Those into this idea should read this great (encouraging) article:

http://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/2008/05/laid-off-one-t...

It inspired the hell out of me.

It's more about NOT coding, and taking time to see the world cheaply, but looks like the author (Jason Kester) was so font of living this way that he started a company called Expat Software to code full-time from cheap exotic places.

Expat Software's site says, "Where exactly are we located? That is difficult to answer, as it changes on a regular basis. A good place to look would be a nice beach with cheap bungalows to rent and a fast internet connection."

:-)



Great article. Read it some time ago too and decided to do just that - so right now I'm at Bangkok :). Thanks for reminding me on that link.
