What happens when you book a one-way ticket to the sea and tell almost nobody? Cristina, a digital nomad from Bucharest, did exactly that four years ago, and it turned into a lifestyle spanning Spain, Morocco, and Portugal.
In this episode we talk about:
- Why she started traveling solo and what she learned about herself
- How to decide between booking three months upfront or just the first week or two
- The practical basics before a long stay: savings, health insurance, and the “ABC” safety rules that apply anywhere
- Why Marrakech became her second home, and how culture, directness, and hugs shape whether a place clicks with you
- Why traveling makes you appreciate home more, like a bow pulled back before it snaps forward
- Her new project: a pop-up co-living for nomads in the mountains near Brașov, Transylvania, planned for December
