I did the digital nomad thing for about a year back in 2016 before settling down in Taiwan (2017 - present) with my now-wife.

If you have any desire to travel the world (post-pandemic), I'd strongly suggest that you take the plunge and do it. It's eye-opening and totally changed the direction of my life -- as someone else mentioned there are long-held beliefs and values that you start to question after you see people living life differently.

The main thing that I was surprised about is that travel is _exhausting_, and this is doubly so if you are also tied to regular employment with semi-fixed hours. Finding decent accommodations, reliable internet, food, and a data plan with google translate starts to wear on you after awhile. I'd personally suggest doing the slower travel route of 3 - 6 months in a place and really getting to know an area.
