The Surf Office and Hacker Paradise: Re-inventing the Office Experience
- willholloway 12y agoI'm glad to see others sharing my vision of the future of work. I believe very strongly in the benefit of working amidst natural beauty, outside the city, in a quiet place where one can focus on work and unwind in the outdoors and at small gatherings. The future is an amazing place to live. We now can live a life like Thoreau at Walden while developing world changing products and marketing and selling them globally.
- codam 12y agoI completely adhere to that :)
- smegel 12y agoHa, I'm currently holidaying in the Gold Coast, and I was quite literally asking myself the other day how/if I could bring my work to a nice apartment overlooking the sea. Would be nice.
- codam 12y agoYou should do it, it is really worth trying out!
- skizm 12y agoHow do world travelers pay for health care? Do they have to pay anything if they are in a country with universal health care? Is there some sort of insurance you can get that covers you world wide? How much does that cost? I'm young and have decent savings, and would love to take a risk on something more interesting/start a company, but from what I can tell health care costs are more than rent if I'm on my own. (I'm in the US obviously)
- codam 12y agoFor trip of less than 3 month, you can be covered by your credit card like Visa Premier for instance. For longer trips, there are several international health insurance like: http://www.worldnomads.com http://www.worldnomads.com This is the one I subscribed to for my digital nomad round-the-world trip.
- maaku 12y agoHeath care is way, way, way cheaper outside of the U.S.
- codam 12y agoHi I am the author of this article. If you have questions about these places, or how I am handling my digital nomad round-the-world trip, feel free to ask me directly. Raphael
- rurban 12y agoNice. I did some of my best projects in Tagazhout and Ericeira, Portugal. But honestly, riversurfing is easier and is more fun. Munich, Montreal, Graz or Boise come to my mind. Better infrastructure than on a beach, and less hassle with antisocial beach surfers.
