Half a year of digital nomad life summary: Love grants freedom, exploration leads to self-discovery.

Half a year ago, I officially embarked on the life of a digital nomad, with Bangkok as my first stop. Time flies, and six months have passed. I have already adapted to this free and fulfilling lifestyle. Today, I want to summarize my experiences in the hope of inspiring friends who are considering starting a digital nomad lifestyle.

Visa, Study, and New Friends: A One-Click Threefold English Class
To solve my visa issues, I enrolled in an English class in Bangkok. The cost is comparable to hiring an agency to process the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV), but I get a "triple win" experience: first, I successfully resolve my visa issue, meeting my residence requirements in Bangkok for a year; second, I improve my speaking skills. My reading and listening in English are acceptable, but my speaking is not fluent enough due to the lack of a foreign environment, which is particularly important in the Web3 industry where English communication is crucial. The course gives me more opportunities to speak; third, I make new friends. Most of my classmates are preparing for studying abroad, and their levels are quite good. There are also students from China and other countries who come specifically to Bangkok to learn English, making it very cost-effective. Interestingly, with my long yellow hair, foreign classmates often say they can't tell I'm Chinese and think I look like a mix between a Japanese and a Swiss person. What do you think?

Efficient Work and Multiculturalism: The Story of Foldable Screens and Shared Office Spaces
As a digital nomad, my daily work mainly involves coding, trading, and creating content. A single screen is too inefficient for me, and I have another monitor at home, so I used to work from home, which felt a bit lonely. Later, I got a folding monitor, which is simply a productivity tool for mobile office work! Now, I work every day in the shared office space of my apartment, often surrounded by "colleagues" from the UK, Russia, and Thailand. Once, they saw me often coming and going early and late and couldn't help but ask, "Are you overworking? Aren't you tired?" I smiled and said, "Although overworking is common in our country, I love what I do, and I'm working for myself." This passion makes me feel motivated every day. My British friend sighed and said, "I want to be a game streamer, but my family always thinks it's not reliable. You're really lucky to be able to do what you love." Making a living doing what you love is such a precious freedom.

Love and Freedom: The Meaning of Education Lies in Finding Oneself
This reminds me of a saying: the true purpose of education is to help everyone find their interests and passions. When you do things that excite you every day, time seems no longer a constraint, but rather a pleasure. I enjoy the sense of achievement when the logic becomes clearer while coding, the challenges of analysis and decision-making in trading, and the resonance with readers when creating content. These passions connect my digital nomad life, making me feel grounded and happy on my journey of freedom.

The Slow Life in Bangkok: Sunsets by the Pool and Inner Peace
The Bangkok apartment has great amenities, with a gym and pool in the building. Every day around 4 or 5 PM, I go to the gym to work out, and by the time I'm done, it's sunset. I lie on a deck chair by the pool, watching the sunset in the sky, the orange-red light spilling over the water's surface, and a gentle breeze blowing by, filling me with an indescribable sense of peace and satisfaction.

In conclusion: Explore the world and meet the real you.
The biggest realization of my life as a digital nomad over the past six months is that passion is the best driving force, and exploration is the key to self-discovery. By stepping out and embracing this diverse world, I not only witnessed different cultures and lifestyles, but I also came to understand myself better through each interaction and experience. The process of exploring the world is actually about gradually digging into my true self; true fulfillment is not found in external recognition or material possessions, but in discovering and feeling from the depths of my own heart.
