Sondre Rasch is a co-founder and CEO of SafetyWing - building a global social safety net. SafetyWing’s mission is to remove the role of geographical borders as a barrier to equal opportunities and freedom for everyone with a global home country on the internet. 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. He encouraged colleagues to take up the torch and address the deficiency but when nobody did, he took it on himself and started SafetyWing.

In this conversation, Sondre shares his story on how the moment he fell in love with the magic of Tuscany inspired him to explore digital nomadism. Sondre explains how SafetyWing deals with one of the biggest hurdles which is finding THE place to go. In case of emergency, you cannot really think stuff through and do research, communicate with medical staff in a foreign language, and be aware of the medical bill.
