Home Base

In the context of digital nomads, a home base generally refers to a physical location a digital nomad can return to for rest and relaxation in between their travels. This home base could be their permanent residence or a temporary base where they have a stable environment to work from. It's a place where they can store their belongings, take a break from traveling, and recharge before heading out again.

Some digital nomads choose to have a home base that is close to family and friends, while others prefer a location that is more affordable, has a lower cost of living, or is in a convenient location for their work or travel needs.

Having a home base can provide digital nomads with a sense of stability and routine, which can be important when traveling frequently or working remotely. It also allows them to have a place to call home while still enjoying the freedom and flexibility that comes with being a digital nomad.

For a digital nomad to establish a home base outside of their country of origin, suitable visa options for long stays are an important consideration.
