Hello listeners – I’d first like to wish you all a very happy holidays wherever you are in the world! I hope you’ve been able to spend some time with friends and family and do something special. I am lucky to currently be in Buenos Aires, Argentina where the summer has just started and I have been enjoying all the outdoor dining options that we have in the city. If anyone is looking for a great place to escape winter in the Northern Hemisphere, I’ve always found Argentina to be a great option.

I first met today’s guest, Muj, on the Nomad Cruise in November 2019. What really struck me about Muj when I met him, besides the fact that he was charming and handsome, was that he actually wasn’t a digital nomad YET he was on a Nomad cruise. What I later learned was that Muj had already been on a mission for over a year to surround himself with digital nomads in the vacation time that he had from his corporate job and see if digital nomad life was for him and if he could get inspired to finally take the plunge and become a digital nomad himself.

Little did we know that when the cruise ended, we were only a couple of months away from corporate office workers around the world being forced to work from home, and it was his experience during the pandemic that really convinced Muj to get serious about becoming fully remote.

What I really love about this conversation with Muj is how practical we get on the many things that can come up when you consider actually starting to work from the road including time differences, relationships, and how to find new community. Without further ado, here’s Muj.
