Welcome to Episode 165, where I co-host this special episode with Ebonie Finley.


Are you dreaming of trading your office cubicle for a beachside hammock? Welcome to another exciting episode of the Winging It Travel Podcast, where we take you on a journey through the vibrant world of digital nomadism! Join host James Hammond and co-host Ebony Finlay as they explore the ins and outs of remote work while travelling, sharing their personal travel stories and experiences from some of the most captivating destinations around the globe.

In this episode, Ebonie, a seasoned traveller and digital nomad, takes us to the lush landscapes of Costa Rica. She paints a vivid picture of the laid-back lifestyle and her challenges in making lasting connections in this paradise. Ebony, who has been living the digital nomad life since 2017 and is the founder of Nomad Generation, shares her adventures in Colombia and Guatemala too. She provides invaluable insights into the lifestyle, cost of living, safety, and community in each location, making this episode a treasure trove of travel tips for aspiring digital nomads.


James brings a different perspective as he names Thailand, Vietnam, and Bolivia as potential places to be a digital nomad based on his travels. Even though he has not lived this lifestyle to date, he brings a wealth of experience travelling in these countries, which helps the conversation about whether we should consider these as digital nomads.

As they dive deeper into their travel experiences, James and Ebony emphasize the importance of community among digital nomads. They discuss how building connections can enhance your travel journey and provide a support system while you're on the road. With practical advice and personal anecdotes, this episode is packed with travel inspiration for anyone looking to embark on their backpacking adventures or explore the world while working remotely.

So grab your headphones, settle in, and prepare for a delightful discussion that ignites your passion for travel. Whether you're contemplating a move to a new country or just looking for your next travel recommendations, this episode is a must-listen for anyone eager to experience the freedom of digital nomadism.

Smart Travel Podcast


Every Monday, James Hammond sets off with a microphone, and the resulting audio feels less like a planned production and more like you’ve been handed a pair of headphones in the middle of an adventure. Winging It Travel Podcast, from Voyascape Media, is built on the idea that the most compelling stories aren't found in guidebooks but in the unplanned moments and raw reactions that happen along the way. You’ll hear the crunch of gravel underfoot on a remote trail, the bustling chaos of a foreign market, and the genuine conversations that unfold when plans fall apart. This approach transforms each episode into a deeply personal journal entry, documenting not just places, but the cultural and human textures that define them. It’s a documentary of feeling as much as fact. While the soundscapes are cinematic, the heart of the podcast lies in its authenticity-the slight breathlessness from hiking up a volcano, the surprise at a strange local delicacy, the quiet reflection after a long day navigating unfamiliar streets. The journey covers the societal layers and personal transformations that travel sparks, making it about more than destinations. Tune in weekly to find yourself completely immersed, feeling as if you’re right there beside James, figuring it all out as you go.
