Live The Life Of Your Dreams By Working Remotely 💭

Cities can be stressful and lonely places. With their towering buildings and the fact that no one is ever really looking at you, they can feel like cold and unforgiving places. You can feel alone even in the middle of a crowd because everyone else around you is busy going about their own lives.

People live in their own bubble — sometimes literally, with headphones on or earbuds jammed into their ears — and it's easy for us to forget that there are other people around us who are struggling just as hard as we are. 

It’s not just the emotional impact, living in the city is tough financially. It’s not just the cost of rent, but you pay twice as much to get to the office as you would if you were working remotely, according to a new survey from Owl Labs. With rising costs of living, fuel, parking, public transport and even the cost of getting dressed up (and out of bed at an ungodly hour in order to get there on time…)

When I was working in London, I was feeling frustrated with this sort of life. I was tired of the hustle and bustle and and ‘busy conveyor belt’ and I knew I wanted something different.

I thought about the times I was happiest and there were two commonalities:

1- Being by the sea (usually surfing or diving)

2- Being part of a real community

My friend told me how happy he was in Bali. It was his ‘happy place’. So I asked the company I worked for if I could work from Bal. They accepted the request, but just for 2 months. 

Not only did I fall in love with Bali, but I had a completely new lifestyle and was way healthier and happier. 

I surfed before work, and instead of waking up early to catch the tube, I had lunch with friends, instead of a sandwich alone at my desk and I walked on the beach after work to catch sunsets, instead of drinking too much at the pub after work.

So I quit my job and stayed here in Bali and now I help others to find a fully remote job so they can live a happier life!

A remote job gives you the opportunity to interact with people from all over the world who are passionate about what they do. It also allows you to keep in touch with friends and family without having to spend time getting ready for work or commuting to an office every day. You can live wherever you want without worrying about rent or location restrictions at an office building. You have complete control over your own schedule, which means you never have to feel rushed or stressed out about missing deadlines because of traffic or other commitments outside work hours.
