The world is your oyster, especially as you now have the opportunity to work and travel the world. You have the chance to take in new surroundings, new cultures, and even new ways of life – should you wish to. However, to turn this opportunity into reality, you have to transform yourself into a digital nomad. To succeed as a nomad, you have to be prepared to be versatile and able to work virtually anywhere. So, do you have what it takes, and what lifestyle considerations do you need to think about?

What Work Will You Do
Do you have a transferable skill or hobby that you can turn into a job? Or, are you looking at doing something completely different? Work and roles for digital nomads can be competitive, especially when you are starting out and building a reputation. So, what are you going to do or offer to differentiate yourself? When you know what work you will do, you have a good starting point to work from.
Working on the Go
Whether you are hosting or attending a virtual meeting or you are holding a workshop, you need to ensure that you can work flexibly anywhere you go. To ensure that you are successful at working on the go, you have to prepare a toolkit or survival kit. Everything within this kit will be useful and necessary to your work, and you must ensure you have it at all times. When you have this kit with you, you can be sure that you are always able to work on the go at any time.
Thinking About Where You Are Heading
After establishing what you are going to do and how you will stay connected, you then have to think about where you want to head. Are you going to start off by hopping around states, or would you like to go a little bit further afield? Digital nomads can work anywhere that has good cell phone connectivity and a stable internet connection, but where would you like to be? Do you want to be near the beach, or are the city lights calling you?
How Long You Will Stay For
Once you have established just where you want to start off your journey, you then have to decide how long you will stay. There may, of course, be visa restrictions and time limit restrictions you have to take into consideration (so be aware of these on entry). You may want to move on after a few weeks, or you might want to stay for a few months. What is important to you in a location is something that you need to be thinking about when trying out new destinations.
Visas and Entry Requirements
If you are planning on moving regularly, you have to ensure that you have the right to enter a country and work freely. Some countries offer digital nomad visas, and some offer extended visas. It is always worth checking with your consulate or with a local embassy to ensure that you adhere to all rules and regulations.
Having a Daily Spend or Budget
To fully thrive in an area, you have to enjoy the area as local people do. Having a daily spend or budget may sound tedious, but having one in place will allow you to keep your dream of nomadic working alive and sustainable for as long as you want.
