What is your favorite style of travel?

Today I am joined by Tim Marting to dive into what it means to be a “Slowmad” and the biggest benefits of spending more time in a new country. 

Tim is the co-founder and COO of Citizen Remote, an online community geared toward helping its members achieve their travel dreams. It is a platform built by digital nomads, for digital nomads that specializes in obtaining Visas, unearthing hidden gem experiences, and building relationships abroad. 

If you have ever dreamed of spending quality time in a new country, you will not want to miss this episode. Tim shares all about why he loves settling into a new country, the challenges that arise when adjusting to a new culture, why it is important to be bored, the importance of connecting with the local community, and so much more.

What intention have you set for the day? I'd love to hear what it is and hope you will share by sending me an audio message.
