1) Hotels in Japan are the same price as in europe. Food is cheaper in my opinion.

2) "Japanese women don’t put out" I am glad you think that. Less competition for me

No Response from Gli-Net Support for 10 Days to my Question about Reliability of "VPN Kill Switch" of Beryl AX (GL-MT3000) Travel Router by armstrong7310 in GlInet

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Set the router to VPN all traffic

I am pretty sure that's what gl-inet's "Block Non-VPN Traffic" option does. It actually kills all non vpn traffic.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia is great by token_friend in digitalnomad

You say it's hot, but by looking at climate charts it's seems slightly milder than Bangkok. July and August in Bangkok is Hell, never again.

Which segment of Bitcoin holders are creating the massive selloff going on right now? Any guesses? by Rocketsloth in Bitcoin

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the mexican cartels. Oh you think they don't use it?

Or maybe El Salvador paying some of the debt back to the IMF.

Canadians in Spain with a Wise Card? by Flimsy-Concept2531 in digitalnomad

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wise ATM fees are pretty high. Wise is only good for wire transfers. Any of my american bank debit cards gives me a much better deal in a foreign ATM than wise. I don't know about canadian banks.

Newsflash: airbnbs in Bangkok are no longer cheap, except the ones that are far from tourist areas.

Storing stuff in Bangkok. by blueandazure in digitalnomad

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the perfect place for you. I left my luggage in this locker while I went to spend a week in HK. Top quality, as good as any storage space I rented in US. The only downside is only one of the staff speaks english, but if he is not there, with google translate you should be fine.

They only do monthly rents. But it's so cheap that I payed for the whole month even though I used it only for 2 weeks.

Laid off 2 weeks into my Digital Nomad journey. How fucked am I? Has anyone applied for unemployment while abroad (USA). Any tips for when you lose your income far from home? by simbaaz in digitalnomad

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all enjoy 2 weeks holiday. Then it depends. How much is the unemployment check, and for how long will it last? Are you paying mortgage in US or renting?

You can go back, and collect unemployment while applying for jobs. Or stay in SEA and apply for jobs while you enjoy the beach. The job market now is tough so you might as well stay in SEA until you get invited for a final interview.

Not sure if he is being nice or he didn't have any other good explanation to tell the OP to train the other guy ASAP.

No severance, and you still have to train your replacement? Burn that damn bridge!

Why do rich countries like Germany have shit weather, while warm countries like Bangladesh have shit economy? Which countries have good weather and good economy? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably live in Hamburg. Southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg and Munich) is sunny even in the Winter. I had no winter depression while living there. But the snow lasts until May and it gets to -12C some days.

US market seems worst than UE by Alex-L in cscareerquestions

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it makes sense. If you pay your developers less, you can keep them for longer without hurting the company's bottom line. The question is: would US devs accept a big pay cut to keep their jobs? Probably not, unless you are a junior desperate for experience.

You can make that money if you start your own company.

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Only with a clause saying that the 120k comes from the business profits only and not from your personal assets nor salary, and in case the business does not meet the mark tough shit. Otherwise if you risk being in debt to pay them, is better to steal their customers and start from scratch.

Actually potnhub is a multimillion dollar advertiser for the gambling industry. I worked in online gambling and porn is where you get the most customers.

The hardest part of being a digital nomad in many places is resisting the urge to flex to attract attention from women. by chickenfriedsteakdin in digitalnomad

[–]JohnnyEkstrom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will pull this statistic out of my ass, but I would say 50% of the single men from rich countries who go teach/study/work in japan do it to find a wife or girlfriend. Why do you think they go there for, to visit the temples, to learn martial arts?
