2BeNomadic — New Stuff Showcase

Our stories as nomads are unique and often complex. Some of us are explorers, others are trying to survive. The forces behind our travel and mobile mindsets are as varied as hues in a Crayola box. Travelers by choice or nomads by necessity, our joys are personal and yet shared, as are also our struggles.

“2Be Nomadic,” designed to be interactive, informational, and often submerged in stories, enhance journeys. Our life styles are stoically individual, yet enriched by community.

“Overcoming” is the theme of our December edition of 2Be Nomadic in our multiple media formats. Overcoming cold, overcoming repercussions of the cold hearted, overcoming the challenges of mobile. Overcoming and controlling the things we can, “Live long and prosper,” is more than a Vulcan platitude. We can prosper through the freedom to expand, explore, create and wallow in the warmth of humor, accomplishment, and challenges to the constraints of who we are.

We are enriched by empathy. Share in one another’s stories. While 2Be Nomadic lights paths around murky puddles and sucking quicksand, we inspire to provide wings and warm currents for flight. Our goal is for each to lift others. Welcome.

2Be Nomadic

The stories of nomads are unique and often complex. Some of us are explorers, others are trying to survive. The forces that make us travel or be transitory are as varied as the colors in a crayon box. Nomads by choice or by necessity, our journeys range from big life shifts to daily shuffles of place.

2BeNomadic, “2B Nomadic” brings tools that nurture healthy experiences and trampoline-bounce over toxic experiences. These digital publications explore life on the road, life in transition, and mobile living. “2Be Nomadic” has new content most days, on one platform or another. Subscribe to our shorts which preview the week.

We stimulate conversations about how not to getting stuck, literally or figuratively, and how to thrive while mobile and to take on new skillsets. Goals are to inspire and to problem solve. Be immersed in story.

Swing from threads. Strengthen the narrative. Understand your own journey. These productions extend beyond static prose. Share, reflect, interact. This is a living space of travelers of not just road miles, but mental exits, spiritual entrances, and creative solutions. Relatable ephinaies and perspectives never considered, share in 2Be Nomadic.
