Beach Commute - Digital Nomad Experts

7 essential steps when arriving to any new destination | Ep 12

Listen Later

Taking the leap to become a digital nomad can feel both overwhelming and scary.

In addition to figuring out what to pack, getting travel insurance, and what you’ll do with your belongings at home…

The unknown of arriving in a new place can often prevent people from taking the leap before even getting started.

So, to help you…

In this episode, Marisa, Jeff and Diego talk through the 7 MOST IMPORTANT steps to think through in the days leading up to your arrival, and the steps we highly suggest taking right when you land in a new place…

In order to successfully travel without dropping the ball at your job.

During this chat, not only will you laugh along with 3 friends, you’ll also learn:

  • Diego’s secret tip to find a place you’ll LOVE living for a month, without having to commit before seeing it in person
  • How to find the safest (and least expensive!) transportation from the airport to your hotel or airbnb
  • Why having cell service right away is a MUST (and how to do it)
  • Why you should NEVER EVER exchange money at the airport, and what to do instead to get local currency right away (which is super important)
  • Why Marisa laughed at Diego and Jeff for prioritizing their need for “specialty coffee” and “craft beers” when they first arrive in a new destination, and the first thing she searches for instead
  • Jeff’s #1 tip to find healthy food and groceries right when you arrive to a new destination
  • How to keep up your exercise routine in your first few days in a new place

    • We hope you enjoy the episode, and find it helpful as you enter into YOUR journey as a digital nomad!
