  • I think it is because many people see digital nomads as freelancers with irregular income or self employed people trying to get their business off the ground. They think digital nomads are broke. That being said, many digital nomads don’t make a lot of money, to be honest. I don’t think the vast majority chooses cheap places like Thailand, Colombia, Brazil, Indonesia, Philippines, etc. just because of the great nature there; they can’t afford places like South of France.

    And yes, some people are plain jealous. They are conditioned by the society to believe that only 9-5 jobs with commute to the office are legit. They even lash out of people working from home let alone work remotely and travel the world.

    Let them struggle in their own misery…that comment about “sugar daddy” was utterly rude though. I’d have called them out on it.

    I’d stay in Germany if I were you. There is a recession in the US and the employers are very fickle. There is no job security.

    You’re already in Germany. You could learn German more easily living there.

    You can also take advantage of the 4 week German vacations to travel and learn new cultures and have fun in your 20s. In the US, you’d get barely 2 week of vacation a year.
