I have gone through five very different main phases shaping my background for writing: in a family corporate business, at university, traveling as a nomad, expat life with a local small business, and recently, starting a new phase working remotely with online content creation. I started on a nomadic lifestyle over twenty years ago, around 2000, but eventually decided to live in the Dominican Republic, where I lived as an expat for fifteen years and had a local real estate business. After high school in 1988, I worked for my family’s business, the Pressalit Group, in Aarhus, Denmark, for five years, including a two-year trainee period in Hamburg, Germany. Then, I started at university in Copenhagen and finished my law degree in 2000.
A couple of years ago, I heard the term digital nomad, which is someone who travels and works from a laptop without having a permanent home, and I realized I had been one on and off for almost twenty years. However, for the first several years, it was not with much of the digital as I had limited internet access, and it was before social media. Typically, you work mainly by yourself and only loosely belong to communities. I mentioned the term to an American from the expat community in the Dominican Republic. He said, “Ha, they finally found a term for it, ah. A digital nomad. That’s like sexing up an unemployed guy with a laptop who knows some technology and a bit of business.” I thought that was hilarious. I have known many people with those characteristics over the years. Some were independently wealthy, and others lived from hand to mouth. It characterizes me more and more, actually.
I send out my free publication by email using Mailchimp and I publish it as a LinkedIn newsletter and as an article on the platform Medium.
