Digital Nomad
I am about to teach a class from a hotel room. I am sure this is not unusual.
The TV has been set up to be my big screen. I have lights and quality audio.
I have taught a class before outdoors, on a camping ground, with people walking by. Quality internet is the limiter to being able to do this well.
Yet if there is quality internet, then the world is my playground.
I learned yesterday that about 20 countries now support a digital nomad visa. Countries you can live in legally for up to six months, working and paying your tax in your registered home country.
It is a good deal for the participating countries. They get your custom as a temporary citizen for a period, with little downside.
Meanwhile, the digital nomad can live in many countries, experiencing different cultures.
That is my future. Perhaps one or two countries a year.
It is a strange juxtaposition, a world partly open, and largely closed. The privilege of choice, which few have, to do this.
I consider the precession of being a digital nomad. The side-effects. On a personal level, a greater sensitivity and understanding of different cultures, more adventure.
On the larger systems level, in my line of work, the ability to meet people where they are brings the work we do in the Syntropic World to those who seek it and may not have the means to access it.
To be able to speak to and learn from those on the ground, to understand what they want and need.
I am certain there are many more precessional effects to Syntropic World becoming a digital nomad.
I anticipate discovery. A precessional effect of our times, impossible to imagine when I was in my twenties.
