In Digital Nomads, Rachael Woldoff and Robert Litchfield take readers into an expatriate digital nomad community in Bali, Indonesia to better understand this growing demographic of younger workers. From dozens of interviews and several stints living in a digital nomad hub, Woldoff and Litchfield detail the factors that drove this set of workers to flee their conventional lives in search of meaningful work, community, and opportunities for personal development on their own terms.
