And that's the beauty of Location Free Remote Career Life Style.
Location Free = Remote Life & Career (master studies and work) became REALITY - Dreams do come True!
This blog is considered as a diary list of past visited countries, approximately how many times and for how long since the beginning of my life.
My goal was never how many, but how long in 1 destination to really dive into the culture, memorised smell, taste, touch, sound and view, meet various people and do listen to them, locals and travellers, with attention and curiosity.
Follow random feelings which were indicated by the symbol, sign, person, corner of the view, smell, flower, cat, dog, poster...
No map, no GPS, to find something just ask others.
That's how I travel most of the time.
I create this list to come back to certain countries and explore new ones. It is my little memorial of memories without specifics just a simple list. And because of the free location remote career including my master studies and work with clients I can do it 365 days if I wish to, however, Ireland, Dublin and Dublin Bay are somehow always calling me to come back, as my truly chosen home. The Home, my base is important to have. To reflect, rest, paint my paintings, sit at the huge desk with huge monitors, appreciate adventures and create new ones. I love you Ireland.
I was always Digital Nomad even before I knew this expression. Starting with holidays inside the mum's womb and multiple hitchhiking adventures since teenage hood.
With Wi-Fi it is possible, and with a career in UX/UI Design is even more possible. I am truly grateful for those people who invited everything that makes this possible. Thank you. You are all Geniuses. Countries where I used to live and live now:
