There are 35 million digital nomads worldwide, according to the Instant Offices study released last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>80% of digital nomads prefer to stay in one location for three to nine months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you didn&#8217;t already know, the lines separating work and travel for the digital nomad just don&#8217;t exist. They do both on the spin, visiting locations worldwide where they can work from beaches, coffee shops and coworking spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some digital nomads travel for a few months, while others do it for years. Research suggests that 80% of digital nomads prefer to stay in one location for three to nine months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Advances in technology, remote working and workplace culture mean that by 2035, a billion people could live and work as digital nomads. According to predictions, this global nomadic workforce, capable of plugging in anywhere in the world with a decent internet connection, will make up 1 in every three employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are already 35 million digital nomads worldwide, with the trend being driven by technology, growing demand for flexible workspace, and the increasing adoption of hybrid work.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ttrweekly.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-206378 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Spotlight on Asia<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unsurprisingly, over half the cities analysed in the top 60 digital nomad destinations are in Asia.
