But, we got you! Let’s try to make use of the rest of the month as much as we can.

Your dose of Travel, Remote Work and Productivity is waiting ☕️

TRAVEL ✈️

5 Essential Steps to Becoming a Successful Digital Nomad: A Starter Guide for Travel and Remote Work

Becoming a Digital Nomad was not a life goal that we both had.

It was definitely not something we planned for.

It was an accidental adventure that we both decided on embarking on when the opportunity presented itself.

PRODUCTIVITY 💥

We have been using Akiflow for the past couple of months to automate our process of work and build systems around getting tasks done. Read Dulitha’s take on Akiflow 👇
