Description
Meet Danielle Lee, an ex-accountant for Xerox from the United Kingdom.
Back in 2019, Xerox gave her three weeks off for her to travel (and work a tiny bit) from Peru. She left the trip loving life, and asked if she could do this “digital nomad thing” more often, but they told her that it was only going to be a one-off type of allowance.
Bummer, but Danielle didn’t give up her dream.
She then doubled down and asked to go to Bali, to which they said “no, absolutely not.”
At that point, she had decided this lifestyle absolutely needed to be a full-time thing. She then gave the company an ultimatum and as a result they changed the policy, letting her work as a digital nomad.
She then joined Wifi Tribe because she was looking for community and flexibility WHILE traveling.
From there she went to Puerto Escondido (where she and Jeff met) to Florianopolis, Brazil. And she’s been traveling ever since.
She even took a full 180 degree shift from her life as an accountant to a personal coach and employee of Wifi Tribe!
Listen in to hear the rest of Danielle's inspirational journey to becoming a digital nomad.
