List of digital nomad jobs

Are you looking for a remote work because you want to live in different locations, pursue your passions or simply experience the digital nomad lifestyle?

I’ve been traveling for 4 years now and I’ve been working remotely for two years. My digital nomad job is: I work as a freelance content and social media marketer. It’s basically the same type of work that I used to do before traveling, although my place of work used to be an office in Copenhagen. When I started traveling long-term, I changed my lifestyle and I started working independently and online only. I offer my services to small business owners worldwide and besides that I’m developing this blog.

I know how hard it is to find quality clients or remote work positions. I would like to help everybody who is just starting by sharing links to websites that promote remote or digital nomad jobs and also by sharing stories of real people who made it happen.

Examples of jobs that my digital nomad friends have

CUSTOMER SUPPORT AGENT: ALICIA

I met Alicia from Guatemala in a hotel where I used to live in El Tunco. She used to spend lot of time on her computer, so after some days of not interacting at all I asked her: “Do you work online?” Her reply was clear “Yes, I do! I’m a customer service agent at Fiverr and I work remotely.” We clicked instantly and I invited her to my “pool office” (that’s a workplace I used to have in El Tunco). I enjoyed sharing my experience with this smart and friendly young lady. Alicia has been working remotely for two years now while she has been traveling and changing her office space. She shared that she felt in love with Istanbul where she stayed for some time. It felt great to share my digital nomad experience and challenges with someone who had experienced the same and had fresh and motivating point of view. So to bring you more of Alicia’s insights, I did a short interview with her:

What do you do as a digital nomad?
I work as a Customer support agent at www.fiverr.com, a startup company. A marketplace for freelancers.

What do you love about this lifestyle?
Difficult to choose just one thing. Stories, probably would be on the top. I’m fascinated with the stories people live and share with me. I also like being aware I have options, the freedom to choose my own way. The opportunity to keep learning & discovering.

What are the challenges of this lifestyle?
Every day is a challenge, to push myself outside my comfort zone, planning next destination, find reliable connection, cheap tickets, the best way to move from A to C and keep working. Also, constantly saying “goodbye” to family & friends and to practice the philosophy to let go my personal attachments.

If you want to find more about Alicia, her work and experience, I recommend to read this ARTICLE in spiegel.de (However, only available in German).

Thank you for the interview Alicia! Safe travels and lot of energy for your job 🙂
