- Let's address this "work from beach freelancer" topic. Do freelancers work from the beach, or are they staying in the Airbnb room and working most of the day?

I love seeing how other self-employed people do their work, and how it works out with personal time. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Hey man, love to see such videos at the end of my working day, thanks! Keep going. P.S. Glad you are growing as a UA-cam creator
Hey, thanks!
Great vlog, it's really nice to see both the dream life and the realistic sides of things too - as someone who wants to be a freelance developer this is inspirational :)
You deserve 500K not 50K! Then you can buy 10 pairs of headphones 😅
Hehe, she would like to get a few more gadgets for sure.
Hopefully one day 🤞
I spent a month working remotely from Valencia during COVID. I am full time employee in a big company. I ended up renting a table+external screen in coworking space in Rusaffa. There was plenty of time to spend as a traveller: walking to and from work, coffee breaks, lunch, meeting people.
The biggest downside was when you have lots of meeting like I do it can be tricky to find decent place.
3:16 The coffee cup looks comically small! This was a wonderful video and insight to how you plan the day while working on the road.
it always interest me to see how people transition from corporate office setup or jobs to a freelance realm - office anywhere - and unbounded. I am very new to your channel and I would like to thank you for sharing your experiences. I would like to know more on how you managed to transition or even decide to completely leave the corporate job. All the anxiety the transition could bring and more. More videos!
Kudos to you Sir
Thanks for the feedback!
Everyones story is a bit different and I like to share mine.
What an inspiration you are, im still.very young and new to software but this life you are living id exactly what I wish to achieve 🙏
This is the second video I have been watching on your channel, but I really like your content. I'm looking forward to seeing your next vlogs.
Thank you and welcome aboard!
Great video again Aivars! Finally got the new iPad pro, looking forward to seeing what it can do
My iPad is about 3 years old already and still holding well. It is great companion to the MBP
Great insight to your work/life balance as a traveling freelancer. That work routine can be difficult for many people but if you can make it work and gain extra time with the family it is a win! American here and agree 100% on Dunkin’ Donuts.
The most challenging part is to clearly define when it is work time and when you are switching to vacation mode or taking brake from work. If it is clear for myself and family, then this work/travel mix works well.
Yeah, Dunkin's was big surprise, we expected better taste ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Great video, Aivars! Keep it up!
Thanks a ton!
Enjoy your Summer time Aivars
Thank you!
Come on dude, she wanted these headphones.
❤ enjoy Spain my friend.
50K is reachable number, so it is possible she will get them :)
Thank you for the video inspiring as always
Thanks for watching!
SuperB to watch
By the way Aivars. Not sure if you use this lens, but the absolute best lens for vlogging on the A7IV is the 20mm f1.8
I have a 20mm f1.8 lens as well. That is the first one I got for Sony.
I planned to get a 24-105 f4 for traveling and pair it with 20mm, but I got a used 16-35 f2.8 for a good price. So, I'm traveling now with it and 55 mm f1.8.
16-36mm, IMO, is better for vlogs. Wider, and you can zoom in for a B-roll as well. Sure, I would like if it is smaller without losing f2.8 aperture ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Great video! I was working for a company the same as you, full hours on b2b contract, but I’ve never considered it freelancing though 😂
It's the consultant's agreement. Consultant and freelancer is the same thing, just sound fancier and often are paid better.
Thank you for your videos, they are inspiring! A special thank you for your stance on the war in Ukraine. Recently, I had an interview with a company from the USA, and at the final stage of the interview, it turned out that my potential team lead is still working from russia. The company has a large office in belarus, meaning they pay taxes in both countries, and they also hired a significant number of former Yandex employees for their office in Europe. This was unacceptable to me, so I declined the position despite the salary and prospects that the new job could have offered. I respect people for whom principles are more important than finances.
Great video, lovely and inspiring
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very big motivation, but i'm wondring what kind of skills do we need to became like you...enjoy your time 🙏
Programming and communication skills are important for freelancing. Indie app development and content creation is different story and skill set.
Daughter asked for a subscription, and Dad got the subscription from me. 😊 Great video btw.
Awesome! Thank you!
That was bold move from here, but why not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 🎧
Nice video keep it up🥳❤
buy her those headphones please lol. And also could you make a video on how to start your journey in programming and freelancing? tnx
Appreciate you sharing your schedule and habits! At what time do you usually go to sleep?
Usually I'm in bed after 10pm and waking up at 6
Valencia, great choice :)
It really is! Nice city.
Great Vid 👍 Hope you get that 50.000 subs soon, Aivars. Why did you choose that contract where you work more synchronized instead of a more flexible one? Was it better paid? Curious to know.
I chose that for multiple reasons: a better team, paid vacation, and a more challenging project. Last but not least - no connections with Russia.
@@AivarsMeijers I get that. In the end it's a trade off.
Awesome video, I always wanted to know what type of freelance you did.
Now you know :)
Thanks!
Does your team do daily standups? At the day job (consumer antivirus/anti-malware/anti-ransomware) we have a daily “ship room” meeting (focused on the next release, and we release every two weeks) and daily standups for many of the teams.
Yes, we have those. Daily stand-up + once in a week longer weekly meeting.
Same contract for me. But we also have a 2 weeks demo with buisness, and this is kind of an exams ))
Best Life
Nice i live in Valencia
Lucky you! I will miss my morning runs in city park.
C'mon let's hit 50k!
One day, hope 🎧 still will be a thing 😅
From this video, one thing is very clear... Dunkin Donuts didn't sponsor this video. 😛
It looks like that table is glass, do you have problems with the MX3 mouse on glass surfaces? Mine seems to not respond if the surface is clear.
It's more like a stone and yes, the mouse struggles a bit.
@@AivarsMeijersit’s a bummer because traveling with a mouse pad is just another thing to bring. Sure it’s not heavy or big but still. 😂
a coincidence?😂 Or did my recent question under shorts really give a topic for a new video?🙃
Perhaps :)
This video was already a work in progress since last Saturday when I started my trip and recorded the first clips.
@@AivarsMeijers yes, I watched the previous videos where you talked about working while traveling and in a cafe in your hometown. This is how you shoot a video, tell it, but questions are still asked by people like me😅 But activity in the comments 😇
❤❤❤❤❤
Are you Still in Valencia??
No, not anymore. Traveling in Andalusia now.
Where in Spain are you staying?
I was in Valencia for a week, now moving to Andalusia region. Planing to visit Granada, Seville, Cordoba, Gibraltar and Malaga.
Welcome… I’m from Sevilla.
When shit started to hit the fan in russia - well said👍
So your daughter stays with the grand parents? These things are much easier without kids.
I did the digital nomad thing for two years, spent a lot of time across the world.
Really enjoyed living in Russia actually.
Nope, she is with grandparents for a months or a bit more in summers only.
😍
Hi Aivars, how much do freelancers like you get paid on average?
Depends on projects, but about the same like average iOS dev salary in EU.
Subscribing so you could buy your daughter the Air Pods Max 😆
in short, there is no free lunch.
