Since beginning my life as a digital nomad – almost a year ago already – I’ve received a lot of lovely emails from aspiring nomads, who are interested in the lifestyle but have concerns about finances.

自从我作为数字Nomad者开始生活(大约一年前)以来，我收到了许多有抱负的Nomad者的一封可爱的电子邮件，他们对生活方式感兴趣，但对财务状况感到担忧。

For those unfamiliar with the term, being a digital nomad is about working remotely from anywhere in the world while still making a good living.

对于那些不熟悉该术语的人来说，成为数字Nomad者是指在世界上任何地方进行远程工作，同时还要过上良好的生活。

Digital nomads are usually freelance designers, web developers, social media experts, marketing gurus or entrepreneurs, but you’re definitely not limited to those options.

数字Nomad民通常是自由设计师，Web开发人员，社交媒体专家，营销专家或企业家，但您绝对不限于这些选择。

In this post, I will elaborate on the digital nomad lifestyle and try to convince you take the plunge yourself.

在这篇文章中，我将详细介绍数字Nomad民族的生活方式，并尝试说服您自己尝试一下。

选择目的地 (Picking Your Destinations)

In the first few weeks of your trip, you might not have any income at all.

在旅行的前几周，您可能根本没有任何收入。

I would not recommend that you start your journey without any savings behind you, and I would suggest that you start in a country with a low cost of living. Eastern Europe and South-East Asia are two spectacular regions of the world to visit, and many nomads actually choose to stay there after.

我不建议您在没有任何积蓄的情况下开始自己的旅程，我建议您在生活成本较低的国家开始。 东欧和东南亚是世界上两个引人入胜的地区，许多Nomad民族实际上选择在此之后居住。

Bali (Indonesia) and Chiang Mai (Thailand) are two stunningly beautiful destinations that many digital nomads claim to be two of the most suitable locations, taking into account fast wifi speeds, cost of living, quality of living and scenic beauty.

巴厘岛(印度尼西亚)和清迈(泰国)是两个令人叹为观止的美丽目的地，许多数字Nomad民称这是两个最合适的地点，考虑到无线网络的快速上网速度，生活成本，生活质量和风景秀丽。

It’s important to remember that cheap does not mean hideous!

重要的是要记住，便宜并不意味着丑陋！

不要在飞行中全力以赴 (Don’t Blow It All On the Flights)

Depending on where you are in the world, flights can be expensive. Play it smart; use Skyscanner to find the cheapest imaginable flight to your ideal destination within the next year or so, and that will be the date that your new adventure unfolds. Prices of airfares can half or double from one day to the next so make sure that you do your research first!

取决于您身在何处，航班可能会很昂贵。 发挥聪明； 使用Skyscanner在明年左右的时间内找到飞往您理想目的地的最便宜的可想象的航班，而这正是您展开新冒险之旅的日期。 从一天到第二天，机票价格可能会翻倍或翻倍，因此请确保您先进行研究！

If your ideal destination is far away, you can split up the long-haul flight into several smaller trips. The airfare costs will be roughly the same, and you’ll have more adventures along the way.

如果您的理想目的地很远，则可以将远程航班分成几个较小的旅程。 机票费用大致相同，沿途您将有更多的冒险经历。

For instance, Flying from London to Papua New Guinea (for some reason, my ideal location) would be quite lavish, but you could spend time in Europe or Asia first and then consider making a cheaper trip to Papua New Guinea from there.

例如，从伦敦飞往巴布亚新几内亚的航班(由于某种原因，我的理想地点)会很豪华，但是您可以先在欧洲或亚洲度过一段时间，然后再考虑从那里便宜地飞往巴布亚新几内亚。

至少一个月保持原状 (Stay Put For At Least a Month)

Moving around too often will only cost you more money in flights, and as we might often forget, costly airport transfers as well.

经常走动只会使您花费更多的钱，而且我们可能经常会忘记，昂贵的机场接送服务也是如此。

Airbnb hosts will usually offer a discounted monthly rate and occasionally their own airport transfer. I recommend choosing a centrally located spot – somewhere in the city to avoid travel costs. Not to mention, you’ll enjoy working from local bars and restaurants, which again are sometimes no more expensive than eating at home.

Airbnb房东通常会提供打折的月租费率，偶尔还会提供他们自己的机场接送服务。 我建议选择一个位于城市中心的地点，以避免旅行成本。 更不用说，您会喜欢在当地的酒吧和餐馆打工，而有时候这并不比在家里吃饭贵。

像当地人一样生活，像当地人一样吃饭 (Live Like a Local, Eat Like a Local)

Don’t be boring; live like a local.

不要无聊 像当地人一样生活。

If you come from North America or Great Britain especially, you’ll find disappointment in the fact that most other countries eat better than you, and that it’s quite costly to buy ready made meals.

如果您特别是来自北美或英国，那么您会感到失望，因为大多数其他国家/地区的饮食质量都比您高，而且购买现成的餐食非常昂贵。

Instead, eat what they eat; after all, if you’re not willing to try new things you may as well not be traveling at all.

相反，吃他们吃的东西； 毕竟，如果您不愿意尝试新事物，那么您可能根本不旅行。

通过团体旅行分摊费用 (Split the Costs by Traveling in Groups)

Not only is it safer to travel in groups, but you can also save a few bucks by splitting the cost of an apartment rental. Most apartments, even those with only one bedroom, often come with a secondary couch or mattress which, if you are traveling alone, you wouldn’t be using.

团体旅行不仅更安全，而且还可以通过平分公寓租金来节省几美元。 大多数公寓，即使只有一间卧室的公寓，也常常配有辅助沙发或床垫，如果您独自旅行，就不会使用。

Naturally you can save money by sharing taxis too, but as well as that, many tourist attractions and other cultural experiences (elephant riding in Thailand springs to mind!) offer discounts if you can convince a buddy (or several) to do it with you.

自然地，您也可以通过共享出租车来省钱，而且，如果您可以说服一个(或几个)伙伴与您一起做，那么许多旅游景点和其他文化体验(泰国的大象骑车之旅就来了！)提供了折扣。 。

用您的史诗般的技能来满足基本需求 (Trade Your Epic Skills For Basic Needs)

Couchsurfing has a bad reputation, but for digital nomads it’s a lifestyle. It doesn’t have to be unpleasant. In fact there’s a very useful website that can connect you with couches all around the world.

Couchsurfing的声誉很差，但是对于数字Nomad民族来说，这是一种生活方式。 不必令人不快。 实际上，有一个非常有用的网站可以将您与世界各地的沙发连接起来。

In a true couchsurfing fashion, your host can show you the town, offer you lifts to touristy areas and even accompany you to dinner.

您的主人可以用一种真正的沙发冲浪方式向您展示小镇，为您提供前往旅游区的升降机，甚至陪伴您共进晚餐。

You can return the favor by bartering your skills, instead of paying money; something that’s even more commonplace for those who stay in low-budget hostels.

您可以通过交换技能而不是花钱来回报您的青睐。 对于那些住在廉价旅馆的人来说，这种情况更为普遍。

Non-techie surfers usually apply to help with cleaning or hostessing, but you can totally extend your skills as a web designer or social media expert, for example, in exchange for a free room. It’s a lot more commonplace than you might think!

非技术人员的冲浪者通常会申请帮助进行清洁或招待，但是您可以完全扩展自己作为网页设计师或社交媒体专家的技能，例如，以换取免费房间。 它比您想象的要普遍得多！

额外提示：何时辞职 (Bonus Tip: When to Quit Your Job)

As I mentioned already, you absolutely must save up some money before you decide to do this – just in case.

正如我已经提到的那样，为以防万一，在决定这样做之前，您绝对必须节省一些钱。

Also, a little fact that you’ll almost always overlook is that if you don’t earn enough money during the annual tax year, at least in some countries, you’ll be entitled to claim some tax back.

还有，按照权利一些税收后退了一点事实，你几乎总是忽略的是，如果你不在每年的纳税年度赚到足够的钱，至少在一些国家，你将有资格。

Make sure to quit right before you hit that threshold (which is around £11,000 in the United Kingdom, $11,000 in Canada and $18,000 in Australia), and you’ll receive a surprising check months later!

确保您在达到该门槛之前就退出(在英国约为11,000英镑，在加拿大约为11,000英镑，在澳大利亚约为18,000英镑)，几个月后您会收到惊人的支票！

结论 (Conclusion)

Being location independent isn’t as hard as you might think.

位置独立并不像您想的那样难。

Now that we’ve talked about ways that we can save money as a digital nomad, it’s time to talk about how we can make money as a nomad.

既然我们已经讨论了如何以数字Nomad者的方式省钱，现在该谈论如何以Nomad者的方式赚钱了。
