5/28/2023 0 Comments Whats a nomadWith the pandemic happening now we saw a resurgence of theses terms, especially the digital nomad one. So a digital nomad could use the condo surfing as well to find a place in house sitting as describe in the last line above inspired by Kristin Colella definition we co-created our definition. Digital nomads can use wireless Internet, smartphones, Voice over IP, and/or cloud-based applications to work remotely where they live or travel.Ī Digital nomad may use co-working or co-living spaces, cafes, house sitting agreements, and shared offices. The foundation of the digital nomad movement is remote work, allowing people to do their work at home or otherwise through the Internet. Let’s see why as we continued our proposition. A Condo Surfer is not automatically a Digital Nomad. You literally surf from renting a condo to another. You want more freedom and kind of feel at home and pay for what you need while traveling and stay at one spot. You also maybe want to travel more responsibly and without the huge fees of the all-inclusive in box package that’s not your way of traveling. So it is basically someone who like to travel as a Digital Nomad or just want a temporary place of leisure without the hustle of owning properties all over the world. On that, we’d loved to read from you in the comment: tell us your views, ways and experiences of both of these persona! What is a Condo Surfer ?Ī person that engage on the activity of renting and moving from condo to condo or appartement to town house in the World on a monthly or weekly bases. Do we think they’re the best definition ? We let you the judge of that by experimenting yourself with your own ways living it. This is not THE definition, but rather ONE to bring you meaningful value. This is Agile Lounge and myself proposition from our experience. Now let’s have an objective definition of those 2 terms. So, as put in the experience story above: do your story by asking yourself why you would like to be a digital nomad and/or a condo surfer. Isn’t the Scrum and Modern Agile Value of creating a self-organized environnement? They let local and states government and people self-managed and nothing is imposed nor prescribe. However they stay open for business and let people work and be open. The restrictions are as heavy as in our countries up north, even more so at some venue. Mexican seems also to have a more responsible government that trust its people and business to do the right thing and treat them as mature responsible adults. I am here in the Mexican Caribbean since September and as I was speaking with other traveler and digital nomads from the US and Canada: we feel safer here then in Cleveland Ohio or Montréal Québec. What’s the contradiction telling you ? Simple: you are a responsible adult and you have free will to decide for yourself On the other end, you are flood by emails from airlines that offer you the best package to take your vacations in Mexico. You ear your government telling you that non-essentiel travel aren’t a good idea. I would like to swap my home office for a beachfront condo andĬreate a travel-work experience so I can be highly motivated thus more productive and happier So what is a Digital Nomad and what’s the difference with a Condo Surfers ? Is there a difference ? The chicken or the eggs ? More importantly how business agility and conscious leadership should help you create this new way of traveling and working into a new lifestyle of freedom. I will also be of help for Condo Surfers that needs references for traveling outside the box. My path of knowing thyself and that I was a whole being not just my job nor my enterprise was there.Ĭombining my experience of International event organizer, customer centric designer and scrum agile mindset trainer and coach over 2 decades, I am now co-actively creating Agile Travel as my Digital Nomad Concierge services. As an entrepreneur and still student back then, living an international delight life, this all appealed to me. This was also at that moment I had been pull in to the idea and concept of non-existence work-life balance. I myself been introduce to it while working at Sant Antoni de Portmany, Ibiza, Spain in 1997 while welcoming guests to a friend condo complex 3 blocks from Café del Mar.Ī Swedish couple that weren’t in vacation but rather working mostly online and combining travel and working introduce me to the term Digital Nomad. Would you love to adopt a new way of working, traveling and living ?ĭo you think Digital Nomadism and Condo Surfing just happened over night at the corner when the cat down the road of Covid19 showed up ?
