Video from my article, 'I did not quit my job to travel the world,' an intro on how I entered the digital nomad world 12 years ago. Reader e-mails are the best part of my week. Whenever someone tells me they want to escape the cube they are in, I find it strange that they have to ask me what to do. When I say “the environment” that forced me to do what I didn’t like, I am not talking about the office or an employer. It was life in general. I was sick of it.

If I trace back how I did it, I just did it. There was no explanation. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong not until I left. I keep saying “just do it” because if you feel it in all veins of your body that you want to leave, it’s not rocket science. Choose a place, buy a ticket, board the plane, alight the plane, arrive the destination and that’s when you start figuring sh*&^t out.
You don’t need to plan anything yet because you are in a very difficult state. As long as you are still in unhealthy surroundings, you can never plan things. You can never understand what you want to do until you free yourself from a toxic environment. Leaving is not easy let alone gathering the courage to book a ticket. But I’ve seen people who are reading this blog take the leap. Whenever I talk to them and ask how their trip is going, they always say the same thing: “leaving was the hardest part but as soon as I did, everything fell into place.”
Don’t look ahead. Look in front of you. What’s the first step? Or do you have to make traveling your job? How do you make it happen?
