Nomadic Matt’s Travel Tuesday

{NAME}, Greetings from NYC! Last week, I got back from Vermont and am now finally in the city for an extended period of time. No traveling for a bit. There's a lot I want to do and focus on over the next few months before I hit the road again. I have so many things I want to write about so I am super excited to finally sit down and write. It's been months since I've been creative and there's a lot that's ready to pour out. One of the downsides of working and traveling is that it's easy to get burnt out and behind. Between traveling, meetings, running social media, and managing a team, I hardly ever have time to just write. I know getting to travel for a living is the dream for many. But it's not just sitting by the pool all day. (I wish!) And, as with any job, it's easy to get burnt out if you aren't careful. Since I know many of you might be fellow creators, I want to mention this talk I am giving in two weeks on this very subject. On July 27th, [I'm giving a big virtual talk on the realities of blogging](=). It's a free online event about blogging burnout, the highs & lows of running a business, and making money from your laptop. I'm speaking at it with a few of my friends — and [it's completely free to attend](=)! Burnout is always just around the corner when you work online. [Find out how to avoid it at this free event](=). ​ LATEST COMMUNITY UPDATES​​​ ​1. WANT TO MASTER POINTS & MILES?
