Okay let me preface, the trip was absolutely perspective shifting. I did all I wanted to do and more. I didn’t miss one day of work. Met cool people, even had a romance. And while everything wasn’t perfect all the time I still generally very much enjoyed my experience. However I also realized how much I love and appreciate my home. See I decided to take a chance on this nomad style because I felt I was lacking and missing out in life. I thought maybe if I could travel the world like all the nomad bros on instagram I’d feel more fulfilled. I felt jealous of the beautiful vids and pics of people who lived the nomad lifestyle and convinced myself that what I was missing in life. So I did my research and went to Mexico and stayed on the beach. Tbh it really was a life changing experience. This trip changed my perspective on the world, work, life and the people around me. However, I also had to be honest with myself and understand two things can be true at once. Just because you are having a good time doesn’t mean you wouldn’t rather be somewhere else. I realized I don’t need to travel the world to find what is already inside of me. Definitely still plan to travel now and again though! Thank you all for all the information and insightfulness this community has provided to help aide this journey of mine ❤️
Indians don’t plan to stay forever like you say, they live on top of each other. Smart money are leaving these countries to place their businesses offshore and geo-arbitrage in fantastic locations that are more lifestyle orientated and tax friendly. Anything that is a descendent of the UK is commonwealth related. But US is of course it’s own entity. US is also a sinking ship due to collectivist ideologies (cultural Marxism, wokeism etc). Australia is a prison colony with no innovation or positive momentum. We can roast the 50% of retards with no money there, but it’s a nation that ideally could be the richest on earth with its resource rich land, but tyrants at the top control it! I could go on and on about how bad Australia is but I ultimately don’t care where it ends up, as I’ve jumped the sinking ship!
Be my guest. 50% of people don’t even have 1k in their accounts. To afford a home in a big city one needs to be earning north of 200k PA. It’s one of the most expensive places on earth, highest taxes, woke cesspit, unsafe, backwards, horrible infrastructure, political nightmare and so forth. People wanting to move to commonwealth countries (UK, Canada, US, Aus, NZ etc.) are just ill-informed and are not financially literate. These are declining nations, in which smart money is leaving at a rapid rate. The whole point of digital nomading is to improve your lifestyle, geo-arbitrage and to ensure your dollar goes further. Australia is the complete opposite of that thesis

Can vouch for what you’re saying. Aus makes you feel like you’re living with a ball and chain attached to your leg on a prison island given the cost and set of rules. Tax tax tax and more tax. Hence why everyone is cash poor. The grass IS greener depending where you go!
