About the lecture:

Digital nomads are an extreme, and very experienced type of remote worker, that work in self-imposed isolation.

Their experience of travelling and working is now out of question, but their lives tell us a lot about the positive and negative aspects of remote work – But who are digital nomads and what happens after months and years of remote working?
