This blog is about me trying the “digital nomad” lifestyle. This is a members-only blog, as explained more on the “paywall” explanation page.

I started my “digital nomading” blog on a different platform, using a pseudonym instead of making it members-only, but I realized that platform had different risks… like, it might disappear with little warning. So, I looked at Patreon, tried a couple other things, and finally decided to set up my first WordPress blog – despite once saying I would never use WordPress!

Posts (like this one) that are tagged “prior-post” were originally posted on an earlier blogging platform. They should have an original posting date at the top, but I’m adding them manually, so that leaves room for inconsistencies.

If you somehow arrived here looking for some of my fantasy or science fiction stories, you’ll find some on Gumroad, or you can just look for my books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, etc. Or, ask your friendly local librarian?

However, if you’re interested in my experiences wandering the world while being gainfully employed, you’re in the right place!

This is one of few public-access posts here. If you want to read more, check out the membership tiers. (I highly recommend the cheapest, but I’m not here to tell you how to live your life!)
