Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Hybrid Workers, and Travellers. I’ll be honest — my last trip to Europe wasn’t great. But this time, I came to Paris for a friend’s wedding and decided to stay for a full month as a solo traveler. And… surprise – I really enjoyed it. From the walkable streets to…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Hybrid Workers, and Travellers. Osaka, Japan often sits in Tokyo’s shadow — but don’t be fooled. This city packs a punch with vibrant food streets, easy access to Kyoto, and a more relaxed energy. I spent a month here on a mid-range budget, and spoiler alert: I still think about…

Monthly Breakdown for Digital Nomads, Hybrid Workers, and Travellers. Ah — Bangkok, Thailand. A magnet for expat living, digital nomads, and returning visitors alike. But why is it so attractive? If you’re researching Bangkok’s cost of living as a digital nomad, here’s my honest breakdown from one full month of living in the city. From…
