How to Work Remotely While Living the Vanlife
Living in a van and working remotely? It’s the dream combo of freedom and flexibility—but it takes planning to make it work. If you’re trying to blend work and travel, here’s how to master remote work vanlife style.
1. Reliable Internet is Non-Negotiable
A mobile hotspot and a good data plan are musts. A signal booster can also help in low-signal areas.
2. Create a Mobile Office
Use a foldable desk, lap table, or even your bed to create a designated workspace. Comfort matters!
3. Stick to a Loose Schedule
Work with your energy levels. Early riser? Start at dawn and adventure in the afternoon. Just make it consistent.
4. Use Offline Tools
Download important documents ahead of time and use apps like Notion or Evernote offline.
5. Communicate With Clients or Employers
Keep them in the loop if you’ll be off-grid. Most people are understanding if you’re upfront.
6. Take Advantage of Coworking Days
Every now and then, stop by a café or coworking space. It’s a great change of pace.
