Going outside the comfort zone
When I realized I could become a digital nomad, my first thought wasn’t yes or no, it was: oh, dammit.
I wish Airbnbs listed their #walkscore. My current place in Central Massachusetts has a score of 3, whereas my stay in Alameda, CA, had a score of 89. The difference is noticeable in my day-to-day exercise and happiness. #Airbnb #Digitalnomad #Roadbits https://www.walkscore.com/
I had a great time dogsitting Summer & Biscuit in Colorado this winter! More important, it taught my friend the joys of having a dog in one's life. Thanks to @Housesitting for the opportunity! #Roadbits #DigitalNomad https://roadbits.net/dogsitting-summer-and-biscuit/
Anyone ever been to @trooseveltnps — our country's only national park named after a person? I'm thinking of hiking the Caprock Coulee Trail this Thursday, weather permitting. #FindYourPark #DigitalNomad #Roadbits https://www.nps.gov/thro/planyourvisit/caprock-coulee-nature-trail.htm
I just calculated my total housing costs for 2021. I spent 52% more than in 2020. 😱
I knew California & Colorado would be expensive places to live. But #Airbnb's overall prices have gone up, too. #Digitalnomad #Roadbits https://www.businessinsider.com/airbnb-prices-higher-travel-rebound-earnings-hotels-spending-vacation-2021-5
I arrived in #MissoulaMT last night, which is my first time in two years of nomading I've gone *back* somewhere. I did not anticipate the relief I'd feel at not having to engage in the "where is everything, how do I live/work here" new-city routine. #DigitalNomad #Roadbits
