I finally get to tackle a topic that I’ve wanted to cover since CES 2019. Back then, I ran into a new friend, Nick Gray who was in the middle of a 15 month quest traveling all around the country as a digital nomad with a wife, two kids and a dog. And that was interesting enough by itself, but then i learned about the community of digital nomads out there, and my interest got even deeper. So, I sat down with Nick to talk about his travels and we’ll get to that, but first, let’s dive into the news of the week.
Check out the Gray Adventures featuring our guest Nick Gray and his family!
