Not long ago, I used to have a corporate job with timings, commute and a seat in a office. It was fun and exciting. It was everything one could ask for. There was money, there was good work, good and smart colleagues and yes there was fun. I was so attached to it. It was all in my comfort zone and I was getting comfortable. I had a good manager to work with and a overall good environment to work in. But that was not enough, I wanted more. I wanted a lot of discomfort, getting into something I have never delved in before, getting stuck and to find the way out on my own. The startup eco-system had been in my radar for long. I loved following it and kept track of each and everything happening out there. This is when I had the opportunity to get in touch with an old friend from college and things changed. This was the end of comfort and beginning of a new interesting journey. I had transitioned from EDA to CPU to GPU and I loved all of it. But this I love more, I can build and see an end product which a customer uses. I get in touch with people's lives and love every part of it. This marked the beginning of my transformation into a digital nomad. I call myself a digital nomad because what I need to survive is Roti, Kapda, Makan and a working WiFi. That's it. Of course, I love my Mac. And these are the bare essentials I live on. Rest all happens!! It is the rise and rise of the age of the digital nomads and I am very happy to be a part of it. More on this later.
