Vietnam - an update
My wife and I have been in Da Nang for a week now, and I just wanted to give some input on what we've experienced in Vietnam so far. First off, we booked a hotel from South Africa, b&b, and that worked out about $400 for 20 nights! Crazy cheap and.very, vety good. We were told to budget up to $100 a day for spends and tbh, you would struggle to spend that. Ok, if you go to the most expensive seafood restaurants and act like a crazy tourist you could spend way more, obviously. Taking it relatively sensibly, the cost of living is very affordable. The people are great and so refreshingly honest. To a certain extent, they don't even understand tipping, let alone ask for one! The weather has been exceptionally hot, so aircon is a must. If we were to live here, our cost of living.would be very affordable. Just throwing it in the mix for digital nomads, definitely worth a look 😀

I’ve visited Da Nang for a couple of weeks, enjoyed it for a holiday, was cheap and had great facilities in the hotel, was in the main drag by the ocean, so quite idyllic. Didn’t give it much thought as a permanent place to work, so would be keen on learning your perspective after you’ve e experienced more Les!

Hi all I’ve run a successful haulage business in the uk for 15 years. I have a CPC in road haulage. Looking to become a digital nomad anyone on here found any work remotely in the Haulage industry?

I think you might do well with a project management role in that particular industry? I’m no expert in either but believe they would fit well together? I think you could well set up a freelancing company where you solve logistic issues? Haulage is a global business, maybe you’re the next international freelancer that can work the globe??
Becoming a digital nomad
Hi guys I'm an italian guy of 23 years old. I dream of becoming a digital nomad. I'm creative (right part of the brain). What do you recommend me to do to get there as fast as possible and doing something I would enjoy? Thanks a lot.

Hey Manuel, there’s manny things you can turn your hand too along the path to discovering what you want to do! Ultimately your journey is yours, follow you passion but don’t let opportunities pass you by! If you’ve got a creative passion, then maybe designing something, from websites to print on demand? If you’re logical and pragmatic maybe something with databases or teaching? There’s plenty of opportunities out there, just get stuck into something!! Good luck!
help for a task? there's an ai for that
I use AI for my business and for my work, and I came across this particular AI website where you write what task you need help with and it will recommend different AI apps that can help you. There are so many AI apps out there, so I thought this was pretty cool and I thought I would share it with everyone here. The ai site is called what ai can do today https://whataicandotoday.com maybe we can make an ai site thread, where we post the ai sites/apps we use?

I use AI for my business, it’s very useful for the run of the mill administration task, grading homework and scheduling. I’ll check this one out, always helpful to have resources! Thanks for the link.
Who to teach online? The lowdown (if you're into teaching online!)
My diary is full, and I am now well on the way to being free, the shackles are off and collecting dust, yet I still have 3 months of contractual commitment at the University. Still I am able to fit all enquiries into my schedule, the wife says to rest, I say I will take as many as I can! We know some students will drop off as they achieve their goals (IELTS), and more will join. I have 11 paying students, 4 middle school, 1 business woman, and the rest are university students all wanting to apply for higher education in the west. From a financial point of view, IELT teaching and preparation, IELTS stands for international English language testing system, is where the good hourly rate is. My wife made a couple of calls to local training centres to compare prices, they charge anywhere from 350 RMB to 600 RMB, some charge 900 RMB for a crash course (300 rmb= £32=$41). When I started I was charging 150rmb per hour, offering discounts to get the students on board, now I charge 280RMB an hour, and they do not blink to pay that! The middle school kids are also a good earner if you group them in groups of 4 or 5, where I charge 125 per student per hour. I will give up the middle school and focus on IELTS, and either my hourly rate will go up, or my teaching hour is reduce to 45-50 minutes........ There is plenty of students needing IELTS.........

@Eva Budai hello Eva, there’s a Chinese APP called “ little red book” in English, it’s very popular in China for Chinese students looking for learning resources and teachers. I’m lucky that my wife’s niece is looking after it for me, there’s no in APP translation that I’ve found yet!! I’m just using this APP for now, a number of referrals coming though weekly!
