Hey guys it is day four of my 90 day in a row livestreams coffee with Kristin. Oh
and today I
have coffee
Let's let's back around so I'm actually working in
Amsterdam today at a wework
I have done a video about co-working in Amsterdam
Which I will post in the in the description below because Amsterdam is a really special place
That just has like 60 or 80 different co-working spaces
But today is my last day here. So I'm really really
devastated but
All good things must come to an end. But before I left I wanted to show you guys where I was working because
It's 2019 that you can pretty much do your job from almost anywhere so why?
Do you have to do it from the same office for years and years and years?
So I wanted to show you that there's different options. Hey, how's it going free?
You don't have to just yeah work in one place. And that's the beauty of being a digital nomad
So I wanted to challenge you this year to consider if your job could be done from somewhere else
Now not your traditional place of work or your traditional office
Then could you maybe approach your boss or your superiors or somebody and ask if you could work remotely?
You don't might not be able to
travel to Amsterdam
but maybe you can start working from home one day a week or something like that and
You never know where that will lead you everything starts with the first step. Hey pre I'm well, thank you
Just having a coffee break here checking out the view
So I'll show you my co-working space just you can get an idea
Like I have a coworking membership in Buenos Aires where I signed up
We work and I get credits so I can use different credits and different locations all around the world
But you don't have to go to we work you can go to co-working spaces anywhere
So if you have a job that can be done online
Sometimes I work at a museum
Sometimes I work at a coffee shop or cafe or now. There's co-working spaces popping up at hotels
At restaurants at bars during the day that are closed. They're turning them into co-working spaces
So really the world is your oyster and this is the place I'm working today. So
there's the kitchen we got this cool bar over there we've got
Foosball, but it's just a nice open space with lots of Windows
Coffee on top, it's like a panoramic view up here
When you guys think would you work here free, yes, you can ask me a question
so this is the
There's like unlimited coffee and water and beer actually
So
This is the beer station. Do you guys have beer at your office's fruit water?
And
You've can like cook and make stuff here. So
I'll go that was very close. Sorry about that
They're doing a tour
Here is another area
Just kind of like chill
So there's lots of little nooks and crannies to work in and
Yeah, it's very comfortable so yeah what's going on somebody had a question
Anyone know questions so, you know people have questions I
Need to find a place. This is quite a comfortable couch actually. Oh
It's Palle The Radio Vagabond. Yes. I am back on coffee now. Thank God
My jet lag was on another level guys. It was um, I
Was on so many flights in so many days including multiple red-eye flights and
So I really didn't sleep really. Okay, I think all right did but at really weird times
So I landed in Amsterdam at 8:30 a.m
With just six hours ahead of East Coast time and so I didn't go to sleep until I got home
Here which was like 12 p.m
And the first day I slept really long during the day and then I've been awake every single night since I got here
And I've only been sleeping like two or three hours in the morning
Getting up going to work
But you know
it could be worse at least I can hang out here and
I can work until however late. I want last night. I was here until I think around
10:00 or 11:00 p.m
Yeah, I actually like to work in the afternoons. I
Like to work in the morning, like writing or something like that and then take a break have breakfast go to the gym
Which is what I did stay and then in the afternoons
Do like phone calls emails? You'll actually think I have phone calls soon
stuff like that, so
And then everybody leaves the office, even though they're remote workers or freelancers or digital nomads. They all leave the office at five o'clock
So I basically get the whole entire building to myself
Maybe there's like one or two people, but I can work here until midnight or whenever and there's no one here
So it's really chill and that's the other thing that's good about being a digital nomad
You don't have to work 8 to 5 or 9 to 5. You can start working at one o'clock. Some people just work at night
You could just work in the mornings like you can split up your hours. However you want so just wanted to show you guys like
One of the one of the alternatives and you could just kick that kick back relax take a break
What are you guys doing today?
So yeah, I'm back on coffee now that I am well, I woke up at like 8 o'clock, which is a reasonable time
So I felt like I could have coffee without staying up all night again, but uhm. Yeah
well, I'm gonna get back to
my phone calls and other work, but I hope that
You guys are having a great day
Oh, I can't talk about Portugal right now cuz I just remembered I have a phone call in a minute
but
we'll do a
Separate livestream all about Portugal if you want and if you want to see more about Amsterdam and co-working spaces here
Including one next door called Zoku
Which is a co living in co-working space check out my co-working amsterdam video on youtube and I will link to it below
So ask yourself this question
Do you want to work remotely? If so what needs to happen so that you can do it?
Even if it's just one day a week or one day a month, whatever it is. Ask your boss make it happen
Let me know bye guys
