Ask HN: Has anyone lived as a nomadic software developer?

Hello,

This year I took a trip to Europe and really loved it. I got such a thrill from visiting new cities and learning about their culture. I only spent maybe 3 days per city, but I would love to spend more like a few weeks per city/area. I'm wondering with the rise of remote work, is it possible to do this for the medium-term (I'm talking 1 to 1.5 year(s)). Has anyone lived a nomadic lifestyle like this? How did it pan out? What type of work did you do to support yourself?

Cheers!



I did, for about six years. Lots of people do it. See nomadlist.io, Google for "digital nomad." I wrote about my experience here:
