Belgium, Bosnia and Bicycles with Digital Nomad - Maryann

In this episode, we meet with Maryann Walters who navigates life as a true digital nomad, exploring Europe with her husband, their dog, and their bicycles.
Maryann's journey began with determination in 2020, when she specifically sought out remote work that would accommodate a travel lifestyle. After securing a remote position and spending three years renovating their Reno home to make it rental-ready, she and her husband embarked on their European adventure, starting in Belgium.
Their time in Belgium revealed a cycling paradise where the sport is revered like football in America. But their journey was shaped by visa constraints – as Americans, they could only stay in the European Union for three months without special documentation.
This limitation led them to creative solutions, including stays in non-EU countries like Andorra (a tiny nation between France and Spain) and Bosnia to "reset" their visa clock. Each location brought unique challenges and rewards and stark differences in infrastructure and environment across countries.
Through it all, Maryann has maintained her professional commitments while forming deep connections to places they lived for months at a time – a depth of experience inaccessible to typical tourists. Her story reveals both the extraordinary freedom of the digital nomad lifestyle and its very real challenges, offering valuable insights for anyone dreaming of breaking free from geographical constraints.
