Digital nomads - people who travel around the world and work remotely - is a widespread

trend for younger generations. 4.8 million Americans described themselves as digital

nomads in the recent MBO Partners State of Independence Research Brief. While, 27% of

11% said they hope to.

in a small cubicle, make small talk and work set hours that don’t allow them the flexibility to

choose how they live their lives
