Hi, I’m Claire Sturzaker, the woman behind Digital Nomad Cities.
I’ve spent the last ten years living, working and travelling around the world and I want to help you to plan your digital nomad life so you can do the same.
Whether you want to work remotely at your current job, take a short workation or pack it all up in a van, I’m here to help.
I left the UK after losing my job in 2012. I booked a one-way ticket to Barcelona and lived and worked there happily until I realised I wanted more for myself.
In 2015, I quit my job in Barcelona to go backpacking in South America, and knew I could never go back to an office job again. I had to find a way to support the travel lifestyle I wanted and began working online to fund my travels.
I made every mistake there is to make in blogging, but through hard work and a lot of trial and error, I grew my website Tales of a Backpacker into a leading solo female travel blog, designed to help travellers to plan their best budget travel adventure.
I spent several years travelling the world, then COVID changed everything. I was stuck in the UK, so decided to buy a campervan and try van life for a while. It’s another style of digital nomad lifestyle that I’ve loved doing for the past 3 years, and now I’m ready to hit the road again.
Since I’ve been living this work and travel lifestyle for ten years I want to share my tips and advice for living abroad and as travelling a digital nomad.
Digital Nomad Cities is designed for everyone who wants to become a digital nomad and enjoy a flexible lifestyle, wherever and however they want to do it.
Welcome!
Love Claire xx
