Free as a Global Nomad
Free as a Global Nomad: An Old Tradition with a Modern Twist | Päivi Kannisto, Santeri Kannisto
2 posts | 1 read
How does it feel to be forever on the move? Who are global nomads? Why did they leave their former lives? How do they finance their travels? And, ultimately, what is the meaning of life for them? In this book our fellow global nomads, travelers who wander the world without a permanent job or home, answer these intriguing questions. They are modern-day adventurers and vagrants, no one's property. Global nomads value freedom and mastery of their own lives. Their ideas draw from the everyday life and dreams of explorers, philosophers, and vagrants, some notable pioneers including Alexander the Great, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and George Orwell. This book shows how global nomads revive the ancient ideals of a simple and beautiful life. In the process, home, nationality, freedom, and travel get a new meaning that will permanently change the way in which we perceive the world.

Such a unique book! Part a memoir, part a history book and part society commentary. I would recommed this to everyone who is interested in a real nomad life. I haven't really read anything like this before but would like to find more books like this. ðŸ˜

I've got flu so I have plenty of time to read. I'm alternating between Youtube and this. I've never read anything like this it's part a memoir and part a history book about world travellers. It works really well and makes a perfect light travel book about being a nomad! ðŸ˜
