单集简介 ...

Some call themselves digital nomads, others joke that they're digital refugees instead—it all depends on the thickness of your wallet! But hey, if we’re all just glued to our screens working like cyber laborers, why not do it where the living costs are much friendlier? A new wave of remote workers is turning the trend around—heading back to their hometowns. It's cheaper, familiar, and of course, comes with its own set of challenges. What is it like being a reverse nomad in your home sweet home? On the show: Heyang, Yunqi & Fei Fei
