The future is already here.
Sneak preview: it's awesome, sort of. Traveling and living short-term in different places has many wonderful aspects, but it's not perfect. There are also many downsides/hassles.
I also suspect the number of people who will want to do this for a long period of time (>1-2 years) is fairly low. Then you have to figure out where you want to live and if it's not in your home country, you have to deal with where you really want to live versus where you can get residency.
- another_story 5y agoI prefer moving and living somewhere for longer periods, such as 3 to 4 years. It's long enough to learn the language and get to know the place fairly well. That 3-4 months just scratches the surface.
- LurkingPenguin 5y agoYes 3-4 months goes by a lot faster than you expect. The challenge with staying somewhere for years is that it's not trivial to obtain residency in most places.
