Seasonal working nomad | Breakdown of 2019
NOMADIC LIFE
breakdown of 2019
Since September 2016 I have not had a permanent place to live, nor stayed anywhere for longer than 6 months. I often get questions about what life looks like for me as a seasonal working nomad, how often I am home, and how much I travel each year. Although each year since I left has looked very different I thought it would be fun to do a little breakdown of 2019 to give you an insight into how a year for me could look!

In 2019 I spent 55 full days at my home base, my mother’s house in Sweden. I visited 8 different countries, had 3 different jobs in various locations, and met many wonderful souls throughout the year. 2020 will be very different from last year and I am both terrified and excited to see how everything will play out. With everything going on, I will try to do the best I can with the hand that’s been dealt and I hope you’re doing the same! I also hope you’re staying safe and healthy wherever in the world you might currently be. Sending virtual hugs your way!
That was everything for now, and until next time, take care! xo Nathalie
