**Description:**This week on the podcast we are joined by Sondre Rasch. Sondre is a co-founder and CEO of SafetyWing. Born in Bergen, Norway, he studied economics and computer science, before starting work as a policy advisor for the government of Norway advising on social policies. After getting frustrated with the slow pace of government change, Sondre first founded SuperSide (YC W16), a platform for freelance designers. It was here he discovered the lack of a safety net for online remote workers. SafetyWing was born in 2018 (YC W18), has raised $35M investments, and has grown its community of 100k+ customers (we're two of those customers!). In this week's episode, Sondre shares his travel story and how he came to create not one but two startups, what it was like starting an insurance company, what travelers should consider when it comes to travel insurance, and shifts that Sondre has seen in the digital nomad space over the last couple of years.
