Irina Papuc is originally from Romania, but lived in the UK, until she made the decision to live as a digital nomad. Before that, she already worked with digital marketing, an agency in which she serves as a co-founder, Galactic Fed.
For a long time, work allowed her to travel the world, until she realized she didn't want to stay in one place anymore.
It was then that she made the bold decision to invest in the life of a “digital nomad”, someone who is always traveling without leaving work. Clearly, having a job with the possibility of being remote was one of the main factors that enabled this lifestyle. However, it was still possible to make new adaptations.
In this way, Irina tells how it was necessary to adapt to a life with lower costs and more planning. Soon, she embraced minimalism and resolved to dispense with any other unnecessary expense. However, the experience of being in several places allowed her to have much more fun than spending a lot in one place.
Working in housing exchange
Another very important factor that allowed this possibility of being a digital nomad was working for housing. In this case, Irina decided to be an animal caretaker, a kind of nanny for pets when their owners travel. Thus, she can stay at the home of the owners of these animals and still enjoy the company of her four-legged friends.
Irina even says that this job allows her to spend more time in places, which is very economical. After all, the price of tickets, by plane, bus or train, is usually quite high, which greatly limits the experience of those who want to live traveling. In this way, she managed to visit more than 40 countries in just a few years.
