"To christen digital nomadism as a growing trend is a gross understatement. Brushing it off as a passing fad is a refusal to accept reality. While it's hard to pin down an exact figure, upper estimates suggest 80 million people could be living free from the constraints of the traditional office setup. That's the equivalent of the entire population of Germany upping sticks and working remotely."
"I've been among the digital nomad ranks for seven years now, fully embracing the lifestyle by living and working in almost 50 countries with my partner. In that time, we've experienced the highs and lows of the lifestyle, something I've documented in this digital nomad starter guide, and now have a firm grasp of the destinations where remote work thrives."
"Perpetually in the shadow of its neighbors, Thailand and Vietnam, Malaysia might just be the least appreciated country by Westerners in Southeast Asia. Considering it's where I've now made my home for the next two years, I find it borderline criminal. As a tourist destination, it's breathtaking. Boasting beach-tinged islands to rival any, legendary rainforests, one of the greatest culinary scenes on the planet, and an ultra-modern capital, there's so much to uncover. But as a digital nomad hub, it's almost perfect."
Estimates place up to 80 million people living free from traditional office constraints, driven by increasing connectivity and Millennials entering management. Long-term nomad experience includes seven years living and working in almost 50 countries with a partner, experiencing highs and lows and producing a starter guide. Top digital nomad destinations are chosen for infrastructure, affordability, and quality of life, while some lesser-known locations offer niche advantages. Kuala Lumpur is presented as an underrated hub with beaches, rainforests, an exceptional culinary scene, and an ultra-modern capital. Many short-term visitors from various countries receive three months visa-free access.
