Yeah, digital nomadism is about working remotely. You can always try to find a job in the place where you currently are, but having a stable online job is definitely more convenient. Ultralight minimalism while traveling is a very good start though :)

There used to be quite a lot of Steemians who made their living through blogging about their travels but with the current prices, I am probably one of the last ones who still refuse to throw in the towel.

Another option (for you) might be to save some money and then live off it for a few months somewhere in Thailand or Indonesia (where you can reduce your expenses to some 200 or 300 bucks per month) to see what it is like.
