I Lived for 30 Days with a Digital Nomad Community @wifiartists
In this increasingly interconnected world, the concept of a “digital nomad” has gained significant traction. A digital nomad is someone who uses technology to work remotely while traveling the world. These individuals have found a way to break free from the traditional 9-to-5 office routine and embrace a location-independent lifestyle.
Curious about this lifestyle, I recently embarked on a 30-day adventure with a digital nomad community called @wifiartists. The community, founded by a group of like-minded individuals, aims to create a supportive network for digital nomads across the globe.
My journey began in Bali, Indonesia, where I joined the community in their shared co-living space. As soon as I walked through the door, I was greeted by a warm and vibrant atmosphere. People from all walks of life, each with their unique stories and backgrounds, immersed themselves in a world of creativity and innovation.
The community was a melting pot of cultures, with participants hailing from different corners of the world. It was truly inspiring to witness the diversity of ideas and perspectives being shared. From software engineers to graphic designers, writers to photographers, this community was a perfect blend of creativity and entrepreneurship.
What struck me the most about living with the @wifiartists community was the emphasis on personal growth and learning. They organized weekly workshops and skill-sharing sessions, allowing everyone to acquire new skills and expand their knowledge. From coding to marketing, there was never a shortage of learning opportunities.
Another aspect that set this community apart was their commitment to social impact. Each month, the community would collectively choose a charitable cause or project to support. It was immensely gratifying to witness their dedication to making a positive change in the world beyond their own personal goals.
But it wasn’t all work and no play. The @wifiartists community knew how to balance work and leisure. Regular group outings, beach cleanups, and cultural excursions were a way to unwind and connect with each other outside of work.
Living with a digital nomad community also opened my eyes to the challenges these individuals face. While the flexibility and freedom of working remotely are undoubtedly appealing, it comes with its own set of obstacles. Maintaining a work-life balance, staying motivated, and dealing with the occasional isolation can be challenging.
Despite these challenges, the sense of community within @wifiartists was striking. People genuinely supported and helped each other, whether by offering advice, collaborating on projects, or simply being a listening ear during difficult times. This camaraderie brought a sense of unity that I found rare in traditional office environments.
As my 30-day journey came to an end, I left the @wifiartists community with a newfound appreciation for the digital nomad lifestyle. It is undoubtedly a unique and exciting way to live and work. However, I also recognized that it is not without its hurdles.
Living with @wifiartists allowed me to witness the possibilities of a flexible work-life balance while being part of a supportive community. It opened my eyes to the potential for personal growth and creating a meaningful impact on the world.
For anyone interested in exploring the digital nomad lifestyle, I would highly recommend immersing oneself in a community like @wifiartists. It provides the perfect platform to connect with like-minded individuals, learn new skills, and experience the highs and lows of this unconventional, yet rewarding lifestyle.

this was great, nomad capotal should watch it 🙂 🙂
What I love about your content is that you never put mutton in dad's sandwiches on lamb day.
Respect and much love brother.
Call you, don’t call you… which one is it, Rad? Why are you toying with my feelings like this?
Seriously, I‘m such a loner, that programme sounds like the perfect opportunity to offend people when I never hang out with anyone…
Why is YouTube not letting me know you uploaded? I will be binging later.
About the workspaces: Are there always some places:
1. Which are equipped with 2 (or 3) big screens?
2. That have height-adjustable desks?
3. Are suitable for long calls (without disturbing others or being disturbed by others)?
4. Which have all of the things mentioned before at the same place?
Thanks very inormative.
I have to say that your hat is awful
Digitales Nomadentum ist eigentlich der Inbegriff von Unabhängigkeit und Freiheit und dieses Programm schafft es das irgendwie wieder spießig zu machen wtf xD organisiert wie eine Klassenfahrt, das Gegenteil von dem, was Reisen ausmacht. Das Tolle daran, ein Reisender zu sein, ist doch dass man frei ist hinzugehen wo man will, weiter zu reisen wann man will und sich täglich neu zu entscheiden, worauf man Lust hat. Man kann sich spontan Anderen anschließen, mit denen man sich gut versteht und mehr Zeit zusammen verbringen evtl auch zusammen weiter reisen…
Warum sollte man sein Leben als Reisender organisieren lassen und sich einer Gruppe anschließen? Das schränkt einen doch total ein. Vielleicht sehe ich das aber auch nur so weil ich alleine reisen extrem genieße und die Freundschaften, die man unterwegs schließt, sind wunderbar und total freiwillig.
Ich habe zwei Fragen und zwar:
Hast du die deutsche Vollkornbrot vermisst? und hast du entweder mehr Sprüdelwasser oder Stillwasser getrunken?
What I am curious about is whether these people are aware of their ecological footprint?
Dont get me wrong. I think it is great that you don't have to sit in an office from 9-5 anymore and instead work for a company on the other side of the world. I also think it is important to visit other cultures for your own personal development, but this program seems very unsustainable.
Travelling to a new country every month uses so many co2 emissions.
Additonally, it looks like most countries in the program have a lower standard of living as in the EU or the US. That is why such a thing can exist in the first place. You take advantage of their lower living standards that are in most cases caused by western societies in the first place.
Maybe I am wrong and the people in this program compensate their emissions caused by the flights and they have events in place that support local communities during their stay. If that isnt the case, then I dont see how people could justify such behaviour while we have a climate crisis and tons of other problems on this planet.
what was the most memorable experience down in south africa for you?
Come to India

Family is the key.
I’m now since 3 years on the road traveling worldwide and it’s interesting to see, which different types of nomads exist.
I would summarize this type of Digital Nomads probably as „Remote working permanent package vacationers“.
I’m self-employed, but personally I wouldn‘t differentiate between employees and self-employed people as I don‘t care about someone‘s schedule (but I also don‘t live and don’t prefer this kind of shared permanent package vacation lifestyle) and there are employees (but freelancers, too) working high-skilled important jobs (from mathematicians to craftsmen) for companies and many (much more) freelancers doing not so skilled gigs or social media or coaching or similar kind of stuff, which is a more important classification for people for myself.
Very informative, thank you. I read the info on their site and your personal insights are a very helpful addition to that knowledge. Personally I would never have chosen to travel to South Africa (fear factor) but your experience has shown me a way to do it more safely, so maybe I will sometime. Once again your content has brought joy and inspiration into my week and I really appreciate that. Keep up the excellent work! ✌
I don't think tailoring the groups to similar employment is a great idea, even though it is great to have those things in common, I think mixing different kinds of people make these things more interesting, and can actually bring people with different skills but with similar objectives together and so get a new business going or something. You can't start a company with all accountants, all programmers or all musicians.
You should also talk about, why you cut you hair this short. Don’t try to hide it under that hat.
Great video as always. I think groups for only video makers or programmers would be a terrible idea. I'm a programmer and the last thing I want is to hangout with programmers after my work that too for a whole month.
Also, do you plan to keep a meetup in Berlin? Following you since years now and moved to Berlin getting inspired by your videos.
I like the first thumbnail But I honestly think you should’ve used the picture of you guys standing on a cliff overlooking the ocean that’s beautiful
