After all, in fact, this is no big deal if your field of activity allows to perform their duties without being tied to the workplace. It is only necessary to decide the country and prepare well.
Alexander Isachenko, project founder Trip & Work, Produced 7 simple steps for those who long dreamed to change their style of work, or just thinking about the possibility of combining the familiar process of making money with travel. After all, this winter he spent in Bali.
Determine the goals
In order to make your trip was as useful and effective, you should decide what you want to go for a long period in another country. We brought out for themselves the following objectives for the move:
- relax and reboot;
- Change city bustle to the heavenly jungle, rice fields, the ocean;
- to focus on a specific project;
- to optimize the costs of the launch and development of the project.
After setting goals, you will be able to prioritize themselves in the coming journey, and to understand that it is important for you, and that you can close your eyes.
Prepare the employer / client to the online work
This is important, because it affects your mood before the trip, and on the relationship with the employer or clients. For employees the task of motivating the authorities "let you sail." Assure them that by moving to another country just increase your productivity, and you will be able to do their job even better due to the atmosphere that reigns around.
If we trust to your employer you have a little or you decide to stay in another country for longer, you should pay attention to the freelance market. ABOUT the benefits of this type of work you can tell yourself "free mercenaries", and a new way of life, may be persuaded to join in and have one of them.
As for customers, there will be an argument examples of well-known companies in this format. Need to meet, to show that the quality of work will not fall if you will communicate via Skype and negotiate projects on e-mail. It is standard practice for many western companies, so there are difficulties should arise.
Technical training
In order to go to Bali for a long time, it is necessary to responsibly prepare. The most important thing - it is to set a date of your trip. The best option - a period of 2 to 5 months. In this case, the training costs and the logistics can be allocated for the whole period, thus reducing the average monthly budget.
Next steps after determining the stay - registration of insurance, ticket purchase, Visa, international driver's license and medical training.
Insurance. Medicine in Indonesia dear. Most household injury: a burn from the exhaust pipe of the bike, the bike with a drop, colds, etc. They may cost more than 1,000 dollars. Better play it safe and buy insurance for 35 - 40 dollars and not to worry about it later. We use the Alfa Insurance. Making online form insurance takes 20-30 minutes, and it will be ready within a few days.
Buying a ticket. For a person working in IT, with IT and IT around, buy a ticket - not a problem. There are many services, they all look like. The main drawback - not all show the best tickets, many do not show the final price and the price without commission and miscellaneous charges. But the most popular is still here will be your assistants. This domestic anywayanyday.ru, onetwotrip.ruforeign tickets.ru, skyscanner.ru, expedia.com and others. Here, as they say, every one to his own taste. And remember important points when choosing and buying a ticket: Such as the allowable baggage weight, the presence of a single ticket, the need for a visa for transit through a third country.
Visa application. worth $ 25 visa for Russian citizens is issued on arrival and. Extension - $ 50 for 1 month.
Making an International Driving Permit (IDP). The most comfortable means of travel on the island - the bike. As in Russia, to control it is necessary to have rights. Unfortunately, the local Russian law does not apply in Bali, as they do not meet international standards. But the design of the HLM - is not difficult. They can be issued by submitting an online application form and take a week. Or through traffic. In the first case, the cost ranges from 2400 to 3200 rubles, depending on the artist. Through state registration of rights for the service will cost 1000 rubles for 3 years. They make out differently over time. It is important to remember that without local IDP rights are not really.
LOF you definitely need if you plan to take a moped. So you will not annoy every cop, and you will be protected by insurance from injuries sustained in a vehicle driving (If there is no IDPs and you have fallen from moped, ie the risk that the insurance will not pay for your treatment, because you did not have the right to operate moped).
Medical training. Before leaving should undergo a medical examination by a dentist, therapist and your doctor. You should also get vaccinated against yellow fever and undergo chemical treatment of malaria. The percentage of low-risk disease, but we recommend to insure. The cost of vaccination against yellow fever - about 1,600 rubles, and malaria pills - 800 rubles.
