The word ‘Nomad’ refers to people who do not have a fixed home. Traditionally, Nomads wandered from place to place, making a living by trading skills and goods.
With the rise of the Digital Nomads, the nomadic lifestyle is, once again, popular.
Digital Nomads are people who make a living by working remotely or freelancing, often while traveling. Modern remote working technology is a significant enabler for the rise of this lifestyle.
Most digital nomads make money online, running their businesses, blogging, or using their skills to work as freelancers. Some are even able to support their nomadic lifestyle with passive income.
