It sounds pretty nice but also exhausting to be honest, I don't think a lot of people would be able to have that lifestyle.


I used to travel a lot while working, and yes it sucked unless I was not really paying attention to my work. What I'd rather do is stay in some other place for 1-3 months at a time, which is what actual nomads did.


When I traveled a lot for work I was mostly doing some small percentage of my immediate day job that needed to be done. I certainly didn’t try to do what I’d have been doing were I in the office all day.


It is very easy lifestyke, just use a van with proper equipment, not freaking tesla.


My wife and I worked 150 days in an RV last year and both agree it's easier to be on the road than at home. The small space living forces both minimalism and being outside.


Of the past three years we have spent about half of it (full time for the first year and a min of 4 months each year since) traveling with our daughter in a 40ft fifth wheel. The small space has been even more impactful with a small child, it was GREAT! Between waking up and being able to walk her out to the beach, or when it is rainy not having a mess of toys all over a house, lots of things balance out the effort invested in the traveling portion. Especially when you get a rhythm with it like we did while we were full timing.
