Welcome back to the Realistic Backpackers Podcast, where Abi kicks us off with a very exciting story… if you managed to continue listening, well done!  This week’s topic is Digital Nomad Life. Abi has been a Digital Nomad for 2.5 years and Shireen for 18 months, and they have a wealth of knowledge to share.  The girls get into some honest conversations about making friends, backpacking while working and how the way they want to travel in the future is going to change.  Sharing their tips for both finding work to do while travelling, how to set yourself up to be as successful as possible, and their favourite Digital Nomad hubs (Spain, Portugal, Mexico, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand). As always, wrapping up with a chaotic story. This week they’re in Malaysia, ab sailing down a building site and getting a hickey from a leech.  Helpful Links: Connect on Instagram:  Shireen: ⁠@shireenaroundtheworld_⁠ ;   For all things Digital Nomad: @aroundtheworldvirtual Abi: ⁠@abi_chapman⁠  Connect on TikTok: ⁠@therealisticbackpackers
