Remote and Roaming explores the practices, meanings, and politics of digital nomadism through extensive ethnographic fieldwork conducted across the globe. Digital nomads represent a growing class of highly mobile professionals whose work is location-independent and who combine continuous travel with remote work. Based on rich empirical material, the book examines digital nomads' accounts of their mobile lifestyles and addresses key questions, such as why do individuals choose this way of life? What does their everyday routine entail? And how do they navigate social relationships, family, and community life?

By situating digital nomadism within broader patterns of remote work, this volume highlights the societal and global transformations currently unfolding in relation to employment, mobility, and digitalisation-and their implications for both social and professional life. As an early manifestation of growing international remote work mobilities, digital nomadism reflects the evolving nature of work in late capitalist societies and the emergence of transnational lifestyle mobilities shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic.
