How has the slomadism trend taken off since Covid?
About this episode
According to an August 2023 report by human resources company MBO Partners, the number of Americans considering themselves digital nomads increased by 131% between 2019 and 2022. That means they can travel worldwide while staying connected to their work wherever they are. The Covid-19 pandemic led to remote work being normalised, when it had already been growing thanks to factors like globalisation and the digitisation of work. However, some digital nomad workers are now tired of being on the move all year around. As a result, many have chosen to adapt their lifestyle accordingly, turning to "slomadism." What’s the difference between digital nomads and slomads? Is the lifestyle financially beneficial for slomads too? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
