Lifestyle Design: How to Create the Life You Want
Lifestyle design is a catch-all buzzword that was made famous by Tim Ferriss around 2007.
The concepts of outsourcing your life, working for yourself, and creating a "4 hour work week" might be a little cliche these days, but the reality is that fundamentally they're all things we should be thinking about.
So many of us are in jobs we hate, routines that are dis-enchanting and we're not able to do the things we like to do on a regular basis.
So "designing our lives" to figure out how to integrate more of those things is a really valuable proposition and something we should do more of.
At Location Rebel our lifestyle design posts cover a broad range of topics like travel, blogging, productivity, and bucket lists.

Becoming a Digital Nomad: Why You SHOULDN’T Do It
Becoming a digital nomad and working for yourself always like a combination of unicorns, glitter, and mint chocolate chip ice cream – don’t believe anyone that tells you otherwise. Ok. That’s a lie. I’ll be totally honest, sometimes being a digital nomad and solopreneur totally sucks. I mean, usually it doesn’t, but nothing is ever all glitter and […]

Why A “Bridge Business” Has Been the Missing Piece in Your Life
