thousands of dollars a month.

The Remote Worker

A remote worker is anyone who has a role in a company but has the right to do it remotely. That said, the remote worker may have to take care of Skype calls and meetings while he's away.

It's basically having a job with a specific number of hours and doing it remotely. If you educate your language online, you may be able to set your own agenda.

For example: Software engineer, digital marketer, English teacher, etc.

Remote workers make easy money with their remote positions. They may have a steady income including duties and hours worked, and they are paid for by the organization that employs them. Earnings can be similar to a 9-5 job (or more) depending on the number of hours worked and skills. Typically, a software program engineer can earn over a hundred dollars a day.

The three mind-set shifts to create a nomadic life-style you love

1. To Own the unknown, you have to BECOME THE unknown first

You cannot create new facts while they are still within your historical patterns.

You must discard historical patterns to create space for new ones. In the end, you have to become a new reality, and still perform the act of that actuality before you can actually manifest it in your body space.

When you choose to maintain an unscripted lifestyle, you must first stretch yourself to be healthy into a big container. And, while the time between being uncomfortable and scary and you can be easily swept away by the flow of worry-prone and limited thinking, you have to trust your system and your ability to thrive.

Respect and trust your process, and lay down on the magic of life.

2.  Gratitude is the best force for attracting new opportunities

It's very useful to get carried away and distracted, and no longer take the time to merge with yourself and anchor lower to your internal voice and purpose.

I have now integrated 30 minutes of yoga and 30 minutes of meditation into my morning activities to make sure I don't lose touch with my guiding intentions and what keeps me grounded.

3. Emotions are symptoms - admire them

With all the highs come all the lows, and the journey will bring them to the fore. Traveling can be tiring, scary, and quite uncertain, and you analyze to keep up with the moment and hold on to your hopes in the test when things don't go according to plan, or disappointment sets in.

Being okay with all kinds of thoughts is necessary in order to really feel what you are going through and live it.

Summary

The modern nomad has much to learn from the origins of the nomadic lifestyle.

There is a clear and immediate conclusion drawn from the perception of the nomadic way of life for today's nomads: the core of today's nomadic lifestyle *must* be moral tourism.

If you are going to pursue a nomadic lifestyle for yourself, try to be a sustainable traveler and actively reduce damage to the human and ecological communities you visit.
