Event Overview

Interested in becoming a location independent entity? The recent explosion in remote work has opened the door for anyone who wants to embrace a more adventurous lifestyle. This class will give you the tools to consider your options and hatch a plan: Save, budget, research, network and more. First, we will tackle the BIG question: Is this digital nomad lifestyle for you? How can you test it out before you rent a storage locker and give up your permanent residence?

Then, we'll dive a little deeper:

• How will you generate income?


• Where will you live?


• How will you find friends?


• How will you create work/life balance?

Finally, we'll explore some of the nitty-gritty details:

• How much money do you need?


• What about insurance?


• Do you need a storage locker?


• What's the best phone?


• Will your special dietary needs be an issue?


• Can you bring your dog? And more.

There will be time at the end of class to answer your questions and address individual concerns. The instructor will provide a free copy of the Kindle version of her book Thrifty Girl Kicks Your Financial Butt to every student. The class is limited to 8 students. The class is 1.5 hours but can be extended 30 minutes to support any additional questions.

Alexis Steinkamp has been accused of passport abuse. In the last few years, she's traveled over 100K miles on a tight budget, lived on three continents, and hit many digital nomad hotspots including Medellin, Buenos Aires, Quito, Cuenca, Lisbon, Porto, Barcelona, Tarifa, Berlin, Amsterdam, San Cristobal de las Casas and Montreal. And, she's learned a thing or two about designing an alternative lifestyle on the move--and on a budget! Read all about the adventure at Freerangechickblog.wordpress.com.
