I’ve been traveling continuously for 18 months, spending 1–2 months in each country (Mexico, Thailand, Colombia, Portugal). I don't stay 183 days anywhere. Some friends tell me I'm effectively tax-free, but others say my home country (UK) still considers me tax resident. How do you actually establish legal tax residency when you don't stay in one place?

Im a 25M living in UAE, how can i obtain a fully remote job and travel to asia as a digital nomad? I work as a customer success manager-account manager- implementation manager for a medical software company (yes i do alll)

For years, I’ve wanted to relocate to a foreign country to work and learn their language/culture. However, I don’t have a plan on how I’ll do it. I currently work as an RPN (LPN) making $5000 CAD monthly. I also have a TEFL certificate. I don’t want to sacrifice the good income I am making to work as an English teacher abroad. Thinking of maybe saving $100k and then teaching English? Or is my nursing education useful in other countries? A different remote job somehow?? Cannot decide haha

I’ve been working remotely from Estepona for a few months now, and one of the things that surprised me most is that going out on a boat isn't just for "superyachts" — there are reasonable options if you know where to look.

Context: I work in the local nautical sector (Costa del Sol Charter), so I know how things work behind the scenes, but I'm writing this from the perspective of "I want to disconnect for a day without spending a fortune."

What I learned while planning it:

• Booking 2–3 days in advance during mid-season is enough; in July and August, you need to plan further ahead.
• A catamaran is a better choice than a motorboat if the goal is "relaxing" rather than "going fast" — more space, more stability, and better for keeping the laptop closed and actually ignoring it.
• The feeling of being away for a couple hours disconnected from work and problems in the middle of the sea with a sunset can be revitalizing to keep up with your daily work.

If anyone else is in digital nomad mode around the area and wants to swap notes on spots or plans, I'm happy to help out here.

I’m a non-EU citizen living in Germany on a student residence permit. A few people suggested that I could register my business together with an EU citizen.

Has anyone here actually done this? What are the main pros and cons, and was it a good solution for you?

I’d especially like to hear from anyone who was in a similar situation.
