I’ve browsed YouTube and Reddit for a bit but can’t seem to find a good place of where to start for research.

Some context: I’m 24 years old and working as a software developer from home. I’ve been given the green light from my manager/ceo etc (everyone is encouraging it before I start renting!). I’ve been looking at south east Asia specifically as someone in my company already works near by.

My ideal travel plan is as follows - stay out for 3 months visiting a country a month I believe this will let me settle down yet still give me time to explore (essentially 6-8 days in each country)

To begin with I’m trying to find a place in Bali (ideally Uluwatu as I want to learn surfing on the weekends). Although, I have no idea where to begin looking for accommodation with solid internet (6pm-1am) or even legal issue like visas, from my understanding they don’t care if you’re there on a travel visa for short term.

I’m sure I’m missing some key factors so any advice or stories of how you got started digital nomading would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

The key things you need to know are:

  1. Is your passport within date?
  2. Do you need a visa for where you intend to travel?
  3. Is your flight booked?

That's basically it.

Great! So simple, that’s reassuring!
