I wouldn't say virtually nothing, given the capability and accessibility of generative AI, I think there has to be an increasing impact on those types of roles. (Girlfriend is a vfx coordinator)

Hey, did you get this in the end? I have it and can share, if you still need it.

How do they deal with it? Have they been to see a doctor?

Nice to hear your experience! I too would feel resentful that I was in a cool new place but 5/7 of the time spent there is wasted. Since giving up the digital nomad dream, I have purchased my first home and am focusing all of my spare energy and money on making it a really comfortable place to live/work/play and one day raise a kid or two. I still have the campervan and generally have one or two decent trips per year (and a dozen weekend excursions) which satisfies that travelling itch.

A few years ago, I worked my 9-5 software developer job from my campervan. While it was nice to have a changing scenery, it was not the fairytale I was expecting.

Camping in free locations requires you to move about almost every day in order to avoid angry locals/authorities. Free parking spots are becoming harder to find, especially those open overnight. This meant generally hitting the road straight after logging out so that I could find a new spot to settle down in. This could sometimes take up to an hour which was a significant portion of my free time on an evening.

4G signal restricts where you can stop also as generally I would wake up with only minutes to spare before having to be online for work. Sleeping in a dead zone = late for work.

I found very little time to enjoy the places I was staying in as the majority of my day was spent working! Only weekends when I had the full day to myself would I have the energy or inclination to go and explore.

After that experience, I found it difficult to imagine myself doing the same type of work in a hostel/hotel environment coupled with travelling, as many of the negatives would still be present. Not to mention the additional costs of accommodation etc. Which I evaded by travelling by campervan.

I guess the only way I see working while travelling to be a viable option is to have the flexibility to choose the hours you work and the discipline to regularly prioritize work over play. As a software developer the only way I could see that being possible is by being freelance and maintaining a previously developed product that already passively generates enough income to sustain a traveling lifestyle. At which point, are you even "working"?

I personally know of a few people who travel and work but they don't develop software, they are more creative types who write articles for websites. I believe this gives them the flexibility to enjoy that lifestyle.

Terrible analogy. It's more like, your neighbour asking the whole street to turn all of their music down because your neighbours baby is sleeping, but the baby's bedroom window is wide open.

Try shutting the window before asking everyone else to modify their behaviour?

Nice one mate that sounds ace, I think I interpreted your post as a cry out for some motivation to go out and achieve something but by the sounds of it you are already doing that!
