Are you baffled by international tax systems? Wondering how taxes impact you as a digital nomad?

In this episode we sit down with Marcella, an experienced tax professional and a digital nomad herself. After many years of working as a private client tax consultant, she decided it was time to go after her dream of becoming location-independent. She quickly realized that this new digital nomad community has a huge need for a tax expert who lives the same lifestyle and who's able to help nomads figure out their taxes. She now helps location-independent business owners and digital nomads pay less taxes by securing tax residencies in tax-friendly countries around the world, without the stress and fear of making costly mistakes and doing it alone.

If you're ready to pay less taxes, you can send Marchela a DM on Instagram @marchela_georgieva_ or you can book a free call and chat about your current tax situation to see if you'd be a good fit to work together. You can book some time directly here: https://calendly.com/marchelageorgieva/30min
