I saw this video a few years ago wishing to be a digital nomad. After a year of trying, I made it. Now I can work while traveling the world. 🙃🤩🤩

Congrats!
I'm a translator, I spend half a year in china every year

Buy a Mac, you forgot this one.
You rock Chris! Thank you for making all the content that you do! I know you’re currently in Digital Nomad 2.0, but for those of us starting out your 1.0 videos are still a huge inspiration!
I'm so grateful to be watching this, especially at 16! It just seemed to properly click. You've got my life planned out!
This channel has opened my eyes. I have always wanted to travel and I love Thailand and would love to just hop around from city to city. Love the temples and calmness of the people there. It's like heaven to me. I have also done a bit of online work years ago and after watching your $600 a month living in Chang Mai video, I think I can do this! Thanks for the videos they are very watchable, you are good at this. You have opened my eyes to a world of possibilities.
This is the best video I've seen about the digital nomad lifestyle... Keep up the good work
Cheers man! I do my best
I have been watching so many videos on UA-cam trying to figure out a way to make more money and even though I don't know nothing about digital nomad I could not agree more with ADE BROWN .
This video have a lot of good information, good links of references.
Keep up the man , you rock 👊🏻
You're so upfront and honest I'm surprised! And your not telling me how I can make $5,000-$30,000 a month!
Cheers Mate,
I'm all about being pragmatic ;)
Chris, I just wanna say cheers brother! Your approach to easily understand and connect with the message in the videos are refreshing. Keep it real. And thanks again. Peace
I've watched tons of videos on digital nomads life, your video has the best content ! Awesome content. Thank you very much !!
Your best video yet! Lots of info on all of the options to freelancing!
Amazing video, thanks for sharing this
I've been living this way now for 22 years lived and worked in 38 different countrys . this life style is the best ever I work with video ,graphic design and photography and audio streaming and video streaming and web design. I would tel any one to just do it its not hard but its a lot of fun. but your right about a relationship its don't happen .Thats the choice Nomad Travel Studio Not been back to uk for 22 years just move from one country to the next now at the moment looking for my next country
Nomad Travel studio do you have family? Wife, children?
No im afraid not this is the only thing I believe is the down side of doing what I do .But I do know people who travel with their kids and teach them their selves .But to Answere your question no I don't

@@nomadtravelstudio3660 hey
Sabj Oeis hi how are you
actually I'm Indonesian, developing country. I will start my digital nomad in Australia this year, wish me luck! all full of sacrifices.
Best of luck
Semangat mas, btw lagi dimana?
Better you stay in Bali. I'm Malaysian also loved bali compare than Kuala Lumpur
Audi Melsom Australia? Why on earth would you do that? Stay in Bali mate
How did it go ?
Well done Chris you are one of the best and most informative in this field of becoming location independent, keep it up
This video was *great!* I would love to go nomadic, but by brand is not quite big enough yet. Drop shipping would be something very interesting to look into though, as I feel I could potentially incorporate something like that into what I do. Thanks for the video! Onward to another! 😝😍
Excellent video, nice work. Very informative, especially love the advice regarding the influence the people you spend the most time with (not necessarily your 'best friends') have on you and who you're becoming. Tim Ferriss is a major advocate of the importance in understanding this relationship. Chris, your point on channels like yours and Riley's serving as a helpful influence to folks who are in the early stages of transitioning from a work then live lifestyle to a work and live (Create an online based business, mainly).
I'm looking forward to enrolling in the Course Riley & Parker are coming out with.
Great pc guys!
Needed this! Thank you!! Motivational + practical!
Chris, excellent video sir. Respect for you and your travels. Keep it up son!
Wow, this is a great video! Thank you for the insight! You confirmed and encouraged exactly what I needed. Thank you kindly! 👊
Great video Chris, thank you
Thank you
Thanks Chris this is one of the best kind of videos I have watched.
Great video! You have covered all my basic questions :) And provided so much solid information I can use immediately. I am learning to code which goes surprisingly fast and thinking to prepare grounds for lifestyle change already. Thank you for all your advice!
Your advices couldn't have been better. Thank you!
Great framework video, Chris! I'm a 20 year old digital marketing entrepreneur from New Zealand. I think it's awesome how the internet offers such working freedom. I hope to utilize my skills and work nomadically within 18 months. Your videos are very useful and I look forward to following your journey!
Thanks Aquul! I agree
Love you content! Thanks for sharing!
Wow man thank you for this, it gave me a true step by step foundation to figure what to do and how to do it. You even gave out some great skills to learn and websites for everything! I've watched several other guides but they can be so vague almost like they're beating around the bush but this was perfect thank you!! I'm taking a break from school and I'm starting completely fresh with a new skill learning all on my own, wish me luck this digital nomad is my dream!!
Thanks Isaiah. I know what you mean. So many videos on UA-cam with click bait titles that don't actually provide the relevant information. I'm glad you liked it
This video is one that I saved on my UA-cam and always remember this. I saw Chris before in Chiang Mai but I forgot to say hi. I’m inspired.
Clearly and very well explained. Kudos mate, cheers
hey chris, I'm from Indonesia, so glad I can watch this video, this is very inspiring for me. and I've been watching this video over and over again. I hope in mid 2018 I can travel as you do
Hi Chris! I like the way you explain the things...Very easy to grab!...Kudos!
Great Work!
Such a good video. I've been sending people here. The framework is super good and I'm using it to get stuff DONE! Big ups for mentioning T. Ferris who changed our paradigm of thought on this. Good job Chris-hope to meet you one day!
chris, this a really awesome video. Thank you for creating this valuable content.
Chris this is incredibly infomative - the most comprehensive video on being DN so far x
Thanks again Olivia
Pretty good advice and a detailed step on how to get started. You've covered the right questions. It's your attitude and the way you bring your message across that's convincing to me: simple, structured and inspiring. Thanks and keep it up, dude.
Thanks bro!
A very informative video. While I have no personal interest in the digital nomad lifestyle, you did answer many of the questions I had such as how you folks handle personal relationships and giving up many personal possessions.
Awesome. Thanks for the comment
Thank you Chris! You answered questions I didn't know I had yet!
Haha awesome. Glad you found it helpful
I do freelance animation. I want to experiment with the digital nomad lifestyle this year, just to see if it's feasible for me and my work. Thank you for this insightful video!
I'll definitely start with this framework. Thank you for the kind explanation. Already enrolled with a couple of iOS courses.
Awesome introduction to digital nomad lifestyle !
Thank you so much! Im still doing my research but I hope to accumulate the necessary skills to start my journey!:D
Finally, after 25 years working as a senior exec in several Fortune 500 companies, I have finally unplugged and gone digital nomadic. Finding the right skills that suits you and then developing it will be challenging for many of you. I tried many over a 5 year period before finally settling on "day-trading" as my passion. Now I can live a life of freedom and travel the world meeting like-minded folks like you without having to compromise on my income. Go nomadic guys and open your mind to a world of wonderful experiences. You have one life so don't be a slave to the system! - The voice of experience.
Thanks Chris for the motivation. Currently working hard on the number 1! Building Skills.
Awesome video Chris, especially for someone like myself who has been considering this kind of lifestyle.
I love how you broke it down. I left a thumbs up and subbed.
Great video, excellent organization and communication. thank you!
great video. you were very honest and very informative. you didn't pretend like you knew what investing was, which a lot of youtubers will pretend they do to make themselves look knowledgable in everything
You are a great coach mate. Accesible and informative. Respect and gratitude.
Thank you EDO STONE
I've been on UA-cam since 2008 and this is the best video I've ever seen honestly I saved it and I have it playing on a loop on all my TV's, I even watch it while I make love
Really like that you give us the details about everything you say ✅
Another thoughtful video as usual. Nice work, and congrats on hitting 1k subscribers!
I just woke up and saw it! Thanks man!
Thank you for this! This was very helpful! Take care!
Very well explained. Interesting options. Thanks heaps!
amazing video guide! thanks Chris!
I WANT TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE WATCHING YOUR VIDEO, I'm on minute 1:30 after just smoking a joint, and I Had to pause it. Why did I pause it? to write this comment. This is a life changing moment, for in my beautiful green mist tells me that you about to spit some truth right now. stumbled upon this, and its exactly what THIS GUY RIGHT HERE needed to hear. I'll be back in about 16 minutes to tell you the rest of MY EXPERIENCE WATCHING YOUR VIDEO. Good day.
Well presented. Thank you.
Amazing Chris!
This is awesome info, Chris!
Thank you so much for this video! So much time went into this and I really appreciate it!
I'm studying sooo much right now to make an online living.
My boyfriend and I are taking the leap and moving to Amsterdam in April 2017. We plan to get jobs there when we move there... But overall to be a digital nomad is my biggest goal. We have loads of travel plans. Your videos are really helping us a lot on this journey :) Thanks! I just subscribed :)
This is great information. Thank you!
Great work Chris, super proud of you! Keep up the great work
Thanks guys. You too!
thank you for uploading great videos!! your videos are so motivating!
Excellent advice. I'm on it!
Great video on how to live the life of a digital nomad. Resourceful material.
From dubai here..got idea now because of you. Thank you
Useful information, thanks
This sounds like a great idea not only for those wanting a nomadic life, but also for many in small towns where employment opportunities are nil. Very interesting. I'm 60 and semi-retired. Looking for something to supplement the social security checks. This may not work for me, but it will be fun checking out all those links! Thanks, Chris! :)
lisarichards195
lisarichards1956 have you decided on a path for supplemental income yet? :) Im curious if you picked up a new skill. Hope all is well.
u can be english teacher abroad!
If you live in a rural area, coding is probably the best thing to get into. You can learn online/by yourself and then get hired to work online, remotely. Like you lay low and learn your stuff over a couple of yearsand instantly put yourself into a much better tax bracket afterwards.
Hi, I’m 70 and finally looking at retirement. I won’t be able to be a digital nomad because of my wife’s health. That being said I’m looking for something in the country, not too far from her doctor, where we can settle. I’m about ready for the quiet country life of a semi-retired academic. Best of luck to you on your journey.
Thanks for the bro! Such an amazing video to learn more about this lifestyle
this*
I have 10+ years in the digital media industry mainly worked as a web developer/designer. Right now I'm trying to make it myself. What you said was spot on.
I just hate the term "Digital Nomad"... used to be cool 5 years ago when not a lot of people were using it.
+Keyframe5 but now it's not because it's too mainstream? Lol
Back then, it was different. The few people i heard calling themselves digital nomad made ten of thousands of dollars each month or theyre practically millionaires. They can live and really go anywhere.
Now anyone can get a $100 dollar adwords coupon, read a book or two, or sell $50,000 worth of stuff online but only profited $300 and call themselves digital nomad.
I think the real digital nomad are the ones that can really live anywhere in the world. Hence the word nomad and not just living in thailand or south east asia, but people can call themselves whatever they want.
I get ya. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you feel), the term digital nomad is no longer reserved for just location independent entrepreneurs. If that's all you are interested in, I can see why the influx of freelancers and remote workers might disappoint some but at the end of the day, the movement is not reserved for any one person of group.
Great tips, i'm digitally nomadic a few months a year.
Hey Chris, Love ❤️ your channel I can see i'm going to learn loads from you and how I can follow in your footsteps and live the #digitalnomadlife
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant video.
Thanks for this! Great explanation!
Awesome video! The company I was working for downsized. I now find myself with an opportunity to pursue something I have dreamed about since late 2009. It's incredible that this is an actual thing and I'm not the only one who wants to do this. What's better is people are already doing this and I can learn from them. Thanks again for sharing!
That's it! Thanks Aaron
Awesome video, man. Great content
Great job,special thanks from Morocco
Great video Chris! It really helped.
This is gold.
Just do it! I'm literally the guy who just books the flight the same day and just takes off.
I've been researching a lot about dropshipping recently and it might do the trick just to start going. Though I would like to eventually be able to start something really creative. And be able to make my living off of that. Cheers bro.
loved the video.
usable advise.
Thank you!
Thanks Bryan.
Thank you for your video and your advices
Great Chris, thanks for sharing!
This is perfect! Thank you!
very informative video Chris, merci
Wow this is like a dejavu. Watch a video about this topic yesterday from a channel that I subscribe and he told be a part from Bali Chang mai is one of the best place to be a digital Nomad. I've already subscribe to u bro. Lots of love from KL Malaysia.
very informative video... simple & to-the-point
Good job Chris!
Hi Chris, Thanks for the video. I'm looking to do this in August. When I speak to friends about it, they say I'm crazy, however, to me, this is the most thought out thing that I've ever decided to do!
haha my Dad said the same thing. Don't worry about it. They'll understand eventually.
Great content. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing, it is very useful! Fighting!!!
Very good vid. I've been searching for a video like this.
Thanks Matt. Glad you liked it
Fantastic video. Knolegable tips by you. I was there in Banghkok on the new year. Spent some times in Patyya also
If you are thinking about taking a formal education approach for web development I defiantly agree with what he said that you're gonna end up learning outdated techniques and spend a shit load of money. I am currently in school for web development and design and graduate next month and a surprising amount of the things we learned are very outdated. If you do go just be aware that you are spending that money just to say you have a degree which is a plus but your money can be better spent on more up to date courses online at some off the sites he listed.
hey Chris! my girlfriend and I were in Chiang mai last October and I could swear we saw you doing an interview outside this one cafe. it's by happenstance that I stumbled across your channel last week. your tips/channel are propelling our goals forward and with some luck the resources you have graciously provided will get us prepared for our journey into the world of nomadic living. I'm sure you get it a lot but I'd like to pick your brain at some point if there is a way to do that get back to me. maybe we will get lucky and cross paths and if have a success story to share with you and your subscribers. keep up the good work
Ed and Jess
Keep up the good work. Very inspiring channel. I'm currently a dev in a company in Silicon Valley so it looks like the learning how to code part is more or less taken care of. I'd like to try to go nomad one day and maybe share the adventures on youtube as well!
I would love to learn more about the online business Chris 😁. Please make it, itwould be awesome. I love your videos they are so informative. Great content
This video explains stuff so well
Thank you for another inspiring video! love from Hong Kong!
great, great video! super informative!
Chris this is inspiring I wish to know more about this and make this happen.
Thanks, great video!
Great info. thanks
