I gave up my $2,100 apartment in Los Angeles and have been living as a digital nomad for 4 months. There are 4 major lessons I've learned along the way.
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Daniel Ferrer, a 37-year-old Los Angeles native turned digital nomad. It has been edited for length and clarity.
Throughout my travels, I'm been working full-time as a customer success manager at a software company based in Los Angeles. Since my team has been fully remote since the pandemic began, it was as simple as giving my supervisor a heads up that I'd start working from outside the US. When he saw, via Instagram, that I was in Europe two months later, he told me:"Hey, I'm going to be in Pamplona for the Bull Run. Come meet up if you want to."Social media, and Instagram in particular, has been a critical part of my travels.
