What if the hardest part of becoming a digital nomad isn't finding work or booking flights but knowing which countries actually want you there?

Ryan sits down with Archie, an "accidental digital nomad" who's been exploring Europe for three years with his girlfriend. After surviving a nightmare bed bug situation in Spain, Archie learned the hard way what to look for in an Airbnb.

His girlfriend's insider knowledge from working at Airbnb reveals the tricks that can save you from similar disasters and even get you refunds when things go wrong.

Archie breaks down why digital nomads aren't just tourists passing through and how they are actually boosting local economies.
