The digital nomad lifestyle of being able to slow travel while working from anywhere is a dream experience that many people want to explore for several reasons. It gives busy remote working professionals a meaningful opportunity to integrate a sense of adventure into their life; it gives an opportunity to learn about the nuances of a destination deeply; and it also gives what many consider to be an unparalleled sense of freedom. 

‍

While the digital nomad life is extremely popular (currently estimated at 35 Million people and growing!), it doesn’t come without challenges to start a nomadic journey in a new destination. 

‍

Logistics wise- it takes time to figure out where to stay, how to get around, and to plan out the most interesting local experiences to do. Socially, it takes time to make connections and build friendships with locals and fellow nomads in town. Impact wise, it can be a challenge figuring out the best way to meaningfully support the local community while you’re there.

Purchasing travel insurance is a key step in supporting local communities around the world when you’re digital nomading. By purchasing travel insurance, you strongly lessen any potential financial burdens to hospitals and medical providers in your nomadic destination should you get ill or injured on the road. 

‍

Insured Nomads provides health insurance, travel insurance, and trip cancellation to remote workers, travelers, digital nomads & expats. Insured Nomads also offers an app called “Inc by Insured Nomads” which is a comprehensive travel insurance and assistance program to keep you protected on the go.

Once you have your travel insurance secured, Adventurely can help with many of the living, socializing, planning, adventuring and integration needs that encompass the rest of your digital nomad journey- and at a relatively affordable price point. 

‍
