EP_63; Work Anywhere Thailand

Gail Carriger and Piper J. Drake chose chaos a couple of months ago, going off script with no structure to discuss trip planning for Thailand! Note: at the time this episodes airs, Gail and Piper will already be in Thailand, so check their social media for live updates of their trip or stand by for future episodes recorded in Thailand! It's happening, dear listeners. Brace yourselves. The approach: have a home base in Bangkok, working and writing during the week and taking day trips or venturing beyond Bangkok for weekend jaunts. The objective: work anywhere. Piper will also be working day job! On US time! Thus practicing a biphasic sleep schedule. The philosophy: we're enjoying the lifestyle, the digital nomad experience, and we're very likely to be back. Coordination and Planning shared Google doc for asynchronous notes on our travel destination and questions Travel Buddies - it's a trio of friends with a combination of shared interests and contrasts packing prep Researching desired foods to seek out and try, making lists! Key Questions We Asked Each Other what kinds of things do you want to do? what kinds of sight seeing do you enjoy? what travel vaccines do we need? – – – Special thanks to Kelly for editing this episode!
