I think so, traveling and adventuring through the world while working seems more worth a pay cut than just not needing to drive to an office.

- grecy 10y ago> traveling and adventuring through the world while working I have been trying to do this for years, and it's much harder than it sounds on the surface. I'm in West Africa now, for reference. When you work for a company (or even just take a contract of some form) the company wants you to be available on their schedule. So you have to live the hours of the country you're "working for". This gets really hard when you have travel days (or weeks), when you want to go someplace remote, have limited or no connectivity, want to do something with locals in the plae you're in, want a social life, etc. etc. Maybe you can do it if "traveling and adventuring through the world" means staying put in a large city in a more-or-less developed country, but otherwise, it's very hard.

- jimmywanger 10y agoBut how would they know? As long as you're in the same time zone (as another commenter has alluded to) and have decent internet, what's the difference between working from a suburb of Chicago and Mexico City?
