In recent years, a new breed of professionals has emerged – the digital nomads. These individuals have embraced a lifestyle that allows them to work remotely from anywhere in the world, free from the constraints of a traditional office job. Goodbye commute, hello world!
The rise of technology and the internet has made it possible for people to connect and work from virtually anywhere. Digital nomads take advantage of this flexibility to explore new places, meet new people, and experience different cultures while still staying productive in their jobs.
What sets digital nomads apart from other remote workers is their commitment to living a nomadic lifestyle. They are not tied down to a specific location and often travel for extended periods of time, hopping from one destination to another as they please.
One of the biggest draws of being a digital nomad is the ability to escape the daily grind of commuting to and from work. Instead of spending hours stuck in traffic or on crowded public transportation, digital nomads can choose to work from a beach in Bali, a cafe in Barcelona, or a co-working space in Chiang Mai.
Not only does this lifestyle provide opportunities for adventure and personal growth, but it also allows digital nomads to save money on living expenses. By living in countries with a lower cost of living, they can stretch their budgets further and experience a higher quality of life than they might in their home country.
Of course, being a digital nomad is not all sunshine and rainbows. It can be challenging to balance work and travel, especially in countries with unreliable internet connections or different time zones. Loneliness and isolation can also be common issues for those who are constantly on the move and away from their support networks.
Despite these challenges, the digital nomad lifestyle continues to attract people from all walks of life. Whether they are freelancers, remote employees, or entrepreneurs running their own businesses, digital nomads are united by their desire for freedom and flexibility in how they work and live.
As the world becomes increasingly interconnected and remote work becomes more common, we can expect to see more and more people embracing the digital nomad lifestyle. Goodbye commute, hello world – the future of work is here, and it’s looking more nomadic than ever.

How to get more videos
Been working online for the past two years. That way i get an income, work when I want to work and choose what i want to do. Biggest bonus, I get to spend time with my kids! Cant ask for more
It's been more than 2 years since I quit my 9-5 at a Fortune 500 company. Looking back, I should've done it earlier. The old-school way tends to focus more on being there physically 8-9 hours a day instead of delivering results. I'm just glad I can now focus on my goals and not on somebody else's.
To whom it may concern: First off, happy Monday to all. Up until recently I have been very content with oDesk. I've been a loyal patron and have preached about how your platform is THE BEST for hiring freelancers and searching for jobs. My relationship with you was smooth sailing. I was happy, my clients were happy, oDesk was happy. All three parties were satisfied because we were all meeting our needs. This perfect relationship took a turn for the worst when #oDesk decided to remove all of my 25 weekly job app quotas. I tried calling and emailing oDesk for clarification and assistance of the matter. The response from the oDesk Trust & Safety Team was "Unfortunately, we can’t complete your review until your contracts are closed and two weeks have passed. This will give your client a chance to leave feedback, which will then be used as part of your overall performance evaluation." This to me is ridiculous. I should not have to have my current clients take time out of their busy schedules to close a contract, send feedback, and open a contract for me. This is a highly illogical process. We (the contractors and oDesk) are here to ease the headache of clients and aid them in ensuring their work flow runs as efficiently and smoothly as possible. My clients should not be put through this and I should not be punished for doing what is BEST for my working relationship with my clients. I am appalled by oDesk's actions and expect this issue to be cleared. Thank you and HAPPY MONDAY #ODESK – Rebeca A.
Where can i watch this film?
Thank you Odesk for turning me into a digital nomad 5 years ago. 😉

So Great and interesting…
Virtual Financial Group we are Digital Nomads in the financial services industry. I work from my home office in Santa Rosa , CA and do business all over the country.
Love it! So great to see some familiar faces in there. This is the new world of work, baby!
This is truly a motivating and inspiring video. Becoming a Digital Nomad is in my future, and I look forward to the day I can break out of a 9-5 job and jump into a life of passion and purpose. My countdown to freedom is on!
thank to oDesk, i am happy to see this video,
I'll be a nomad soon .
Great Video…Amazing freedom in Life. Odesk has taught me to create a virtual team of passionate online workers. Digital Nomads – what a great way to revolve your work around your life..Just being grateful to God for leading me to Odesk. – lovethewayiwork-
I am getting closer to being a full time digital nomad every day. As soon as I make it I'm doing a ski season in France – woo hoooooo!
This is really great oppertunity to start live life free. Almighty Allah may help us to reach at the goal. Goodbye commute, hello world.
I'm in the way of Digital Nomand too…….
World is free now
. So work should be free for all. I love it.
Interesting, yet the video itself shows people not working.
It's really good platform around the world to become free from 9-5.
Amazing Stories, i am watching this video using a VPN (because youtube is blocked in PK 🙁
)
Nice Video 🙂
Be Happy!!!
my life is free… i can go anywhere-anytime…no problem, my office is just a small bag, my laptop and modem 🙂 oDesk give me Financial Freedom ..
Thank oDesk
I'm 21 years old and I'm running my own graphic and web design team. I work and travel at the same time 🙂
So great to be featured in this video that finally give a real voice to the digital nomad lives we lead and how freeing they can be. Sure there are challenges with leading a life and running a business this way but the freedom and experiences that come with it are amazing. And oDesk you've helped this in a big way by allowing me to build a team virtually who are super talented that all started with just one hire.
Life is freedom, thanks oDesk for the opportunity to live free… another great thing you guys can do is to reduce the 11.11% charges 😛 😉
Thanks odesk for giving opportunity to choose our own time to work and our own time to live life.
I want to be one of those digital nomads.
NOMAD is My blood type and freelance means freedom
but Odesk job brings obesity,,,:-(
Hmm, what a video, 🙂
I love being a digital nomad…..i am home when the kids leave for school and I am home when they come home at the end of the day…they could talk over things that happened to them in the course of the day and I'm not that tired to listen to them…although work had become tougher and more hectic this year….but still I am always here for them……at home where they need me most……I was always here the difference of now and before was that I have my own money to spend the way I want and on anything I want…….
I like it and also I enjoy working as freelancer.
It's great to become part of the digital nomad. 🙂
Wow! really awesome experience….
Amazing 🙂
Nice video. I'd like it.
oDesk is simply awesome. 🙂
Love being a digital nomad! It's not THAT glamorous as the video would lead you to believe – I don't climb mountains and I grew tired of beach after going every day for 6 months 🙂 – but it's every bit better than the old 9-5 lifestyle I had.
Oh that's me! that's me at the 1:10 min! hahaha Working beside the infinity pool in the beautiful island of Boracay, Philippines 😉
Thank you oDesk!
