RE: Being a Digital Nomad is the New "I Wanna Be an Astronaut When I Grow Up"
Surely, Earth as a whole is rapidly heading towards becoming a technology planet. In my next life time I'll be born onto a nature planet where technology will be forbidden in most areas. I love that. I enjoy this life on Earth but am happy to detach from this technology trend the world is going towards, once done here.
Of course, on Earth it is a wonderful development to see decentralized systems coming more and more to the fore. Take Mannabase for example which freely distributes the new cryptocurrency Manna on a weekly basis without further conditions, to create a Universal Basic Income.
I think many are not at all travellers or photographers, because most people predominantly are still stuck in this self-presentation and show-off mode to exemplify how great a life they have. So it's not about the passion for the travel or photos but for attention from others..
Anyways, thanks for your outspoken post!

I concur. Well except for the word "forbidden" implies a top down hierarchy. I believe such a world, people would choose, not to be so distracted with technology.
I was thinking recently, that about the only people who have something approaching true freedom are the old order Amish, and they have their own problems.
Yes, "forbidden" was a bit misleading. It is not that type of forbidding out of disgust and aversion. It is just that the electromagnetic waves emanating from technology is somewhat disturbing the nature-based lifestyle and certain nature-based application 'devices' ;)
