Global Nomadic’s Post

📣 Today we launch Global Nomadic Rewire. 📣 I launched Global Nomadic in 2009 when I was 30. I volunteered in my 20s, visiting remote destinations, working alongside incredible people doing inspiring work. I WAS my target demographic - a young person looking to forge my way in the humanitarian sector. I founded Global Nomadic to provide a marketplace, matching people to far-flung, meaningful projects. As my life evolved, becoming a husband and father, I exchanged jungles and rainforests for London, and the business evolved too. Our clients no longer need help getting a foot in the door, but are searching for a Meaningful Second Act. Maybe you are looking to take time out to rethink the direction of your career in a more purpose-led way? Or you’re close to burn out and need time to rest and recover? Or maybe you are in search of an adventure, beyond corporate life? We have curated a bespoke suite of global projects in conservation, sustainability and community development, just for you. Huge thanks to Paul Freedman and Laura Fox for helping drive this new direction. So what do you think, do you feel the need to get away and create purpose in your life and career? Please do share your thoughts in the comments. rewire.globalnomadic.com #purpose #sabbatical #travel #wellness #restandrecovery

Last week, I touched back down in South Africa. It's a quick trip 'home' after 4 amazing months travelling in Lunar Landy through Lesotho, Swaziland, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Returning to the familiar buzz of South Africa after spending extended time in unfamiliar and usually pretty remote places is both disorienting and comforting. Exciting, and yet quite surreal. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬: 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲: It’s pretty wild how easy it is to slip back into old habits in a familiar place. As someone who works in behaviour change, I was reminded of just how much our surroundings shape our actions. Whether personal life or work, we need to consciously shape our environments and shake them up when necessary to support the changes we want to make. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭: The busy hum of city life has made me realise how much I have appreciated the quiet of remote travel. It reminded me how important it is to find quiet moments in our daily lives and give ourselves undistracted space to think clearly and recharge. 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: Travel has got to be the ultimate test of adaptability. Navigating new cultures, environments, perspectives, and challenges demands flexibility and a willingness to adjust to the unexpected. Every new place throws a whole bunch of unexpected at you, and you’ve just got to roll with it! Embracing adaptability with a lens of opportunity helps us manage challenges more effectively and see the opportunities that come along with change. The coming week is packed with exciting client work and quality time with my team, both of which I'm really looking forward to. While I miss my adventures on the road, I'm thrilled to be back in SA for a short time, soaking up the familiar and hoping to bring fresh perspectives to everything I'm doing here.

📍Vera, Andalusia, Spain 🇪🇸 I’m not running away; I’m stepping out of my comfort zone. For the next three weeks before Christmas, I’ve decided to apply Simon Sinek’s Golden Circle (Why, How, What) to my choice of becoming a nomad. Who knows? Perhaps you’ll see a part of yourself in my journey. --- 🗣️ A question I get asked a lot: Why are you a nomad? I’ve encountered plenty of assumptions—some even suggested by professionals. One psychoanalyst speculated that I must be running away from something. Let me set the record straight: Hell, no! 😂 To understand my decision, you need to know a bit about my life before I embraced this lifestyle. I was living in Paris—working tirelessly, partying regularly, and spending every single holiday abroad (mostly on “humanitarian missions” or volunteering). The sense of fulfillment was incredible. But then, I took a step back. I realized the number of flights I was taking each year, and the size of my carbon footprint left me deeply ashamed. 😬 My lifestyle was not sustainable—not for the planet, and not even ethically consistent with my values. So I asked myself: Why are these travels so important to me? --- Sure, “humanitarian missions” often give us that savior complex high… but I wasn’t naive. I knew these efforts were rarely long-term solutions for the communities involved. In fact, some of the motivations of participants left me with more questions than answers. So, what was driving me? To be honest, I realized I loved the feeling of being part of a new community—of being welcomed, sharing in their daily lives, and deepening my understanding of their culture. It fed my curiosity and passion for anthropology. And there’s another layer to this: I thrive on the newness of relationships. I love that initial phase of discovery, the effort it takes to truly get to know someone. Once it becomes routine… well, I tend to lose interest. This isn’t new for me. Even back in Paris, I was frequently changing jobs and apartments to keep that spark of exploration alive. Maybe this is my WHY: the need for freedom, discovery, and the excitement of new beginnings. And maybe, just maybe, there’s a little bit of that in all of us. Let’s explore it together. 🌍 --- Have you ever applied the Golden Circle to your life (personal, professional, ...) ? Tell me your WHY in comments 👇🏼 --- Passionate about Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Responsible Digital Practices, I guide organizations toward impactful and sustainable change. Living a nomadic lifestyle rooted in sustainability, I'm excited to share my experiences with you to inspire new ways of thinking and working globally.

FROM A LAWYER TO A GLOBAL MOUNTAIN NOMAD UPDATE: My life is one big experiment. The theory has its nuances. Living as a global mountain nomad is so much more than just traveling—it's a lifestyle that demands responsibility, self-sufficiency, flexibility, and patience. It's a journey where you learn to thrive on your own, constantly adapting to new environments and challenges. One of the things I miss most is having a physical community for longer durations. However, being alone doesn't equate to loneliness. Solitude brings undisturbed peace and a constant reminder of what truly matters in life. Fleeting encounters can be just as meaningful as long-term relationships. Throughout my travels, I've met both good and bad people, experienced highs and lows, and each encounter and experience has contributed to my understanding of contentment in simplicity. Humans, by design, don't need much, but we do need love whether it comes from others or ourselves. I've realized that America is not the greatest nation in the world—it was marketed that way. The greatest nation is subjective and depends on what we're seeking and what our soul needs. Being away from friends doesn't weaken friendships; in many ways, the distance has strengthened them. Freedom is complex. Some days, I love it, while on others, it can be daunting. But in the end, this journey has taught me more about life, love, and the beauty of simplicity than I ever imagined. 🌿✨ Seven years later I'm still nomadic. For all these reasons, I give thanks each day.

What is my favourite country❓❓ I get this question very often! People are always very curious which country a well travelled person would choose. Sometimes it looks to me like sort of looking for a greener pastries. Sort of, is there somewhere far away a country better that what I have experienced? 🤔🤔 My response to this question often disappoint people. I don’t have a one favourite country 😅😅 The more you travel, the more you realize a world has so much to offer. Every country has something beautiful. Traveling long term is in fact a skill. A skill of enjoying details, becoming flexible and knowing how to get the most of your experience. Appreciating the differences while sharing similitudes. A skill of gratitude. So much of our experience in a country depends on our mindset and our social skills. Having said that I do have some favourite countries and my preferences. To put simply, I like spending summers in Europe and winter in warmer countries.☀️☀️ In Europe I like spending my time in Southern countries and Balkans. I think the beauty of nomadic life is actually having some variety and finding your balance to make it sustainable. What about you? Do you have a favourite country? 😅 #remotework #workfromanywhere #futureofwork #futureofliving #theremoteimpact

As a nomadic solopreneur of 14+ years, I’ve made many mistakes on my journey. What started as a leap into the unknown has become over a decade of hard-earned lessons. Through trial and error, I’ve identified 5 profound mistakes that every aspiring 50+ digital nomad should avoid at all costs. Mistake 1 - Assuming Age Limits You - Your years of experience are a unique advantage - Wisdom and maturity can help you carve out a niche younger travellers can't match Mistake 2 - Underestimating the Importance of Community - Building a global network enriches your nomadic experience - Connections with fellow travellers and locals combat isolation Mistake 3 - Neglecting Health in Your Nomadic Journey - Prioritize your well-being to fully embrace nomadic life - A healthy body and mind are crucial for long-term travel success Mistake 4 - Assuming You Need a Huge Nest Egg to Travel - Develop multiple streams of income - Master the art of geoarbitrage (living in less expensive countries) Mistake 5 - Letting Fear Prevent the Leap - Acknowledge concerns, then methodically address each one - Start with small, manageable steps to build confidence The journey begins with you; Remember: - Your age is an asset, not a limitation. - Building a community combats isolation (and creates friends for life) - Health is your passport to adventure. - Financial creativity opens doors. - Fear is natural, but it shouldn’t be the decision-maker. What’s your first step going to be?
