What to do with your "stuff", part 1So you're about to take your life permanently on the road as a digital nomad. What the heck do you do with all your stuff? In this video, I'd like to tell you about what I did…read on or watch below. So when I decided to become a digital nomad, it wasn't my first experience moving abroad. Some years before, I had left Canada to move to Australia. I owned my own home, and I chose to rent it and put most of my possessions in a friend's basement. When I returned two or three years later, basically, I didn't know what was in the boxes anymore. I knew a few things but for the most part, it wasn't really needed. Honestly, you think your things are more important than they actually are.
I had this experience with England as a kid as well. We put all of our stuff in storage and when we came back three years later, I was like, “why did I think this was so important?” And honestly, you'll just have to deal with it on the other end. Storage is expensive, and makes your life harder. So my tip for you is, be as ruthless as you can. If you're on the fence about whether to keep it, err on the side of getting rid of it. That's it for today. If you're interested in me as a copywriter, I would love to tell you more about my process. Below is a link to my free connection calls. I love to learn about what you're working on and see if we're a good fit, so please don't hesitate to reach out. Today I am filming this video from a beautiful lake in Bolivia and behind me are some wild flamingos which is pretty neat. So until next week, we'll talk to you then! Considering life as a digital nomad? Have any experiences with getting rid of your "stuff"? Share in the comments below. I'd love to hear from you!

There’s one thing you can do to protect your brand as a digital nomad who’s working on the road and in this video I’m going to share what that is. Keep reading or watch my video to find out... So there’s one thing that you can do as a digital nomad who is on the road. As you can see I’m filming this video from the Salar de Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia. I get to do cool stuff like this often, but this is not my whole life.
As a digital nomad, when you’re posting stuff on social media, remember to show people that you’re doing more than this cool stuff because I promise you, this is not all of my life. There’s a lot of working on buses, working in cafes and working in dark hostel rooms. It’s a really cool balance and finding that is key. It’s totally worth it, but don’t forget to show the world that there’s more to your life than travel. The other side of my life? I’m also a copywriter! Please consider reaching out for a free connection call. Let me tell you about my process, tell me about what you’re working on and we’ll see if we’re a good fit. That’s it for this week and I look forward to talking to you again soon. Tell me about some of the cool places you’ve been! Leave your comments below and let’s chat about it. |
