Looking back at the year 2021, my first year working remotely as an Online Marketing & PR Strategist for ClickDo Ltd. and SeekaHost Ltd. full-time, I had some wonderful moments, enjoying freedom and the digital nomad lifestyle despite restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Here are some impressions of my 2021 as a digital nomad & my takeaways:
How it all started:
My daily life now:
working, learning and exercising from home:
I recognise the importance of eLearning and remote learning and cover such topics regularly:

I also exercise daily while I work in London or UK hotels:
But I do treat myself while blogging and writing:
And it is rewarding and motivating when the work you do receives recognition:
ClickDo wins SME News London Award 2021 for Most Innovative SEO Consultancy 2021
I have been more invested in offering UK Businesses guest posting opportunities on the Blogs I write for:
Top 10 Blogs UK Businesses should be featured for PR & Marketing
And attend more business events like the Business Show 2021 at London ExCel where I spotted interesting home office options:
I also attended the UK Black Business Week in London to cover very interesting insights into business financing:

As a digital nomad I visit and write about Co-Living Spaces:
How Sustainable Living and Co-Living come together in perfect Harmony at Domi Co-Living London?
Wherever I work from I look for opportunities to swim, exercise and use a sauna and steam room:
Summer is my favourite time of year:
whenever I get a break from the laptop, I enjoy the sun, sea and the best beaches in the UK:
Working on a computer all day long:
I realised how important movement breaks are at the home office and have added a standing desk, an exercise bike and yoga equipment to my home office:
Especially during the lockdowns I understood the impact of being restricted with moving freely and this is reflected in this short video by photographer and videographer Petra Eujane:
Final verdict of 2021:
It’s been a year full of flexible yet hard work that challenges but equally fulfils me and I look forward to more remote working perhaps outside the UK in 2022 as a digital nomad.
