The digital nomad movement has become a huge trending topic on social media, and it is still growing. A digital nomad is someone to earns money 100% via internet, which allows them live and work anywhere in the world (given that they have reliable wifi connection). These remote based jobs are either online businesses, freelancing/independent contract jobs, or a remote position for a company. This new style of living and working has gained attention from many major business and media outlets.

Many traditional companies are starting to catch on to the idea of having employees telecommute since it can provide benefits to the employer. While some people may not be interested in the travel side of the digital nomad lifestyle, working remotely allows more flexibility and can create better work-life balance.
