Bangkok totally surprised us. When doing research on where to stay in Thailand as digital nomads, we never really considered living in Bangkok.

The wifey and I just finished an action-packed 3-week backpacking trip to Palawan, so we know exactly the best places to go (and where to avoid). So whether you’re looking for the best things …
It’s frustrating, isn’t it? Dragging yourself out of bed every morning. Slaving away at a boring job. Day in and day out. All just to watch your hard-earned money magically vanish when the bills are due. It sucks. And the worst part of it all? Most of us have accepted it as “normal.” It’s just …
