A digital nomad job is one that you can do from anywhere while traveling. Here are five examples of the main ways that digital nomads make a living: Remote employment: being a salaried part-time or full-time employee Freelancing: doing independent, contract work for other people or companies Online business: any type of business you can do on the Internet, from starting a small business to building a large company or founding a startup Passive income: living on income from investments or automated income streams Multiple income streams: a hybrid model in which you combine two or more jobs to generate multiple revenue streams The average person spends 90,000 hours of their life working.

At a basic level, a digital nomad is someone who can work from anywhere using the Internet or other technology. Not all nomads work, however. Some live on income from pensions, investments, and other recurring revenue streams they can access remotely.Digital technology has all but erased borders for business and communication.

I believe that the digital nomad lifestyle can be right for everyone. After all, who doesn’t want the ability to do what they want, when they want? A better question might be to ask yourself how nomadic you want to be and for how long. ©Hannah Wei / Unsplash.comBecoming a digital nomad doesn’t need to be an extreme decision where you quit your job, sell your stuff, and book a ticket to Bali the same day.
