Planning the dream, one step at a time—no overpromises, just real talk.

Hey, I'm Nomad Dee.

I love traveling slow, working remotely (or dreaming about it), and finding ways to make incredible travel experiences actually affordable.

This little corner of the internet is where I share the unfiltered reality of travel and location independence, whether you're planning a two-week adventure or considering a complete lifestyle change

What You'll Find Here

When I'm not daydreaming about my next destination, I'm researching unique travel experiences that most people miss. I dig through visa requirements and local insights to find places worth your time and money – from once-in-a-lifetime wonders like Turkmenistan's "Gates of Hell" to affordable holiday destinations where your budget stretches further.

I'm drawn to destinations with character – hidden gems, cultural hotspots, and places experiencing dramatic changes (like those Italian villages selling €1 homes). You'll find detailed guides covering everything from vacation-worthy spots to countries offering incentives for long-term stays.

Oh, and I have a slightly obsessive habit of finding those perfect little food stalls and cafés where locals linger for hours. You know, the ones that never make it to the travel guides but somehow serve the best food in town.

My Approach

I believe slow travel is the only way to truly experience a place. Racing through tourist checkpoints just to say "been there, done that" seems exhausting to me. Whether it's a two-week holiday or a month-long stay, I'd rather get to know the rhythm of a neighborhood, become a regular at the local coffee shop, and maybe pick up a few phrases in the local language.

And let's be real about money – I'm looking for ways to make meaningful travel work without endless resources. Sustainable budgets that don't burn through savings are kind of my obsession. I want to help build travel experiences with more depth and connection, not just quick, forgettable visits to overcrowded hotspots.

What matters most to me is finding those genuine connections with places and people. Because what's the point of traveling if you're not experiencing something authentic?

Let's Connect

I'm still figuring this out too. This blog is where I share what I'm learning about travel – from once-in-a-lifetime adventures to affordable destinations for digital nomads and everyone in between.

I'm not an expert with years of experience, but I'm good at cutting through the hype to find practical information we can actually use. Consider this a space where we explore possibilities together, with no false promises or exaggerated expertise.
