Why are digital nomads still losing hundreds of hours to planning, and how is Nomados trying to fix it?
Because long-term travel is still built on guesswork. Visas shift quietly. Wi-Fi speeds are a mystery. Every country has its own maze of rules. And most of the tools nomads rely on were never designed for people who live across borders instead of inside them.
On the My Latin Life podcast, Ryan Beachum breaks down why this friction exists and how Nomados is building a system that cuts through it instead of adding to the chaos.
What My Latin Life & Ryan Covered in their Conversation
Ryan focused on the core barriers that slow nomads down and the thinking behind Nomados. The discussion touched on planning, logistics, automation, and the future of global mobility. These themes match the questions real travelers ask every day.

The Problem: Nomads Lose Time to Friction
Ryan explained that most nomads do not struggle with inspiration. They struggle with logistics. Even experienced travelers lose hours each month searching for:
-
Current visa rules
-
Maximum stay durations
-
Reliable internet
-
Accurate location data
-
Local compliance changes
-
Health insurance requirements
-
Country-specific quirks that only show up on arrival
This fragmentation is the reason planning often feels like work instead of freedom.
The Nomados Approach
Ryan outlined how Nomados is designed to reduce the complexity of mobility rather than add another tool to the pile.
1. A Decision Engine for Where to Go Next
Nomados learns your preferences and uses real data to help you choose a destination. Travel stops being a guess and becomes a recommendation tailored to how you live and work.
2. A Launch Layer That Handles the Details
Once you choose a country, Nomados provides the essentials that matter most:
-
Entry rules
-
Required documents
-
Duration alerts
-
Overstay prevention
-
Internet and infrastructure data
-
Early signals for country changes
This helps travelers avoid the headache of cross-checking ten different sources.
3. A Marketplace Under One Roof
Instead of bouncing between apps and websites, Nomados brings core services into one place, including:
-
Health insurance
-
Connectivity
-
Local services
-
Travel essentials
-
Future third-party integrations
One platform. One workflow. Less friction.
Why This Matters for the Future of Mobility
The conversation highlighted a broader shift. Remote work, AI, and government policy are converging in ways that make global living more accessible. Ryan shared several trends shaping this future:
-
More countries are launching or revising remote work visas
-
Families and retirees are adopting nomadic lifestyles
-
AI is improving compliance, automation, and personalization
-
Young travelers are choosing flexible living over fixed routines
Nomads are no longer a fringe group. They are becoming a meaningful part of how people work and move.
