hey, i'm Andrey.
since i landed in Bangkok about 15 years ago, i've been living some version of the digital nomad life -- before i even had a name for it.
i've lived in 6 countries -- Finland, Thailand, Mexico, and a few in between. worked in tech for 15 years. built things, joined startups, did the whole in-and-out cycle with office jobs more times than i'd like to admit.
for most of those years, i was doing the digital nomad thing part-time -- a month here, a longer trip there, always with a home base i kept paying rent for whether i was using it or not. it worked, kind of. but it always felt like i was borrowing time from a life i hadn't actually committed to.
the real shift wasn't a single moment. it was more of a slow accumulation. i kept noticing that the income part -- remote work, schedule flexibility -- was the actual constraint. not courage. not which country to pick first. not the perfect moment. once that clicked, the path got a lot clearer.
last year i made it official. gave up my Helsinki apartment -- the last real anchor -- packed everything into hand luggage, and started moving. not urgently. one or two months per place, mostly through Latin America and the US.
what surprised me most wasn't the logistics. visas, banking, taxes -- those are just problems, and problems get solved eventually. it was how much quieter everything got once i stopped maintaining a life in a city i wasn't really living in anymore.
what i'm building now is the structured version of what took me 15 years to piece together. the sequence that actually works, the honest tradeoffs, the boring stuff nobody writes about because it doesn't make a good reel.
i help people in their 30s do this without burning their career, savings, or nervous system in the process. usually people with a solid job they want to make remote, some skepticism about the "just quit and go" advice, and enough sense to want an actual plan before they move 😅
