Digital Nomad Quotes

Live life with no excuses, travel with no regret.

Oscar Wilde
Nomads quotes / quotes for digital nomads 1

No matter how you travel, it’s still you going.

Jeff Goldblum

To awaken alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.

Freya Stark

It seemed an advantage to be traveling alone. Our responses to the world are crucially moulded by the company we keep, for we temper our curiosity to fit in with the expectations of others…Being closely observed by a companion can also inhibit our observation of others; then, too, we may become caught up in adjusting ourselves to the companion’s questions and remarks, or feel the need to make ourselves seem more normal than is good for our curiosity.

Alain de Botton

Some journeys in life can only be traveled alone.

Ken Poirot

Becoming free is learning about yourself; the scared and the insecure, the brilliant and the bold. Embrace both and the journey is yours and yours alone. No longer are you following another’s directions and your path and purpose will present themselves. Only then might you find another wandering soul doing the same thing, who can walk with you but on their own journey. All of a sudden you might find a shared passion and a wrinkled map on the trail that makes sense.

Riitta Klint

I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.

Oscar Wilde

If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears.

Cesare Pavese

The life you have led doesn’t need to be the only life you have.

Anna Quindlen

What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do — especially in other people’s minds. When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road.

William Least Heat Moon

Take only memories, leave only footprints.

Chief Seattle

Own only what you can always carry with you: known languages, known countries, known people. Let your memory be your travel bag.

Alexandr Solzhenitsyn

Conventional wisdom tells us… we take our baggage with us. I’m not so sure. Travel, at its best, transforms us in ways that aren’t always apparent until we’re back home. Sometimes we do leave our baggage behind, or, even better, it’s misrouted to Cleveland and is never heard from again.

Eric Weiner

Travel far enough, you meet yourself.

David Mitchell
Nomads quotes / quotes for digital nomads 2

Everything you do is based on the choices you make.

Wayne Dyer

At its best, travel should challenge our preconceptions and most cherished views, cause us to rethink our assumptions, shake us a bit, make us broader minded and more understanding.

Arthur Frommer

When you’re traveling with someone else, you share each discovery, but when you are alone, you have to carry each experience with you like a secret, something you have to write on your heart, because there’s no other way to preserve it.

Shauna Niequist

Traveling solo does not always mean you’re alone. Most often, you meet marvelous people along the way and make connections that last a lifetime.

Jacqueline Boone

I learned my strengths and my weaknesses. I experienced the exhileration of the ups and the despairs of the lows and most of the feelings in between… I learned courage and I learned it myself.

Ann Stirk

Nobody can discover the world for somebody else. Only when we discover it for ourselves does it become common ground and a common bond and we cease to be alone.

Wendell Berry

The question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me.

Ayn Rand

Don’t let anyone rob you of your imagination, your creativity, or your curiosity. It’s your place in the world; it’s your life. Go on and do all you can with it, and make it the life you want to live.

Mae C. Jemison

You are the one that possesses the keys to your being. You carry the passport to your own happiness.

Diane Von Furstenberg

Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold your life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time.

Hannah Arendt

I’m not afraid of storms, for I’m learning how to sail my ship.

Mary Louise Alcott

We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey.

John Hope Franklin

The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready.

Henry David Thoreau
Nomads quotes / quotes for digital nomads 3

Promise me you’ll always remember: you’re braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. A. A. Milne

Winnie the Pooh

We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey, or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way.

Gloria Gaither

When we get out of the glass bottle of our ego and when we escape like the squirrels in the cage of our personality and get into the forest again, we shall shiver with cold and fright. But things will happen to us so that we don’t know ourselves. Cool, unlying life will rush in.

D. H. Lawrence

All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveller is unaware.

Martin Buber

There are no foreign lands. It is the traveller only who is foreign.

Robert Louis Stevenson

People don’t take trips… trips take people.

John Steinbeck

It is not down in any map; true places never are.

Herman Melville

One doesn’t discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.

Ande Gide

Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comforts of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things. -air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky. -all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.

Cesare Pavese

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.

Helen Keller

Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.

Jack Kerouac

Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go.

Anthony Bourdain

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Mark Twain
Nomads quotes  quotes for digital nomads 4

Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white.

Mark Jenkins

A ship in a harbor is safe, but it not what ships are build for.

John A. Shedd

People do not decide to become extraordinary. They decide to accomplish extraordinary things.

Edmund Hillary

Do you really want to look back on your life and see how wonderful it could have been had you not been afraid to live in?

Caroline Myss

The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

Eleanor Roosevelt

It is confidence in our bodies, minds and spirits that allows us to keep looking for new adventures, new directions to grow in, and new lessons to learn – which is what life is all about.

Oprah Winfrey

Life shrinks or expands in proportion with one’s courage.

Anaïs Nin

I am willing to put myself through anything, temporary pain or discomfort means nothing to me as long as I can see that the experience will take me to a new level. I am interested in the unknown, and the only path to the unknown is through breaking barriers, an often painful process.

Diana Nyad

I’ve not ceased being fearful, I’ve gone ahead despite the pounding in my heart that says: turn back, turn back, you’ll die if you go too far.

Erica Jong

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.

Anthony Bourdain

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.

Hellen Keller

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Lao Tzu
Nomads quotes  quotes for digital nomads 5

Never did the world make a queen of a girl who hides in houses and dreams without traveling.

Roman Payne

A girl who travels has relationships that are based not on security, but on sincerity.

Lauren Klarfeld

Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.

Maya Angelou

Traveling is like flirting with life. It’s like saying, ‘I would stay and love you, but I have to go; this is my station’.

We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfilment.

Hilaire Belloc

Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.

Jennifer Lee

Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.

Suzanne Collin

Happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and celebrate it for everything that it is.

Mandy Hale

The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.

Albert Einstein

Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away.

Barbara De Angelis

Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere.

Mae West

I want to do is because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be but a challenge to others.

Amelia Earhart

Travel is never a matter of money but of courage.

Paolo Coelho
Nomads quotes  quotes for digital nomads 6

I can’t understand why men make all this fuss about Everest.

Junko Tabei

When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money.

Susan Heller

Without travel I would have wound up a little ignorant white Southern female, which was not my idea of a good life.

Lauren Hutton

You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place.

Miriam Adeney

I do not want to get to the end of my life and find that I just lived the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.

Diane Ackerman

A trip is what you take when you can’t take any more of what you’ve been taking.

Adeline Ainsworth

You must go on adventures to find out where you belong.

Sue Fitzmaurice

Adventure can be an end in itself. Self-discovery is the secret ingredient.

Grace Lichtenstein

Amy Dodson

Travel opens your mind as few other things do. It is its own form of hypnotism, and I am forever under its spell.

Libba Bray

To me, travel is more valuable than any stupid piece of bling money can buy.

Raquel Cepeda

One of the great things about travel is you find out how many good, kind people there are.

Edith Wharton

As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.

Virginia Woolf
Nomads quotes  quotes for digital nomads 7

My spirit gets nourished in faraway places. Sometimes I wonder if it’s a biological need, perhaps a biological flaw, that compels me to seek the excitement and challenge that comes of being in a place where nobody knows me. Other times I think that my compulsion to settle into communities that are different from the ones I know is related to my passion for experiential learning. I learn best and most happily by doing, touching, sharing, tasting. When I’m somewhere I’ve never been before, learning goes on all day, every day.

Rita Golden Gelman

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.

Saint Augustine

Wandering re-establishes the original harmony which once existed between man and the universe.

Nysssa P. Chopra

I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I’m going is what inspires me to travel it.

Rosalia De Castro

How do the geese know when to fly to the sun? Who tells them the seasons? How do we, humans, know when it is time to move on? As with the migrant birds, so surely with us, there is a voice within, if only we would listen to it, that tells us so certainly when to go forth into the unknown.
