#2 Wireless headphones

I never knew just how good wireless headphones would be until I got some for myself. I’ve heard multiple people say AirPods are life-changing, and I can’t help but agree!

#3 A Coworking space

When you make the transition from working in an office to working remotely, there are a few things you’ll miss about having a place to go and focus every day (along with a LOT that you won’t miss!)

A good wireless mouse is extremely helpful when you’re working from your laptop all day. I’m not exactly sure why, but I enjoy working from a laptop more when I have the ease of a mouse.

#5 This map of airport wifi passwords around the world

One of the best parts about working remotely is well, working remotely! When you have the ability to work from anywhere in the world, airports will start to become a familiar place.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been caught with an uncharged laptop or phone (just ask my boss, Nomadic Matt!)

There have been many times during my remote work life where WiFi has not been available. But I’ve been able to access the internet in some pretty crazy places (even Madagascar!) thanks to SkyRoam!

#8 External hard drive

No matter what kind of work you do, it’s always important to have it backed up. Your laptop could crash at any moment, and having all of your files and photos elsewhere can be a lifesaver – especially when you’re working from a different place that you’re unfamiliar with and don’t know how to get technical help!

#9 The perfect carry-on bag/backpack

I always try to travel carry-on only. Sometimes that means just a backpack. People have called me crazy, but it honestly makes traveling so much less stressful.
