You’ve heard about being a digital nomad- maybe you’ve seen the jealousy-inducing headlines over on MSNBC or Buzzfeed, but you’ve convinced yourself that nobody actually does that. Digital nomads aren’t really a thing. Well, we hate to be the bearers of bad news, but they actually do exist and we’re joined by real life digital nomad, Becca Siegel from Half Half Travel. Becca is a well-traveled photographer and digital content creator with a unique approach to travel blogging and remote work that we’re going to spend a lot of time discussing today. She has contributed her travel expertise to various publications like USA Today, Huffington Post, and she and her husband have been featured in the Oprah Magazine, Lonely Planet, Travel & Leisure. Today we’re excited to discuss the highs and lows of being a digital nomad, how to negotiate remote work, the most affordable locations to travel, why joining a program like Remote Year makes sense, traveling with a baby, and more!
