What’s in my NOW? - Liam Byrnes issue #159 Countries are starting to realize that they are being measured against each other on the attractiveness scale for those mobile foreigners who come in and spread a lot of outside money around. Some nations are still figuring us out, asking for pay stubs or long-term freelance contracts from applicants that usually have neither, or hitting us up with the locals’ tax rates on a temporary visa, but “this is a very competitive market for attention” as one representative put it. Sponsors included Malaysia, Croatia, Greece, and Tenerife (Spain’s Canary Islands) officially, but there were also other people closely involved in these efforts from the Balkans, Turkey, and beyond. One notable addition that stood out was how many destinations sent representatives to this nomad fest, ambassadors for their digital nomad visas. In a world where remote work continues to expand-despite pushback from those fighting it to save commercial real estate-this looks like a great playbook for keeping everyone engaged without endless video calls. So I put Running Remote on my reading list after seeing the author, Time Doctor CMO Liam Martin, on a panel presentation. I currently have one team member traveling with me (my wife), two on another continent nine hours away, and a bunch of contractors and freelance contributors around the globe. It’s running in hundreds of airports, on transit systems, and in other gathering spaces. I especially liked the simplicity of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower scheme, which allows people who want assistance to show they need it, but in a subtle way.
In his talk on new travel trends he noted all the apps and programs that have sprung up for travelers who have mobility issues or health/mental hurdles that present challenges in moving around in public spaces. One of the speakers here was Ian from industry community Travel Massive, which I’ve been a member of for ages. Subtle Help for Travelers With Disabilities And “finding the right base” is coming up a lot more often than “becoming a permanent traveler” Still popular: the 2-euro Bulgarian beers. What has changed among the 700+ attendees since I came last year? More talk about AI and managing remote teams on the business side, more talk about community, subscription living, slow travel, life balance, and fitness on the personal side.

Run some water to see if you have unblocked your bathroom sink.Nomad Trends/Hidden Disabilities Sunflower/Attracting Remote Workers Nomadico issue #59Ī weekly newsletter with four quick bites, edited by Tim Leffel, author of A Better Life for Half the Price and The World’s Cheapest Destinations. Once the U-bend is clean, screw it back onto the pipes, using plumber’s tape to create a watertight seal if needed. Wait until all the water has drained into the container, then remove the U-bend completely and use the straightened coat hanger or wire brush to thoroughly clean it out. Then carefully undo the pipe by unscrewing the two threads. Find the U-bend under the sink (clue: it’s shaped like a U) and place your container underneath. You’ll need a small bucket or container to catch the water in, a wire coat hanger or small wire cleaning brush and, if your U-bend doesn’t have its own in-built seals, some plumber’s tape. Fortunately, it’s a relatively simple job. But on rare occasions this U-bend can become blocked and needs to be taken off and given a thorough clean. This prevents any smells from the drains coming up into the house. Underneath all sinks – as well as all baths, showers and toilets – is a U-bend. Now’s the time to get out the big guns and remove the U-bend. OK, you’ve tried plunging, pulling and dissolving, but the blockage still remains.
