Nomadic Matt’s Travel Tuesday

{NAME}, Greetings from Boston! I'm here to see my parents and give a talk on travel hacking. If you're around tonight, [come join me at The Revolution Hotel]( at 7pm for a talk and mixer! This is a big week for me. I have officially left Austin. I've sold all my stuff, put some stuff in storage to be shipped later, and have hit the road. Eventually, I'll move to NYC but I'm going nomading around Europe for a few weeks for our TNN group tours! Moving took way more time than I thought it would and I'm super far behind on writing so the story of why I'm moving will come next week! (The article is mostly done.) While I've outgrown Austin, I will miss all my friends. Over the years, I've built a really good friend group. I've talked a lot about before how important it is to surround yourself with like-minded people who motivate you. If you want to travel more, you need to find obsessive travelers rather than people who have no desire to leave their hometown. If you want to become healthier, you need friends who also care about that too. If you want to work online and live a location-independent lifestyle, you need to connect with other bloggers and creators. One way to do that? Camp Indie. Run by my friend Travis, Camp Indie brings together people who want to live an unconventional location-independent lifestyle. Each year, they host the [ultimate adult summer camp](=) for digital nomads, entrepreneurs, and adventure-seekers! At Camp Indie, you'll connect with a community of fellow adventurers and digital nomads, learn from successful entrepreneurs, and participate in workshops designed to take your freedom lifestyle to the next level. You can register for Camp Indie (June 16-19 in Kent, CT) and plan to make a bunch of connections, learn lots of new skills, and have a ton of fun! [Save $150](=) with the code NOMADIC.
