Ryan Paugh The whole nomad lifestyle has always intrigued me and I've talked about it here before. Today I read a post (http://bit.ly/9Bfyhz) from a Brazen blogger who is living the nomad life and they brought up an interesting thing that I have always wondered about: What do nomads call home? I think that we all require a "home" on some level even if it's just a cafe you frequent to sit down and write. So I'm wondering: How do all of you nomads out there find your feeling of home?

For me at least it is hard to pinpoint one place I call home. I started my life in the UK, lived most of it in various places around the US, have traveled/worked in West EU for over a decade and now live/work in East EU. My personal and work life have taken me to many places and I honestly don't consider just one as 'home'. I don't really feel the need to belong permanently. It is at best, wherever my heart is still and my head rests for that given journey in life. This is probably why i love the LIfe (location independent work life).

I just got back from a vacation with my girlfriend and my parents and that felt like home even though were staying in a condo that wasn't ours. When I'm with the people that matter to me, I'm the most relaxed and comfortable. Sounds like home sort of means the same thing to us, Rhonda.

JR Moreau Here's a question! Does anyone have any tips or suggestions about dealing with student loans when you're working remotely... especially when traveling abroad? I'd love to hear some stories about how people cope with paying their bills.

What do you think about the loans? Any big, sneaky ideas?

I'm currently living by Ramit Sethi's book, I Will Teach You To Be Rich, as much as I can. I'm only halfway through the book, but I'm already automating more and using more of my credit card's user benefits. I'm open to ideas and looking forward to reading your blog post.
