Hi! I’m Nicola
Welcome to my blog about remote work and travel
If you’re trying to land your dream remote job, plan your next trip, or just figure out how to incorporate more travel into your life, you’ll find plenty of tips (and a few “don’t make the same mistake I did” bloopers) here.
And if Portugal happens to be on your list, happy day! I’ve been based here since 2021, and I’d love to talk your ear off about all my favorite recommendations. So grab a coffee or a glass of vinho verde, and I hope you’ll stick around and wander with me.
