Returning from a European holiday to Australia feels sickening, especially just as Summer is about to start up there.
All I can think about is the feasibility of spending 3~4 months a year up there during Summer and coming back to Australia the remainder of the year.

The major problem is work. You'd be hard-pressed to find a company that allows over 2 months away annually in one shot every year.
Australian salaries are much healthier than European jobs too, so the work must be based in Australia.
There's also the problem of meeting times (probably not an issue if a global job has the same meeting at different hours to accommodate global staff).

Residency and taxes are another problem, but I'd figure it out.

How do you manage to reside where you want in the world while keeping a big strong Australian salary-tier job which doesn't care about where or when you do your work?

Asian time zones are flipped from America. 8:30 am in America is 8:30 pm in Asia, or just about.
If you work 9-5, you'll have time neither for day activities nor for nightlife

Never had an issue, 4-5AM I prep for the gym work out till about 7AM, grab breakfast and head to some place I want to see around 830-9AM to be there soon as it's open and avoid every tour group. It's pretty nice to have shit to myself without changs flooding out of the buses. Head back to sleep at my place around 2-3PM for some snoozing till about 9-1PAM.

If I wanted I could just sleep at 5AM->noonish, then stay awake noon through work. Maybe snooze a bit here and there not an issue since I am project based. It's not hard to enjoy your time abroad unless you're only focused on cooming. Friday night I just have to take it a bit lighter on the alcohol deepening on what my schedule looks like but it's not a game ender.

Do anons really not know how to plan?

>>2885223
this is cucked. and you talk like an HR roastie instead of learning the local language
>>
>>2885224
Why would I care to learn more the local language than I need? You really don't need to know that much and can do shit at the gym with audio books and other BS or just practice basics in your airbnb/hotel during the night and see practical implementation after. Digital nomad'ing has some downsides, but overall is a net positive if you want to see the world.

Skill issue.

Not in Japan, but if you can't enjoy the country you are in with 8 hours of free time post or pre work, lol skill issue.

dunno why people find the timezone thing so hard
i'm from the uk, live in malaysia
i work around asia but a lot of my work is remote, on uk/euro times
on some projects there are times i need to be online at the same time as euro colleagues so i end up working into the night
i like it. i have an office, it's quiet, there's only me here. there's a 24 hour mini supermarket nearby and also 24 hour food delivery is a modern miracle

Anon you're working abroad so you're going to do it at some part of the day, in Europe I would do wake up 9AM->go out till 3-4PM, work till midnight and have the day to myself.

I might as well work in a country where I can enjoy the morning and afternoons or flip to sleeping in and enjoying the evenings out. I have weekends+company holidays and 3 weeks off if I need to do more.

Enjoy being stuck in an all or nothing attitude, lemme know how much travel you enjoy when you're retirement age.
