Hanoi 🇻🇳

Hanoi is a lovely bustling city. Trang is highly professional, quick to respond and incredible efficient in all of her efforts; She alone is the reason I am not giving this month a one star. Unfortunately, The co-working space did not lend itself to a positive or productive working environment. This space was used for social events and blurred the boundaries for those who needed a quiet and focused workspace. This space was also poorly maintained and serviced resulting in overflowing trash and molded dishes on several occasions.

I would not recommend this place as a productive or enjoyable month as I was stuck in my room a lot due to lack of quiet or clean working space.

Chiang Mai 🇹🇭 Hanoi 🇻🇳

I knew someone who did the 12-month RY program, and it inspired me to join the 4-month journey. I chose to do Asia, and it was my first time traveling this long as a digital nomad.

This is one of the best decisions I've made, and I've made a lifetime of memories. I felt set up for success for the journey with RY providing plenty of onboarding materials and webinars, and my city leader (Sharon) setting up a 1-1 call to answer any questions I had.

The city leaders in Hanoi (Trang and Chau), Chiang Mai (Miao), and Goa (Chantal) were amazing and were really thoughtful about how they established the city and experience. The city teams did a great job giving recommendations and tips, answering our many questions, and really helping us immerse in the culture. Our community leader, Sharon, was also fantastic and had a great personality to lead our crew. She made our community very strong by setting up fun unofficials or organizing a casual dinner.

Some of the group also decided to do our own transition trips in between (outside of RY), which was great to squeeze in some other countries on the way. I also had some friends visit along the way that was able to meet the group which was fun.

I would also say that part of this experience you will need an open mind. Traveling does not always go smoothly and hiccups will happen, but it's all part of the experience.

I'd also recommend to pack as light as possible. However, you can always ship stuff back as many in my group did.

Overall, take the leap!

Osaka 🇯🇵 Chiang Mai 🇹🇭 Hanoi 🇻🇳

I went on the Asia 4 Month journey to Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, and India.

This was my first digital nomad experience, I took the leap and loved it. Now I'm hooked and plan on doing more programs.

Accommodations always felt safe, I can't guarantee your experience but I always had my own shower/bathroom which was great.

The city teams especially Miao in Thailand, Trang and Chau in Vietnam, and Chatal in India made the experience practically seamless. They were beyond helpful and often went the extra mile to not only answer questions or offer options but help set them up.

My Community Leader, Sharon, is a seasoned expert. She made sure we had a good community with lots of unofficial events and also embodied a practice of work life balance.

For some context on expectations I budgeted ~$1,500 usd after the monthly cost for each country including experiences and souvenirs. Your own travel style will impact what you spend but this budget worked very well for me, I never missed an event for budget issues and always came in very close to budget.
