"Digital nomads" is a term referring to young people whose lives revolve around travel, experiencing and exploring new cultures, and being closely connected to technology. They belong to a generation that prefers freelance work, typically in fields such as media, marketing, virtual assistants, design, IT, tutoring, or consulting. This generation spends most of their time traveling, immersing themselves in new places, yet can work from anywhere, anytime to cover their personal expenses. Therefore, they are known as "digital nomads."
However, not every country is an ideal destination for these "digital citizens," as their specific jobs depend on internet connectivity, a reliable power supply, and other basic amenities.
