The stereotypical persona of a digital nomad depicted on YouTube or Instagram is usually a young traveler working with a laptop on a paradisical beach, sipping on a coconut. However, things have changed since the pandemic. A new movement has risen within the digital nomad community, with many people referring to themselves as “anywhere workers.”
These types of workers are a new breed of digital nomads that likely work remotely with a stable job — and many even travel with their families.
The differences between a traditional office worker and a digital nomad go well beyond location independence. A nomadic lifestyle requires a different attitude towards work and overall habits. Traditional office workers, for instance, typically adhere to fixed schedules, often following a 9-to-5 routine with occasional overtime. Most digital nomad workers, on the other hand, embrace flexible work hours, especially if they work in web3.
