Description

How can you create a more balanced, location-independent life?

Podcast host and author of Digital Nomads for Dummies Kristin Wilson talks about the evolution of her travel lifestyle from expat to digital nomad and the unique challenges and rewards of living a location-independent life. Our conversation covers a wide range of topics related to digital nomadism, lifestyle design, and personal growth.

Over the last 20 years, Kristin Wilson has lived and worked in over 63 countries. Her journey began with an unexpected move to Costa Rica, where she lived as an expat before transitioning to a nomadic lifestyle. Kristin's passion for travel and expertise in helping others relocate and work remotely has made her a leading voice in the digital nomad community. Her podcast, Traveling with Kristin, shares how to move abroad and design your life for more flexibility, travel, and free time. 

Kristin’s story provides practical advice on managing burnout, finding balance in a nomadic life no matter where you are on your journey, and embracing change. You’ll also hear about her favorite countries for various experiences, the role of music in life, and even some tips for making money on YouTube. Whether you're an aspiring traveler or an experienced nomad, you'll find valuable insights to help you as you build your travel lifestyle.
