Nora Dunn sold everything she owned (including a busy financial planning practice) to travel the world in 2006. She has been a career traveler ever since, and is considered one of the OG digital nomads and travel bloggers.
On her website, The Professional Hobo she not only shares her adventures and misadventures alike (which range from sublime to comical to mystical to terrifying) but she is radically honest about the full-time/long-term travel lifestyle and the realities of working remotely while traveling.
As a former Certified Financial Planner, she demonstrates that full-time travel can be financially sustainable and helps people design their ideal travel/work lifestyles. With a knack for details, she loves helping people with all the lifestyle logistics and ensuring they have all the information they need to be successful.
Nora has been featured in print, on television, radio, podcasts, and online on outlets like Forbes, Condé Nast Traveler, Business Insider, Lonely Planet, and Oprah. She is also a writer and personal finance spokesperson for the top personal finance site, NerdWallet.
In this edition of the Insiders Speaker Series, Financial Planner-turned-Digital Nomad, Nora Dunn delivers straight talk about the realities of working remotely while traveling & how to do so successfully and sustainably. If that sounds dry, do not fear: Nora is an engaging presenter who will have you laughing while you're scrambling to take note of all the helpful information she shares!
