But this new job has us on rotational shifts and it means I’ll have to work from 12pm-9pm on most days and will only have 2 free days. I’m starting to have regret.

How do you find time to enjoy things while having to actually work? It seems like people who are digital nomads are free. I wanted to be able to go out and try diff restaurants, explore, all of that but I won’t be able to

Yes if you stay for a whole month you get roughly 8 days free(4 weekends). So you can think of 1 month of nomading is equivalent to a 1 week vacation if you don't take any free days to recover/do nothing.

The longer you stay, the better. You're just living a "normal" life in a different location.

The best advice is just to stay in a location until you visa runs out and then go somewhere new.
