Ep 277 - Digtal Nomad Summit

Author: Johnny FD January 22, 2024 Duration: 48:26

In this episode I'll go through the history and future of the Nomad Summit and how it's affected the lives of many people who attended.


"Hey There Johnny,

Alex was here visiting me recently in Panama. At one point we were reminiscing about living in Playa, what's transpired since then and how we met at the Digital Nomad Summit. We began talking about how many people we met from that event and still keep in contact with, how it was an impactful series of events, the friendships and connections that were made, how grateful we are for your creation and making it happen . . . also how much time, work, resources and, most of all, heart it took to pull it off.

Alex and I wanted to thank you . . . So, I thought of all the other connections and friends of people I met there and put them in here. Sooooo, thank you for everything you did! The impacts of your effort are sill rippling out into the lives that you touched by pursuing your inspiration. Thank you for collecting and attracting amazing people who I value the friendships of. Sending you lots of love, wherever you may be in the world!

Thank You Johnny!!!! ✨🩵✨" - Jaclyn Lanning


"Thank you Johnny!


I’ll never forget how amazing my Nomad Summit experience was in Cancun and how you chipped in after all my gear & passport was stolen. You’re an incredible human with a kind soul. Keep up the amazing work you do to continue to inspire others 🙏🏽" -Vishal


"@⁨Johnny⁩ super grateful for all the time and effort you put into organizing and bringing people together. I still cherish the connections I made in Cancun and it wouldn’t have been possible without you! 💜" - Pino


"If you hear of new cool spots would love to hear or see a post in Nomad Summit - SO EXCITED to be back traveling there soon. Would love to meet up with peeps from the old gang or new travelers too. Enjoy! 😁
