We don't have all the answers, but we'll help you find them

Of course! However you define yourself and your lifestyle, if you’re location independent (not tied to a specific location to support yourself financially), interested in making travel or living abroad a bigger part of your life, and wanting to connect with others doing similar things, you’ll likely find plenty of kindred spirits in the Collective.

Yes! Many members have been at this for a while, from a few years up through 10–15 years or more. As a seasoned nomad, you know there are still challenges; they’re just different than they were at the beginning. You also know that as your life and priorities change over time, new questions can arise and you may feel like a newbie all over again as you figure out what’s next. You’ve probably also experienced challenges making real connections with like-minded people, even if you’ve met plenty of nomads on your journey. No matter how much experience you have, the Collective is for you.

Absolutely! In the Collective you’ll find lots of getting-started resources, conversations relevant to people at all stages, and other newbies and experienced nomads alike to help you along the way. We don’t specifically focus on how to become location-independent or start a business, but plenty of us are business owners, freelancers, or remote workers and we often discuss the ins and outs of making it work. But work isn’t everything, and there are retired folks here too, so we talk about the rest of life as well!

People of all genders (primarily women), aged 30–70 (40s and 50s especially), some parents, some who are (early) retirees or on sabbatical as well as many self-employed and some remote workers, some traveling/living abroad and some domestic, predominantly Americans but also a handful of people from other countries or with citizenship/residency in multiple countries.

This is not another Facebook group! The Collective is a private community hosted on the Mighty Networks platform, which you can access via the web or their app for iOS and Android. The beauty of having our own space is that you can stay active in the community even if you want to avoid Facebook! Keeping the content focused on one topic leads to deeper and richer discussions and connections, and our frequent live events offer opportunities to really get to know and support each other.

Yes, if you sign up for the Monthly membership plan. The Lifetime and Lifetime Plus memberships don't include a free trial, so they're a better fit for people who are already sure they want to be part of the Collective and have ongoing access to the resources and community.

Yes! However, there are no refunds offered on membership fees already paid. The Collective is meant to grow with and support you throughout your Nomadtopia and we hope you’ll stick around, but there’s no long-term commitment. We’re here as long as you need us.

No, but when you join on the Monthly membership plan you’ll get 14 days to try it out for free. If you decide it’s not a good fit, cancel any time during your free trial and you won’t pay a dime. No refunds are offered on the Lifetime and Lifetime Plus memberships, so they're a better fit for people who are already sure they want to be part of the Collective and have ongoing access to the resources and community. You can review the full Terms and Conditions here.

Amy, the founder of Nomadtopia, is American, and many of our members are from the United States, but there are people in the Collective from a variety of countries and some with multiple citizenships/residencies. Some of the specific resources and information shared may be more helpful to Americans, but we are always eager to help and will point you in the right direction for your particular situation if we can. And of course many of the challenges nomads face, like maintaining relationships and caring for aging parents, are universal. We’re all in this together!

All of the official member events are virtual and can be attended from anywhere. Call times vary to be accessible to the greatest number of people, taking into account active members’ current locations and availability as much as possible.

Members often meet up in person when their paths cross, which has happened in a variety of locations around the world including Texas (USA), several cities in Mexico, and Lisbon (Portugal).

Of course! Contact us and we’ll get back to you ASAP.

Just click here! You’ll be taken to another page to enter your payment details (but won’t be charged for 14 days), and then you’ll receive instructions on how to create an account and access the community.
