From the beaches of Belize to the bodegas of New York City, the life of a digital nomad is a glamorous one. It’s also more expensive than you might think!
There’s a cost to constant travel, so you’ll want to be smart, frugal, and prepared for the non-filtered realities of working remotely around the world.
Here are just a few tips for saving money as a digital nomad:
Accumulate Some Savings
First things first…don’t quit your job to become a digital nomad until you have at least six months of savings in the bank.
You’ll need that money to support your adventures. What’s more, you never know when a freelancing gig will fall through or when you’ll have a major emergency purchase like a last-minute plane ticket or overseas hospital bill.
