Freelance is great but if you only work with open market places like Fiverr, UpWork etc, you are in competition with equally talented people living in countries where earning $5/hour is a blessing.
Best for you is to focus on finding a few agencies managing big budgets and becoming a preferred contractor. Or you develop very specific skills not many have and you'll get the higher tickets.
Freelance, digital nomad etc is not a sweet straight motorway sipping ice cream while riding a hot convertible...
Nowadays you need to be not only a talented specialist but also an entrepreneur and see yourself as a "product". Maybe you need to work on your presence and image too, and market yourself better. So many components to master to reach a healthy freelance lifestyle.
