Practical Information - how to Apply for a Visa?

`The World is full of Surprises - but how do we actually Get there?

While there is an overload of information on the combined lifestyle of working and traveling available on Google, TikTok, Instagram and the rabbit hole that the World Wide Web is – often, the most practical information is missing. Like, do I need a visa for this country? What should you expect to spend per month? How suitable is this country for working travelers?

If you are a digital nomad (someone who has an online business or someone who is employed, but works remotely), you will need a different kind of visa than you do if you are looking to work abroad (for example, you want to work in a bar in Vietnam or on a farm in Australia). Click on the country that's next on your bucket list to find an overview of the different visas.
