The Final Frontier – An Interview with Digital Nomad Kyle Del Bonis

*Interview Highlights*

Kyle’s cheap travel tip: Join a training program that requires it.

Why travel? Make international friends.

Kyle’s path to the location independent lifestyle:

   1) Get a portable home – like his van Cassie

   2) Negotiate a remote working agreement with your company after you have proved yourself to be a valuable player.

   3) Pimp out your vehicle with solar panels, and use a wheel chair battery to store the power or YOU COULD DIE.

   4) Document your life with a blog and connect with people on a real level using social media sites like Couchsurfing.com, FourSquare.com, and Twitter.com.

   5)  Meet the altruistic people on Couchsurfing.com and travel more.

   6) Change your life and do what you want while things are not exactly ideal.

Who is Tim Ferriss?

I think that this presentation that Timothy Ferriss did at the TED conference in 2008 really explains who he is and some of the strategies outlined in The Four Hour Workweek which has become the bible of lifestyle design.

My favorite quote from the lecture is: (Fear is Your Friend) “A lot of time it shows you want you shouldn’t do, more often than not it shows you exactly what your should do.”
