Welcome to the Nomada blog

The Nomada blog covers what changes between releases — the work in our heads that doesn't fit cleanly on a country page or a tool widget.

What we'll write about

• Visa launches and changes — Italy DNV updated income thresholds, Greece extended the non-dom window, Portugal restructured AIMA queues. We'll cover what shifts and why.
• City reports from the ground — neighborhoods we'd actually move to, ones we wouldn't, and the practical cost data the spreadsheets miss.
• Tools and how-to — short pieces on getting more out of the calculators (cost-of-living, FIRE, visa-day-tracking) and where they fit in real-world decisions.
• Tax and banking — cross-border money mechanics for nomads, including the bits expat tax pros usually charge $300 to explain.

What we won't write about

We won't post:

• Generic top-10 lists scraped from Reddit
• Affiliate-link reviews dressed up as "guides"
• AI slop padded out to hit a word count

The editorial line is the same as the rest of the site: confident, specific, honest about uncertainty.

Visa rules change quietly. Cost-of-living estimates are estimates. We say so where it matters and don't pretend otherwise elsewhere.

How this is built

The blog runs on Notion as a CMS — non-engineers edit there, the web app renders here. Posts are statically rendered with ~60s revalidation, so when we hit Publish it goes live within a minute.

A quick look at the filter that gates posts into production:

filter: { property: "Status", status: { equals: "Published" } }

If you spot a factual error or a visa rule we got wrong, email hello@nomada.tools — we fix things fast.

Welcome aboard.
