Nico, digital nomad, born and raised in Italy.
Grew up believing life was about following the path my culture laid out: university, prestigious job, money, family. I lived that way but felt a deep inner discomfort.
Got a master's in computer science, but didn't really see my whole life as a programmer. I was actually craving a joyful less conventional life. It was a challenging time. I started reading about personal growth, travel, spirituality, and joined a meditation group, feeling energies I'd never experienced before.
I began solo traveling with one-way tickets to explore the world and myself. Worked in Canada, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Australia as a carpenter, baker, waiter, farmer, gardener, and English teacher. Immersed myself in cultures, staying with locals, and started a blog and a podcast to share my inner journey.
And now I live on my own terms: travelling as a digital nomad, attending spiritual retreats, and planning my next vanlife!Interests
