A fellow remote software dev here, I love the shot of you working in the snow on a mountain.
If you're looking for some inspiration to get back into it, check out my post on working as a freelance web dev. https://steemit.com/business/@apardes/thoughts-and-tips-from-a-freelance-web-developer
Good luck out there!
Cool man! Like your tips! Have you ever just thought about a remote job rather than freelance?
