Sarah Kelsey from the OneUp Project shares the highs and lows of digital nomad life, and how she uses house sitting to make the dream a reality. The idea of taking off to see the world, but still getting to have a career, is an enticing one, and that’s the obvious appeal behind the idea of becoming a digital nomad.  If so many people can work from home, then why can’t you also work from anywhere but home?  Travel is made easier with money to fund it, and if you’re able to keep working remotely, that’s one big tick to help you out. Another smart tactic is to cut your costs, such as by finding free accommodation by house sitting. The digital nomad world is, however, often full of hype, with only whispers about how hard it can be in reality. That’s not what we do here though… Today, it’s a conversation with someone who’s making this dream a reality, but is also more than willing to share both the highs and the lows of the journey.  Like being surrounded by friendly alpacas one minute, and the next, feeling horribly alone without friends and family. So how strategic do you need to get to pull off the digital nomad life, and how do you improve the odds of actually being successful?  Links Follow Frances Cook on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, or join the Money Memo newsletter for a free weekly money tip in your inbox each week.
